Realistic Interpretation of Alleged G. Berkeley’s Idealism
Abstract
The article presents an attempt to point out that Berkeley’s achievements, despite the alleged consensus, cannot be located in the area of subjective idealism. Regardless of the formulations of Berkeley himself, who was not semantically clear, one can maintain the thesis that the world did not lose its position of real being for him, only that the reality of this world was totally dependent on the activity of the divine being. The philosopher rightly pointed out the indispensability of subjective approaches to access to the world. Without a proper ontology for the idea, Berkeley was unable to “tear” the idea from the mind, but it meant “being for the mind”.
