Problematičnost základní teze Humova empirismu

Abstract: The article analyzes the basic assumptions of Hume's empiricism as it is developed in A Treatise of Human Nature and tries to shed light on their dubiousness. There is Hume's primary thesis explaining the relation between impressions and ideas in the centre of the attention - particularly with respect to the question of possibility of general assertions (which is the same with the question of the status of logic in Hume's philosophical system), the question of the legitimacy of the distinction between ideas and impressions and the question of difference between the mind and the consciousness. Inspired by the Husserlian critique on Hume and after having further developed these three fundamental questions, the article comes to detection of hidden metaphysical dualistic premises of the system of Treatise which hinder the Humean skepticism to dissolve all conceivable knowledge.
