Six Metaphysical Meditations-René Descartes

from Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion Hosted by David Hume

Six Metaphysical Meditations by René Descartes. These are six meditations by the French philosopher Rene Descartes, best known for his conclusion "Cogito, ergro sum" "I Think, therefore I exist". They are called meditations because he clearly describes his deep reasoning on each topic. Each topic has objections made by Thomas Hobbs and Descartes' responses. The six topics are Of Things Doubtful Of the Nature of Mans Mind, and that ’tis easier Proved to Be then our Body Of God, and that there Is a God Of Truth and Falsehood Of the Essence of Things Material, and herein again of God, and that He does Exist. Featured on Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion. Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org). This episode includes AI-generated content.
