The Fourth Meditation and Cartesian Circles
Philosophical Annals: Special Issue on Descartes' Epistemology 68 (2):119-138 (2020)
Abstract
We offer a novel interpretation of the argumentative role that Meditation IV plays within the whole of the Meditations. This new interpretation clarifies several otherwise head-scratching claims that Descartes makes about Meditation IV, and it fully exonerates the Fourth Meditation from either raising or exacerbating Descartes’ circularity problems.Author Profiles
