Camilo Silva, « Leibniz Reader of Locke: Spring and Elaboration of the New Essays on Human Understanding », HAL-SHS : philosophie, ID : 10.35588/cc.v2i2.5261
This contribution aims to examine and to describe the spring and elaboration of Leibniz’s New Essays on human understanding (1704 (?)). The interest of this study rests not only in attempting to reveal the historical and theorical articulation in which stages that precede the redaction itself of Leibniz’s New Essays take place -and which correspond to an almost ten years period that coincide with the beginning of the late maturation of Leibniz’s philosophy-, but also in mitigating the strictly epistemological connotation that used to be attributed to, underlying the metaphysical and theological motivations Leibniz had to write his book in reply to Locke’s Essay concerning human understanding (1690).
