Question
George Berkeley argued that there was no essential connection between this faculty and touch in a tract expounding a “new theory” of it. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name this faculty. “Molyneux’s Problem” asks whether a person who suddenly obtains this sensory faculty, which includes color perception, would be able to recognize a cube from previously touching it.
ANSWER: vision [or sight; accept seeing]
[10m] This thinker’s response to the problem imagines a man who is blind, paralyzed, and deaf. This philosopher’s Inquiry into the Original of Our Ideas of Beauty and Virtue lists several “internal” senses, like the “moral” sense.
ANSWER: Francis Hutcheson
[10h] In his Treatise on Sensations, Etienne de Condillac radicalized Molyneux’s question with a thought experiment involving one of these beings, which obtains each sense in isolation from the others.
ANSWER: a statue [or a sculpture]
