Arnold Geulincx
Arnold Geulincx, 31 January 1624 – November 1669, was a Flemish philosopher.
He was one of the followers of René Descartes who tried to work out more detailed versions of a generally Cartesian philosophy. Samuel Beckett cited Geulincx as a key influence and interlocutor because of Geulincx's emphasis on the powerlessness and ignorance of the human condition.
