A famous proponent of subjective idealism was 18th century Irish philosopher George Berkeley . This theory has much in common with Phenomenalism , the view that physical objects, properties, events, etc. (whatever is physical) are reducible to mental objects, properties, events, etc. Thus Reality is ultimately made up of only mental objects, properties, events, etc. Subjective Idealism, effectively Solipsism, is the denial of any existence outside of the self. The person who believes this maintains that all existence seemingly outside of their own consciousness is actually just a product of their consciousness. It is radically different from Objective Idealism, was not maintained by renowned Philosopher Bishop Berkeley, and is a very rarely held view. If looking for the work of Berkeley, search for "Objective Idealism" and "Existence in the Mind of God". SEE ALSO |
