Further fate John Locke was 34 years old when fate brought him together with a man who greatly influenced his entire future biography - Lord Ashley, later Earl of Shaftesbury. First, Locke was with him in 1667 as a family doctor and tutor to his son, and later served as a secretary, and this prompted him to enter politics himself. Shaftesbury gave him great support, introducing him into political and economic circles, giving him the opportunity to take part in public administration himself. In 1668, Locke became a member of the Royal Society of London, and the following year he was a member of its Council. He does not forget about other types of activity: for example, in 1671 he had an idea for a work to which he would devote 16 years and which would become the main one in his philosophical heritage - “An Experiment on Human Understanding”, dedicated to the study of the cognitive potential of man.

    • "Two treatises on state government",
    • "Some Thoughts on Education"
    • famous treatise "An Essay on Human Understanding".

    He also published many articles, letters, notes, where issues of economics, politics, ethics, religion, and pedagogy are considered. A number of works were published by Locke under false names (he always feared that he might suffer the fate of Algernon Sidney, who was hanged in the time of Charles II for having found in his papers the manuscript of the Discourse on Government, where the theory of the social contract was defended).

    slide 5

    Locke's main philosophical work is An Essay on the Human Mind. Locke continued the development of Bacon's empiricism, substantiating the sensationalist direction (the direction that recognizes sensations, perceptions as the only source of knowledge) in the theory of knowledge. Locke believed that knowledge comes from experience, and experience is made up of sensations.

    Locke's theory was:

    1) there are no innate ideas, all knowledge is born in experience;

    2) the soul or mind of a person at birth is like a blank slate;

    3) there is nothing in the intellect that was not previously in sensations, in feelings.

    slide 6

    Locke criticized Descartes' doctrine of "innate" ideas.

    The sensations received by a person from his environment, according to Locke, are the first and decisive basis of all knowledge. Locke divides experience into two types: external experience (sensations) and internal (reflection). The source of the first is the objective material world that affects our senses and causes sensations. Internal experience, through reflection, is directed to the observation of one's own observations.

    Slide 7

    Ideas according to J. Locke

    Locke divides all ideas (representations into simple and complex.) Simple ideas, according to Locke, are formed directly from sensations and reflection. Simple ideas are passive, they seem to be imposed on us from outside. Complex ideas require the activity of the mind. This activity is reduced to combining simple representations. In this way, according to Locke, even the most complex, abstract ideas are formed.

    Slide 8

    Locke was one of the first philosophers to consider sensory perceptions caused by the external world as the starting point of all mental life. This is one of the main provisions of the materialistic theory of knowledge.

    Thus, Locke laid the foundation for empirical psychology, in which paramount importance was attached to self-observation (introspection).

    Slide 9

    The following main provisions of the philosophy of John Locke can be distinguished:

    • the world is materialistic;
    • knowledge can be based only on experience ("there is nothing in the thoughts (mind) of a person that was not in the feelings before");
    • consciousness is an empty room (empty cabinet), which during life is filled with experience (in this regard, Locke's statement about consciousness as a "blank slate" on which experience is written - tabularasa is world-famous);
    • the source of experience is the external world;
    • the purpose of philosophy is to help a person achieve success in his activities;
    • the ideal of a person is a calm, law-abiding, respectable gentleman who improves his level of education and achieves good results in his profession;
    • the ideal of the state is a state built on the basis of the separation of powers into legislative, executive (including the judiciary) and federal (foreign policy). Locke was the first to put forward this idea, and this is his great merit.
  • Slide 10

    The English empiricist philosopher John Locke (1632 - 1704) developed many of the philosophical ideas of Bacon and Hobbes, put forward a number of his own theories, and continued the empirical and materialistic tradition of English philosophy of modern times.

    John Locke was sure that by consciously influencing the mind and soul of a person, anything can be achieved from him: a person in his view was a kind of tabula rasa - a blank slate on which education and upbringing write their letters.

    Philosophy of knowledge

    Locke considers reason to be the main tool of knowledge,
    which puts the individual above the rest
    sentient beings."
    The subject of philosophy English thinker
    sees
    before
    Total
    in
    research
    patterns
    human
    understanding.
    Determine the capabilities of the human mind, and,
    accordingly, identify those areas that
    act as natural limits
    human knowledge by virtue of its very
    structure, means to direct human efforts to
    solution
    real
    problems
    related
    With
    practice.

    Philosophy of knowledge

    The only object of human thought
    is an idea. Unlike Descartes, who
    position of "innateness of ideas", Locke argues that
    all without exception ideas, concepts and principles (as
    private and general), which we find in
    the human mind, have their origin in experience, and in
    serve as one of the most important sources
    sensory impressions. Such an educational
    the attitude was called sensationalism.
    Sensationalism - a direction in theory
    knowledge, according to which sensations and
    perception - the main and main form
    reliable knowledge.

    Philosophy of knowledge

    Fundamental to all empirical
    philosophy the idea that experience is so
    inseparable limit of all possible
    knowledge.
    Experience consists of external and internal:
    1) we feel material objects
    2) we perceive the activity of our mind,
    the movement of our thoughts.
    Our knowledge can go so far
    as far as experience allows us

    Philosophy of knowledge

    IDEAS
    Simple
    Simple ideas serve
    the material of all our
    knowledge; they are formed
    through sensations and
    reflections. From
    connection of sensation with
    reflection arise
    simple ideas of the sensual
    reflections, for example
    pleasure, pain, strength and
    others
    Complex
    Feelings first give impetus
    to the birth of single
    ideas, and as
    the mind is mastered with them,
    they fit in memory.
    Accordingly, complex
    ideas come when
    simple ideas get
    higher level for
    account of human actions
    mind. Locke became one of the founders of the "Treaty"
    theory of the origin of the state.
    John Locke named one of the key
    characters from the cult television series "Stay in
    alive."
    He also took the surname Locke as a pseudonym
    one of the heroes of a series of fantasy novels
    Orson Scott Card "Ender's Game". In Russian
    translation of the English name "Locke" is incorrect
    Referred to as "Loki".
    The surname Locke is the main character in the film
    Michelangelo Antonioni "Profession: reporter"
    1975 and the protagonist of the 2013 film of the same name
    (dir. Steven Knight) performed by Tom
    Hardy.

    Pedagogical ideas
    Locke was one
    one of the founders of the empirical-sensualistic theory of knowledge.
    He thought
    that a person has no innate ideas.
    Man is born
    being a "blank slate" and ready to perceive the world around us through our feelings through inner experience - reflection
    .

    Target
    education
    - the education of a gentleman who knows how to conduct his affairs sensibly and prudently, an enterprising person, refined in handling. Locke saw the end goal of education as providing a healthy mind in a healthy
    body.
    Developed a gentleman education system based on
    pragmatism
    and
    rationalism
    . The main feature of the system is
    utilitarianism
    : each subject should prepare for life.

    Locke
    does not separate education from moral and physical education. Education should consist in the formation of physical and moral habits, habits of reason and will in the educated person. The goal of physical education is to form the body into an instrument as obedient as possible to the spirit; the goal of spiritual education and training is to create a straight spirit that would act in all cases in accordance with the dignity of a rational being. Locke insists that children train themselves to self-observation, self-restraint, and victory over
    yourself.

    Basic didactic principle
    - in learning to rely on the interest and curiosity of children. The main educational means are the example and the environment. Stable positive habits are brought up by affectionate words and gentle suggestions. Physical punishment is used only in exceptional cases of daring and systematic disobedience. The development of the will occurs through the ability to endure difficulties, which is facilitated by physical exercises and hardening.

    Fundamentals of the rule of law
    Locke founds
    the origin of the state on the assumption
    mutual agreement
    , concluded with the consent of all citizens, and they, waiving the right to personally protect their property and punish violators of the law, provide this to the state. The government consists of men elected by common consent to oversee the exact observance of the laws established for the preservation of the general liberty and welfare. Upon entering the state, a person submits only to these laws, and not to the arbitrariness and whim of unlimited power.
    State of despotism
    worse than the state of nature, because in the latter everyone can defend his right, and before a despot he does not have this freedom. The breach of contract empowers the people to claim back their sovereign right. From these basic provisions, the internal form of the state structure is consistently derived.

    State
    gets power:
    1.Publish
    laws that determine the amount of punishment for various crimes, that is, legislative power;
    2. Punish
    crimes committed by members of the union, that is, executive power;
    3. Punish
    offenses inflicted on the alliance by external enemies, that is, the right to war and
    peace.
