Hume's Radical Scepticism

Omtale

In Hume's Radical Scepticism, Janet Broughton parts ways with current scholars who see Hume primarily as a naturalist philosopher pursuing the "science of man." Instead, she argues, Hume is a radical sceptic. Attending to Hume's literary strategies in A Treatise of Human Nature, she uncovers the philosophical significance of narration, irony, and what she calls "subjectivizing."
