Cartesianism, as a book category, centers on the philosophy of René Descartes and its legacy, focusing on methodic doubt, the cogito, mind-body dualism, rationalist foundations of knowledge, and the mathematical-mechanistic view of nature. It includes Descartes’ primary texts and translations; scholarly commentaries; historical studies of his metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of mind, and scientific method; and examinations of Cartesianism’s impact on early modern science, logic, and theology. The category also features responses and developments by contemporaries and successors—such as Princess Elisabeth, Arnauld, Malebranche, Spinoza, and Leibniz—as well as modern critiques and reinterpretations of Cartesian themes in philosophy, cognitive science, and related fields.
