Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive outlook of the conceptions  of history of mind proposed by the british philosophers from Locke to the end of the XVIII century. It aims to show that, despite the seeming resemblances, the differences among those conceptions are sufficient to enable us to identify different philosophical projects.
