George Berkeley (Sir George Berkeley) fue un filósofo y obispo angloirlandés del siglo XVIII cuya agudeza intelectual dejó una marca profunda en la filosofía moderna. Pensador provocador y a veces jocoso en sus argumentos, es mejor conocido por su defensa del idealismo subjetivo, la tesis de que los objetos no existen independientemente de ser percibidos. Su estilo combina rigor lógico con una clara propensión a desafiar supuestos cómodos: si no puedes verlo, olerlo o medirlo, ¿cómo sabes que está ahí? Berkeley lo puso en palabras y puso a pensar a generaciones enteras.

Entre sus obras más influyentes están A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge y Three Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous, textos en los que despliega su argumento de que la existencia de las cosas es inseparable de la percepción que tenemos de ellas. Más allá de libros, su pensamiento abrió puentes entre la epistemología y la metafísica, marcando un antes y un después en la reflexión occidental sobre la realidad y la mente.
