Description
During the 17th century, René Descartes played a key role in the bourgeoning scientific revolution. His Discourse on the Method is an explanation of his new philosophies and original scientific method. Throughout the work, Descartes traces his intellectual development in order to explain how he created his new method. The work is a reaction against the Aristotelian philosophy in which Descartes was first educated. Rather than providing Descartes with certainty, the Aristotelian philosophy only instilled Descartes with doubts. Descartes examines all that he feels he knows for sure, and eventually, he sets forth his now-famous maxim “I think, therefore, I am.” Descartes’ emphasis on skepticism and doubt allows him to examine the world in a pure and unbiased way. This new method of reasoning and understanding became one of the most influential works in philosophical and scientific studies. Even today, his writing still proves important in the way we gather information and understand the world around us.
