    Extractions: 2. The cause of this is thought to be the obscurity of things, or the natural weakness and imperfection of our understandings. It is said, the faculties we have are few, and those designed by nature for the support and comfort of life, and not to penetrate into the inward essence and constitution of things. Besides, the mind of man being finite, when it treats of things which partake of infinity, it is not to be wondered at if it run into absurdities and contradictions, out of which it is impossible it should ever extricate itself, it being of the nature of infinite not to be comprehended by that which is finite. 4. My purpose therefore is, to try if I can discover what those Principles are which have introduced all that doubtfulness and uncertainty, those absurdities and contradictions, into the several sects of philosophy; insomuch that the wisest men have thought our ignorance incurable, conceiving it to arise from the natural dulness and limitation of our faculties.

    Extractions: The University of Adelaide Library eBooks Help Philosopher, eldest son of William B., a cadet of the noble family of Berkeley, born at Kilcrin near Kilkenny, and ed. at the school of his native place and at Trinity College, Dublin, where he graduated and took a Fellowship in 1707. His earliest publication was a mathematical one; but the first which brought him into notice was his Essay towards a New Theory of Vision , published in 1709. Though giving rise to much controversy at the time, its conclusions are now accepted as an established part of the theory of optics. There next appeared in 1710 the Treatise concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge , which was followed in 1713 by Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous , in which he propounded his system of philosophy, the leading principle of which is that the world as represented to our senses depends for its existence on being perceived. Of this theory the Principles gives the exposition and the Dialogues the defence. One of his main objects was to combat the prevailing materialism of the time. A theory so novel was, as might be expected, received with widespread ridicule, though his genius was realised by some of the more elect spirits, such as Dr. S. Clarke. Shortly afterwards B. visited England, and was received into the circle of Addison, Pope, and Steele. He then went to the Continent in various capacities, and on his return was made Lecturer in Divinity and Greek in his university, D.D. in 1721, and Dean of Derry in 1724. In 1725 he formed the project of founding a college in Bermuda for training ministers for the colonies, and missionaries to the Indians, in pursuit of which he gave up his deanery with its income of £1100, and went to America on a salary of £100. Disappointed of promised aid from Government he returned, and was appointed Bishop of Cloyne. Soon afterwards he published

Smoot, 61, leader of a research team that was able to image the infant universe, revealing a pattern of minuscule temperature variations which evolved into the universe we see today, has been awarded the 2006 Nobel Prize for physics. He shares the award with John C. Mather of NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The citation reads "for their discovery of the blackbody form and anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation." “A member of the Nobel Committee called me at around 2:45 AM, he had a Swedish accent and told me that John Mather and I were sharing the Nobel Prize in physics," said Smoot. "I soon talked to someone I knew personally and by the time the phone call had ended I was convinced it was legitimate. The ceremony is December 10, which is when I have scheduled a final exam for my students so I will have to do some rescheduling. The upside though is that maybe now my students will pay more attention to me.”

George Berkeley was born in or near Kilkenny, Ireland on 12 March 1685.

54. Berkeley, George
    Glossary of Religion and Philosophy Short Biography of george berkeley.  
    http://atheism.about.com/library/glossary/general/bldef_berkeley.htm
    
    Extractions: George Berkeley was an Irish philosopher who is most famous for his doctrine of extreme idealism (as opposed to realism), asserting that material substances and things do not exist. Instead, what we consider to be objects like rocks and chairs are really just "ideas" and sensations which only exist in our minds, not in any external reality. Berkeley based this conclusion on the argument that the qualities we perceive through our senses can only exist when perceived, as ideas in our minds. Because objects are nothing more than collections of such qualities, with no more fundamental "essence" behind them (also known as the "bundle theory"), then it follows that objects themselves are merely ideas in our minds, with no more fundamental "reality" behind them.

    Extractions: Career Best known as a philosopher and critic of Hobbes and Locke , his work on econoic questions is largely contained in The Querist in which the problems of Ireland are discussed as a series of some 900 questions. The originality of his method is its application of moral and theological concepts to the question of economic development. He argued that Irish development needed positive government intervention and the creation of an appropriate moral and social environment through the efforts of the Church. His work in economics, as distinct from his philosophical writings seems to have had little impact on later thinkers.

It is also a timely research topic, since it is now known that magnetic activity changes the Sun's luminosity and ultraviolet flux, both of which may have significant effects on the terrestrial environment. In our research group, we investigate a number of topics relating to the emergence of magnetic flux on the Sun and its consequences, including the formation of active regions, heating of the Solar corona, and the origin of Solar flares. We use both theoretical and observational approaches in our studies, including analytical work, numerical simulations, and the analysis of exciting new spacecraft data, such as that from the

    http://www.humanities.mq.edu.au/Ockham/z3612.html
    
    Extractions: This is cassette 12, concerned with more connexions between late medieval and early modern thought. The first writer we will look at is George Berkeley, who criticised Locke's theory of abstract ideas and put forward his own theory of universality. In the "Introduction" to his Principles of Human Knowledge (1710), Berkeley wrote: It was an endless, as well as an useless thing, to trace the Schoolmen, those great masters of abstraction, through all the manifold inextricable labyrinths of error and dispute, which their doctrine of abstract natures and notions seem to have led them into. What bickerings and controversies, and what a learned dust have been raised about these matters, and what mighty advantage hath been from thence derived to mankind, an things at this day too clearly known to need being insisted on. But despite this scorn, Berkeley enters into the cloud of dust and emerges with something quite like Ockham's theory of universals.
