berkeley thinks that locke's notion of an abstract idea is incoherent. group of answer choices true false

Answer 1

True. George Berkeley, an Irish philosopher, rejected John Locke's notion of abstract ideas and argued that they are incoherent. Berkeley believed that all ideas are derived from sense experience and that there is no such thing as a purely abstract idea that is not tied to sensory experience. He argued that the idea of an abstract idea is a contradiction in terms since all ideas are concrete and particular.
