本期节目探讨了约翰·洛克的生平、思想及其影响。洛克的思想在当时具有极大的风险,因为他挑战了君主制,为了表达自己的观点,他不得不流亡并使用化名,甚至面临着被处死的危险。他的思想对后世产生了深远的影响,堪比任何军事征服。节目中还探讨了洛克关于先天与后天、教育的观点。洛克反对理性主义者关于先天知识的观点,他提出了著名的“白板说”,认为人的知识来源于经验,人的大脑在出生时是一张白纸,后天的经验在其上书写。洛克认为感官经验是获得知识的第一步,理性在知识形成中也扮演重要角色。他还对当时的教育制度提出了批评,认为教育应该以兴趣为导向,而不是强迫学习。他建议在教育中加入舞蹈等活动,培养学生的姿态和行动能力,并认为学习应该是一种快乐和有意义的体验,而不是一种负担。

Shownotes Transcript

On this episode of the podcast, we continue our discussion of John Locke. We first admire how brave Locke was to share his ideas during a time when dissent earned you the privilege of being drawn and quartered (literally… quartered). Next, we discuss Locke’s views on the Nature vs. Nurture debate and how they differed from those of the Continental Rationalists. Finally, we find out what kind of changes Locke would make if he were the Secretary of Education (e.g., more dancing and less required reading). All this and more on the latest episode of Philosophize This!
