What is the core principle of
Locke's empiricism
?
Locke's empiricism
is based on the belief that there are "
no
innate ideas."
All ideas come from external sources, primarily through
sensation
and
reflection.
Ideas are anything that presents themselves to the
mind
, ranging from simple to
complex.
What are simple ideas according to Locke, and how are they categorized?
Simple ideas
are basic qualities that present themselves to the
mind.
Locke categorizes them into:
Primary
qualities: Quantitative attributes, such as size, shape, and motion.
Secondary qualities:
Qualitative
attributes, like colour, taste, and sound.
How are complex ideas formed according to Locke?
Complex ideas are combinations of simple ideas, derived from
sensations
and/or
reflections.
These
complex
ideas can be conceptualized by combining
multiple
simple ideas to form a more intricate understanding.
What does Locke mean by "substances" and how do they relate to qualities?
Locke defines
substances
as "something I know not what," representing a "supposed but unknown support of those qualities we find existing."
Substances are a support system for the bundles of qualities observed, though their exact
nature
remains unknown.
