The focus of the course is on David Hume’s (1711–1776) epistemology, metaphysics, and metaphilosophy (arguably the core of his philosophical project). We shall examine the relation between the early and the mature version of his views, studying closely A Treatise of Human Nature, book I (1739), An Enquiry concerning Human Understanding (1748) and the transitional texts.
