Empiricism Made Easy 1: Self and Intersubjectivity 2: The Subject of Trust 3: The Conversable Intellect 4: Essays in Experience 5: Romantic Empiricism Conclusion BibliographyReviewsMilnes's book is a finely discriminating and persuasive contribution to the scholarly debate on philosophies of intersubjectivity and disinterestedness, candid conversational style amid social conventions, and ethics that lies at the very heart of Hazlitt's incomparable achievements as an essayist. * Philipp Hunnekuhl, Hazlitt Review * To immerse oneself in The Testimony of Sense is to gain a stratosphere's eye view of Humean empiricism and style, like a satellite image of a philosophical river delta fanning out into distributaries of varying lengths and circuities. This book is also a veritable atlas of the essay, one that charts a sea-change in the relationship between philosophy and literature between 1740 and 1820. * Sara Landreth, Eighteenth-Century Fiction * Milnes's book is a finely discriminating and persuasive contribution to the scholarly debate on philosophies of intersubjectivity and disinterestedness, candid conversational style amid social conventions, and ethics that lies at the very heart of Hazlitt's incomparable achievements as an essayist. * Philipp Hunnekuhl, Hazlitt Review * Author InformationTim Milnes is Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Edinburgh.
