Adventures in Philosophy: René Descartes - The Classic Philosophers: René Descartes

René Descartes (1596-1650) is sometimes regarded as the founder of modern philosophy. He was a rationalist and metaphysical dualist. He opposed the old authorities and emphasized the practical character of philosophy. "Philosophy is a perfect knowledge of all that man can know, as well for the conduct of his life as for the preservation of his health and the discovery of all the arts."
