G.W. Leibniz on Ideas - Dictionary of Arguments
Holz I 45/46 Ideas/perception/Locke: there are "ideas" mediated by more than one sense: e.g. The ideas expansion, shape, motion, etc. Ideas/perception/LeibnizVsLocke: these "ideas" (extent, duration, shape, etc.) come from the mind, not from the perception. They are the "ideas of the pure understanding." But they have a relation to the external world and are thus capable of definition and proof. >Definition/Leibniz, >Proof/Leibniz, cf. >Ideas/Kant, >Ideas/Locke._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
