  1. « Reid said the business, but Berkeley did it. ».Laurent Jaffro - 2010 - Revue Philosophique de la France Et de l'Etranger 135 (1):135-149.
    L’article expose et discute l’interprétation de l’immatérialisme de Berkeley par James Frederick Ferrier. Dans deux articles denses , contre l’historiographie reidienne dominante, celui-ci rejette la thèse selon laquelle Berkeley souscrit à la méthode des idées et par là aux principes élémentaires du représentationnalisme.

  • George Combe and common sense.Sean Dyde - 2015 - British Journal for the History of Science 48 (2):233-259.
    This article examines the history of two fields of enquiry in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Scotland: the rise and fall of the common sense school of philosophy and phrenology as presented in the works of George Combe. Although many previous historians have construed these histories as separate, indeed sometimes incommensurate, I propose that their paths were intertwined to a greater extent than has previously been given credit. The philosophy of common sense was a response to problems raised by Enlightenment (...)
