About This Podcast

In this thought-provoking work, David Hume, the distinguished Scottish philosopher, historian, and essayist, delves into the essence and foundation of morals. Written as an accessible summary of Book III from his seminal work, A Treatise of Human Nature, Hume invites us to ponder a critical debate Are morals derived from reason or sentiment? Do we understand them through logic and induction, or by instinctive feelings and a subtle internal sense? He challenges us to consider whether moral truths are universal for all rational beings or if they vary based on the unique constitution of humanity. (Excerpted from Section I – Of the General Principles of Morals) (Summary from the text and adapted from Wikipedia by lubee930)
