Metaphysics - Book by Arnold Geulincx

Name: Metaphysics
Author: Arnold Geulincx

Arnold Geulincx was a 17th-century Flemish philosopher best known for his work on metaphysics, particularly in relation to Cartesian dualism. In his key work, Metaphysics, Geulincx builds upon Descartes' ideas of the mind-body distinction, arguing for a system of "occasionalism," where God intervenes in the physical world to ensure the harmony between the mental and physical realms. Geulincx's metaphysical system emphasizes the limits of human knowledge and the necessity of divine mediation. His theories contributed to the development of early modern philosophy and had an influence on later thinkers like Leibniz.
