11 mai 1632 - John Locke
Description:
Locke had completed one of history’s greatest late papers (An Essay Concerning Human Understanding), in which he famously argued that the mind at birth is a tabula rasa—a “blank slate”—on which experience writes. This idea, adding to Bacon’s ideas, helped form modern empiricism, the idea that what we know comes from experience, and that observation and experimentation enable scientific knowledge.Ajouté au bande de temps:
