Locke’s credentials in this regard are called into question, however, by Rousseau’s Emile, which views Some Thoughts Concerning Education as a broadly conservative text, aiming less at self-governance than conformity to parental and societal values. Locke, Rousseau contends, fails to recognize the specificity of childhood by catapulting children prematurely into the world of adult reason and morality, as evidenced, for example, by his injunction that parents sensitize children to social approval by teaching them to care about their reputations. This chapter defends Locke as a pioneer of child-responsive education by situating his argument about reputation in the context of the understanding of moral development he outlines in the Essay Concerning Human Understanding. Locke identifies regulation in childhood by what the Essay calls the law of opinion as a potential springboard for self-regulation in adulthood. Rousseau’s suggestion that male children be governed by the laws of nature or necessity as opposed to the law of opinion produces a split between the developments of reason and morality that is never healed in Emile. It also splits the experiences of male and female children in ways that prohibit egalitarian relations between the sexes. Rousseau’s claim to be the first thinker to truly discover childhood, a claim that resonates in histories of education today, relies on a contestable displacement of Locke’s contributions to child-responsive education.","PeriodicalId":240550,"journal":{"name":"The Lockean Mind","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133688383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to later understandings of empiricism, Locke goes out of his way to state that his project to investigate and articulate the ‘logic of ideas’ is not a scientific project: “I shall not at present meddle with the Physical consideration of the Mind” (Essay, I.i.2). Locke further specifies that this means his analysis of mental processes will not engage with knowledge of the brain (e.g. in terms of corpuscles and animal spirits), even though he had been the student of Thomas Willis. Now, Kant seemed to make an elementary mistake, given such a clear statement on Locke’s part, when he claimed that Locke’s project was a “physiology of the understanding” (in the Preface to the A edition of the first Critique). One can ask of course what this physiology of the understanding was, and if it existed, in or out of the Lockean intellectual world (as I have sought to investigate in a 2016 paper). This leads me to inquire into the outcome of his empiricism for a scientific treatment of the mind, including in the sense of a ‘naturalization’ of the mind (with implications also for our understanding of empiricism: Anstey’s influential distinction between experimental and speculative philosophy does not seem useful here). Because if Kant made this charge, there were also many 18century thinkers who positively treated Locke as their great forerunner in psychology and related fields: Charles Bonnet and Joseph Priestley among them, just as some prominent physicians such as Cabanis claimed to be ‘finishing the job’ that Locke had started in, e.g. their materialist theories of the passions. What one might term ‘the Locke Problem’ here is: how can one reconcile empiricism and claims about cerebral processes, while seeking to remain a Lockean? Differently put, what is the process of naturalization, a naturalization of?","PeriodicalId":240550,"journal":{"name":"The Lockean Mind","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125187774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
