In this course lecture/discussion video from my Spring 2013 Introduction to Philosophy class at Marist College, we continue and complete our study of Rene Descartes' Discourse on Method, focusing in particular on all of part 4, some of part 5, and a bit of part 6 of the Discourse. We discuss the famous Cartesian "cogito, ergo sum," Descartes argument for God's existence, his criterion of "clear and distinct" perception for knowledge, the "Cartesian Circle", Mind-Body dualism, and then finish up by discussing how to tell humans apart from robots

I am taking a Humanities Course and my first paper was about Descartes' Discourse on Method IV...I read this several times and still had difficulty understanding the concepts. I watched this video and was able to write an A paper...because I understood what was going on. Thank you so very much for making this available.
You're welcome
Your videos have helped me grow more interested in Descartes. Thank you very much :)
finish\ed up Descartes with my students last week -- here's the lecture video
OMG! It's the Dude.
“This is a very complicated case Maude. You know, a lotta ins, a lotta outs, lotta what-have-yous.” - The Dude
That's my kind of philosophy.
@@DocTarnation Yes, people have been saying that for some time
@@GregoryBSadler Haha! Since you replied, please let me say that your lecture on Descartes is excellent. I am putting together a course on Sun Tzu (and a generalized approach to strategic thinking) and got wondering if Descartes' description of method might help clarify Sun Tzu's notion of method. Your lectures have helped immensely.
I am getting ready for finals, and listening to just one of your classes has helped me so much...I really wished you had made one on Loeb's solution to the Cartesian Circle....Thank you so much for making the time to explain something that can be confusing so well...Please continue the good work, many will be appreciate what you do...
Glad to read that the video was useful for you
I need to analyze this for a presentation and this helped me a bunch thanks !! :)
You're welcome
Thank you very much for this presentation. Great explanation and very useful. Greetings from Denmark :)
stffnhnsn11 You're welcome! Glad it was useful for you!
I can certainly say that meditation can clear your mind and dont have to be dependant on mobile phone or any of that stuff, maybe it helps but in long term what does that bring to us .
Great Video, Thank you so much!
