Enthralled Empiricism

The Terms Enthralled & Empiricism

The term "empiricism" has a dual etymology. It comes from the Greek word εμπειρισμός, the Latin translation of which is experientia, from which we derive the word experience. It also derives from a more specific classical Greek and Roman usage of empiric, referring to a physician whose skill derives from practical experience as opposed to instruction in theory.[1]

Now we have brought up Rationalism, so before I can even finish the "whats it all about" for this post, I gotta move on to the days' "real" & "reality"
