Thomas Reid

    A foundational figure of the Scottish Enlightenment, this philosopher posited that common sense, or 'sensus communis,' forms the bedrock of all philosophical inquiry. He diverged from contemporaries who argued our knowledge is confined to internal ideas, asserting instead that the very foundations of our shared understanding justify our belief in an external reality. His rigorous approach challenged prevailing skepticism and championed a philosophy rooted in the natural beliefs of humankind.
