    The exact breakdown everyone was locking for...
    in an extremely timely a fashion...
    clearly spoken and good audio...
    accompanied by suitable graphics...
    and a spat of humor thrown in there without diverging...
    One of the best presentations I've seen.
    I wish all youtubers were more like you.

      It's really cool to hear that my video worked for you when other stuff didn't. That means I can actually be useful, which is good to know. Thank you.

    I had a bad time studying for philosophy with videos explaining it in my home-language (portuguese), so I tried to see an english video and that actually worked. it was a different experience, so i bet that because of that i remembered almost everything. thank you so much, and sorry for bad grammar

    Thank you for this informative video! It summed up all their ideas really good, compact and in a funny way. Better than any german videos, that I've been watching earlier.

    Good point that Seneca was a philosopher without a beard. But looked like Rousseau didn't have one either. Unless you're saying that Seneca was first to not have a beard. Really like your video and points made. Thank you for making this. Hope you can talk about the stoics one day

    Does the notion of government by social contract even make sense, and if so, what is the best social contract that can be achieved? I would like to say John Locke

    Rousseau was not an advocate of direct democracy. "Were there a people of gods, their government would be democratic. So perfect a government is not for men.” General will is not popular vote.

    not absolute monarchy, but sovereignty

    • @okapmeinkap7311
      @okapmeinkap7311 7 лет назад

      It is sovereignty but what is absolute monarchy to Hobbes is constitutional government to Locke, and what is GENERAL WILL to JJR.

    While I agree with Hobbes on human nature, I tend to lean more towards Locke when it comes to implementing society.
    Jean, for all his wit, is simply a privileged man plagued by naivety.

    Hobbes literally says that there is nothing in the mind not gotten from experiences.

    • @alexy6133
      @alexy6133  7 лет назад +2

      Not quite. Here’s Hobbes in the Leviathan (I’m guessing you were referring to this passage): “For there is no conception in a mans mind, which hath not at first, totally, or by parts, been begotten upon the organs of Sense.” Hobbes here is saying that all of our *ideas* (“conceptions”) must start with some initial sense experience(s) (i.e. we cannot have any ideas without ever having first seen things, heard things, touched things, etc.). The important thing to know is that for Hobbes ideas/conceptions are not our only mental content. For him, we also have drives, which he divides into “appetites” (desires) and “aversions”, and these do not all come from our experience: “Of Appetites, and Aversions, some are born with men …”
      Sorry if I came off as argumentative, I'm grateful for all criticism.

    • @plinden
      @plinden 7 лет назад +1

      OK. Yes. I just thought you denied that Hobbes thought that all ideas comes from experience. He is clearly an empiricist. And yes self-preservation is for Hobbes an innate drive.

    Dont get me wrong. Though a C+ on the strength of your knowledge and presentation, but I will give you a B+ for effort. But remember, avoid making sweeping generalizations and when you deal with classics you really have to know your subjects before you make scholarly meaningful comparisons and contrasts.
