'''George Berkeley''' (March 12, 1685 – January 14, 1753) was an Anglo-Irish, Christian, Empiricist philosopher who made insightful advances in metaphysics that influenced both Hume and Kant. His greatest achievement was his theory of idealism which argued the non-existence of matter through a syllogism, making him an immaterialist.
