فيلسوف الشبهات : تهافت العقلانية الذاتية للكوجيتو الديكارتي

Abstract EN

In his study “The Philosopher of Specious Arguments”, the Egyptian scholar Mohammad Othman al-Khasht examines Descartes’s rationality concerning the overall fields of knowledge addressed by his philosophical system.

Al-Khasht demonstrates the elements of weakness in Descartes’s rational methodology; he begins by refuting the claim to clearness and superiority in Descartes’s philosophy, then disproves the allegation of the firmness and meaningfulness of Descartes’s philosophical structure, and finally expresses the presence of a clear contradiction in Descartes’s doubt and certainty regarding the logic of nature from one hand and the logic of religious belief from the other and his inability to harmonize between them.
