study reason to find out what is beyond the
capability of reason. Hume began his first

Descartes is famed by is familiar notion, I think
therefore I am (Cogito, ergo sum. ). It is a
conclusion he has reached in his second meditation
after much deliberation on the existence of
anything certain. After he discovers his ability
to doubt and to understand, he is able to
substantiate his necessary existence as a
consequence. What we doubt or understand may not
ultimately correspond, but we can never be
uncertain that we are in the process of thought.
This idea is a major component in De...

Jane Austen, like her most beloved heroine,
Elizabeth Bennet, is a keen observer of the nature
of man in society. To simplify her studies, and to
give her readers a better understanding of the
concept of Pride and Prejudice, Austen does not
focus our attention on the larger social structure
as a whole, but skillfully directs our
consideration only to a small, isolated segment of
the society. In Pride and Prejudice, Austen
scrutinizes a microcosm, people dwelling within
similar cultural and socia...

Understanding Of Human Nature Point In The Story

In 1726, Jonathan Swift published a book for
English readers. Primarily, however, Gulliver s
Travels is a work of satire. Gulliver is neither a

distinguishable persona; rather, he is a satiric
device enabling Swift to score satirical points
(Radio 124). Indeed, whereas the work begins with
more specific satire, attacking perhaps one
political machine or aimed at one particular
custom in each instance, it finishes with the most
savage onslaught on ...
