Overview
I'm working on a philosophy writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Answer the following questions with the following criteria in mind: a) how closely you respond to what the question requires, b) evidence of knowledge of the material, and c) coherence.
Q1: What is Hume’ problem of causation? How does the problem of induction follow from this? Support your answer with either a familiar or unfamiliar example (of a case where something is inferred from a present fact and supposed to stand in a cause-effect relationship).
Q2: What is Hume’s bundle theory of the self? Describe this view briefly in your own words.
Q3: What does Kant’s “Copernican revolution” consist of, i.e., how is it a revolution over previous rationalist and empiricist approaches in philosophy?
Q4: Kant’s famous phrase goes: “Thoughts without content are empty, intuitions without concepts are blind”. Explain this statement briefly.
