Clauberg was not only among the first followers of  Descartes (whose philosophy he taught from 1650 in Herborn and from  1652 until the end of his life in Duisburg) but also assured its  survival as an academic philosophy by giving it a more traditional and  more didactic expression. A first group of articles deals with  Clauberg's early metaphysics as it found its expression in his  \u003cem\u003eOntosophia\u003c\/em\u003e of 1646 (republished with very considerable changes  in 1664), the way it was influenced by Comenius (Leinsle), its  relation to Malebranche (Bardout) and Wolff (École) and the way  in which it illustrates the difficulties of a Cartesian ontology in  general (Carraud). A second group of articles deals with problems of  knowledge: knowledge of God (Goudriaan), perceptual knowledge (Spruit)  and causality (Pätzold). There are also articles on Clauberg's  curious attempt to deal philosophically with the etymology of the  German language (Weber), Clauberg as a teacher of Descartes'  \u003cem\u003ePrincipia\u003c\/em\u003e (Verbeek), Clauberg's conception of corporeal  substance (Mercer), and Clauberg's relation to later, more radical  developments in Cartesian philosophy, especially in Lodewijk Meyer  (Albrecht). The volume is completed by a biographical introduction and  a short title bibliography of Clauberg's works, which allows an  appreciation of Clauberg's lasting international influence. It is the  first study on this scale of one of the most influential philosophers  of the seventeenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1999-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792358312\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-9237-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234.0cm x156.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 216.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378882240652,"sku":"9780792358312","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792358312.jpg?v=1765470589","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792358312","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
