Penser par soi-même, travail à partir d'un texte de Locke
Séquence proposée à une classe de terminale euro, DNL philo/anglais par Marc Kuszel, lycée Charles Péguy, Orléans.
Penser par soi-même
Objectif : comme il s'agit d'une dnl philo, essayer d'aborder avec les élèves la notion de pensée, de réflexion sans en faire un cours de terminale. On met l'accent sur le travail argumentatif.
Texte de Locke, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, London, 1689 :
Men must think and know for themselves. What censure doubting thus of innate principles may deserve from men, who will be apt to call it pulling up the old foundations of knowledge and certainty, I cannot tell;— I persuade myself at least that the way I have pursued, being conformable to truth, lays those foundations surer. This I am certain, I have not made it my business either to quit or follow any authority in the ensuing Discourse. Truth has been my only aim; and wherever that has appeared to lead, my thoughts have impartially followed, without minding whether the footsteps of any other lay that way or not. Not that I want a due respect to other men’s opinions; but, after all, the greatest reverence is due to truth: and I hope it will not be thought arrogance to say, that perhaps we should make greater progress in the discovery of rational and contemplative knowledge, if we sought it in the fountain, in the consideration of things themselves; and made use rather of our own thoughts than other men’s to find it.
