英语词汇cartesian的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Cartesian. Cartesian refers to the philosophy of René Des- cartes (1596–1650) and his followers, deriving from Cartesius, the Latinized form of his name. The French philosopher was an eminent mathematician who based the starting point of his philosophy on the famous phrase Cogito, ergo sum (“I think, therefore I am”). His influence on science, philosophy, and lit- erature has been immense, for he was among the first to rely on the rule of reason, rejecting all philosophical tradition. Carte- sian also means “the explanation of philosophical problems by mathematics.” Descartes spent much of his life in Holland, dy- ing in Sweden, where he had been invited by Queen Christiana. His major work is Discours de la Méthode (1637). I remember reading somewhere that Descartes was fascinated all his life by women with a squint, which means absolutely nothing but might be of encouragement to some readers.
