Descartes' Meditations: Response to the Fourth Set of Objections (Live Reading)

We'll be starting from Latin 219. If possible, read the objections in advance.

Descartes' Meditations are a classic of philosophy typically taken as kicking off the modern period of philosophy. In the text, Descartes seeks to knock down and rebuild all of what he knows in order to finally find security in his cognitions and a path forward for securing knowledge of God and man's nature.

We welcome both beginners and advanced readers.
