friar, Philosopher, Catholic priest, and Doctor of the Church. He is an immensely influential philosopher, theologian, and jurist in the tradition of scholasticism, within which he is also known as the Doctor Angelicus and the Doctor Communis. Born: 1225, Roccasecca, Italy Died: 7 March 1274, Abbazia di Fossanova, Italy Realism, for this thinker, was shown in his belief in the reality of matters. Matter, the material substance out of which the world is made did not co-exist with God before the creation of the universe. Matter is not uncaused essence or existence. It is dependent upon God for existence. JOHN AMOS COMENIUS
Czech philosopher, pedagogue and theologian
from the Margraviate of Moravia who is considered the father of modern education. Born: 28 March 1592, Margraviate of Moravia Died: 15 November 1670, Amsterdam, Netherlands The mind of man is like a spherical mirror suspended in a room which reflects images of all things that are around it. The room is the external world while the mirror is the mind of man. Everything in that world reflects its image upon man’s mind. RENE DESCARTES French philosopher, mathematician, and scientist. A native of the Kingdom of France, he spent about 20 years of his life in the Dutch Republic after serving for a while in the Dutch States Army of Maurice of Nassau, Prince of Orange and the Stadtholder of the United Provinces. Born: 31 March 1596, France Died: 11 February 1650, Stockholm, Sweden Believes that the physical world is real and his senses are not deceived. The external world appears to be real just as his senses experience it. Since he believes in God as a Perfect Being, and hence, perfectly good, God would not stoop to deception. The reality of the world is guaranteed to him by the goodness of god. BARUCH SPINOZA (BENEDICT DE SPINOZA) Jewish-Dutch philosopher of Portuguese Sephardi origin. One of the early thinkers of the Enlightenment and modern biblical criticism, including modern conceptions of the self and the universe, he came to be considered one of the great rationalists of 17th-century philosophy. Born: 24 November 1632, Amsterdam, Netherlands Died: 21 February 1677, The Hague, Netherlands Believes that there is only one substance and this is identical with God. God has two attributes, Thought and extension. Whereas the idealists are concerned with the former, the realists are concerned with the latter. JOHN LOCKE English philosopher and physician, widely regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers and commonly known as the "Father of Liberalism". Born: 29 August 1632, Wrington, United Kingdom Died: 28 October 1704, High Laver, United Kingdom Believes that there are no innate ideas in the mind. At birth, it is just like a blank sheet of paper upon which the world writes its impressions. Experience is the source of all knowledge. And sensation and reason are the two avenues through which this knowledge come to us. IMMANUEL KANT Influential German philosopher in the Age of Enlightenment. In his doctrine of transcendental idealism, he argued that space, time, and causation are mere sensibilities; "things-in-themselves" exist, but their nature is unknowable. Born: 22 April 1724, Konigsberg Died: 12 February 1804, Konigsberg Asserts that our sensory experiences and perceptive are representations of the external world and not direct presentations of it. Our experience of the world is private.it is different from the world out there. Our minds do not affect the object we experience neither do those objects depend upon us for existence. However, when we experience objects, there is something in that object out there which gives sense impressions. REALISM is the refinement of our acceptance of the world as being just that it appears to be, and that things are the same as they are before entering our consciousness and remain unchanged through our experience. IDEALISM Is a philosophical theory that maintains that the real is of the nature of thought that the object of external perceptions consists of ideas. Idealism asserts that reality is composed of thought related to mind and idea, and that matter is mere by product of its workings. Plato regards the real and significant things in this world as ideas. For him “ideas” did not mean anything mental with existence dependent upon the mind of man. The world of matter is perceived clearly to man through his senses and faculties. Sight, hearing, Smell, Taste or Touch.
