Fork of Hume
A "fork" of Hume refers to a significant modification or extension of David Hume's original philosophical ideas or theories. Think of it like a branch off a tree: a new version that maintains parts of Hume's original work but introduces fresh perspectives or adjustments. This often happens in academic discussions or intellectual projects when scholars build upon, challenge, or adapt Hume’s ideas to fit new contexts or to address limitations in the original work, resulting in a distinct but related philosophical position called a “fork.”
