"david hume. what a champ, man" and i love this already

dude, your classes are great. I hope you keep putting them on the internet

51:47 contemporary psychology did use this tool in question, at the beginning of the last century, it was called 'introspection'. It was the method of the structuralist approach to psycholgy, founded by E. Titchener. Funny thing is this: Titchener was a student of Wilhelm Wundt. Wilhelm Wundt was the founder of modern psychology, so to say, opened the first scientific lab for psychology 1879 in Leipzig, Germany. Another student of Wundt was a guy named Raoul Richter. And Richter, on his part, was the guy that produced the authorative German translation of which work? - right: the Enquiry of Human Understanding by David Hume!

I wish i could attend Adma's classes in person. So delighted watching every lecture. :)

Masterwork with this class

Thank you so much for all the wonderful content, Adam!

your videos have been great to help me understand some subjects I just wasn't grasping from my own professors. Thanks a lot! wish there were more like you.

Thank you for sharing all these videos!

Thank you for uploading this video, Adam. helped a lot with consolidating these concepts

Love this ! Using as a supplement for my philosophy class.

I love reading along these lecturers. The explanations are every clear but, ideally, the tangents would reduce in amount and duration. But some of these are probably helpful keeping the students engaged and putting some perspective.

well, thanks a lot for sharing your classes. I never had the opportunity of going for a school with such subjects as philosophy and sociology. Americans are SO lucky. You guys have no Idea how easy your life is because of your teachers and the structure they have. I just got to know ....espinosa, bousset, hobbes, locke, hume,burke, kant, heiddeger.... None of my friends have a clue about the existence of their thoughts. Our knowledge is yet so primitive. we, the humankind, have a long way to go.

Love this. Thank you.

55:55 Sect 2

love the lecture. subbed

this is the best lecture I have ever seen

You are a golden God

Thank you for these clear and engaging lectures. And more thanks for calling out on the bullcrap that is postmodernism (at least, the majority of it).

Thank you for the video, helps a lot. Please keep posting. I really enjoy your lecture. Can you also share your lecture on Bernard williams?

45:39 hahaha! I was waiting for you to say it, say post-modernism! Thumbs up for this one Mr. Rosenfeld! ^^

Would existentialism count as practical philosophy done well (for the most part)?

All of the information on Hume could be condensed into 25 minutes.

I picked up to books of hume and idk if ill like it should i read them

Adam was my professor at SonyBrook

First good point is at the 49th minute

My modern philosophy professor would be jealous rn if he knew i understood this lecture over his sorry dr pearson .. but it’s clear now 😅

The first 30 min there is nothing about Hume! I really felt like I wasted my time during first 30 minutes. :(

Notes: Practical philosophy in today's time at base is what you could make a meme of.

Jeremy Piven does philosophy

Too much off-topic talk for me. But still interesting for students I guess

This is cringey and condescending. Trying to be cool and talking down to students isn't the way.
