George Berkeley
1685-1753, Anglo-Irish philosopher and clergyman; b. Ireland. Going beyond the teachings of John LOCKE, Berkeley's subjective IDEALISM holds that there is no existence of matter independent of perception; the
observing mind of God makes possible the continued apparent existence of material objects. Among his more
important works are his Essay towards a New Theory of Vision (1709), A Treatise Concerning the Principles of
Human Knowledge (1710), and Three Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous (1713).
