Stout and Mr A. N. Whitehead for kindly reading my proofs, and helping me by many useful criticisms. To Mr Whitehead I owe, also, the inestimable assistance of constant criticism and suggestion throughout the course of construction, especially as regards the philosophical importance of projective Geometry.

Excerpt: ... particular absolute content, in relation to which the order takes place. And so space, too, is not a mere order, but just that by which the spatial order, side-by-sideness (Nebeneinander) distinguishes itself from the rest." May we not, then, resolve the antinomy very simply, by a reference to this ambiguity of space? Bradley contends (Appearance and Reality, pp. 36-7) that, on the one hand, space has parts, and is therefore not mere relations, while on the other hand, when we try to say what these parts are, we find them after all to be mere relations. But cannot the space which has parts be regarded as empty space, Stumpf's absolute underlying content, which is not mere relations, while the parts, in so far as they turn out to be mere relations, are those relations which constitute spatial order, not empty space? If this can be maintained, the antinomy no longer exists. But such an explanation, though I believe it to be a first step towards a solution, will, I fear, itself demand almost as much explanation as the original difficulty. For the connection of empty space with spatial order is itself a question full of difficulty, to be answered only after much labour. 203. Let us consider what this empty space is. (I speak of "empty" space without necessarily implying the absence of matter, but only to denote a space which is not a mere order of material things.) Stumpf regards it as given in sense; Kant, in the last two arguments of his metaphysical deduction, argues that it is an intuition, not a concept, and must be known before spatial order becomes possible. I wish to maintain, on the contrary, that it is wholly conceptual; that space is given only as spatial order; that spatial relations, being given, appear as more than mere...

This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Foundations of Geometry David Hilbert Along with the writings of Hilbert's friend and correspondent Frege, Hilbert's Foundations of Geometry set the stage for Russell and Whitehead's Principia Mathematica. Hilbert presents a new axiomatization of geometry to algebra, and introduces the distinction between mathematics and metamathematics, with a new theory of proof. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Geometry This book is logically sound, and that consequently the more it is discussed and criticised, the more firmly will it become established. I shall therefore be very glad to see any criticisms of my views, whether friendly or hostile, either in the public press, or addressed to me privately, at the address given below. But I have already found that, the subject being such a wide one, criticism is apt to become discursive; and with a view to keeping it to the point I would suggest to my critics and opponents in argument that they should consider categorically the following questions.

Download or read book An Essay on the Foundations of Geometry written by Bertrand Russell and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Essay on the Foundations of Geometry was first published in 1897 when Bertrand Russell was 25 years old. It marks his first major foray into analytic philosophy, a movement in which Russell is one of the founding members and figurehead. It provides a brilliant insight into Russell's early philosophical thought and an engaging and authoritative introduction to the philosophical and logical foundations of geometry - a version of which was fundamental to Einstein's theory of relativity. Russell explores and introduces the concepts of geometry and their philosophical implications, including a historical overview of geometrical theory, making it an invaluable resource not only for students of philosophy but anyone interested in the origins of the thought of one of the twentieth century's most important and widely-read philosophers. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Foreword by Michael Potter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of the Principles of Logic to the Foundations of Geometry The fundamental ordinal relation of geometry is the relation which can be, at pleasure, described as the triadic relation between, or as an asymmetrical, transitive dyadic relation, such as before, or antecedent to, or sequent to. Essentially the same relation is at the root of all serial order, and on this basis the logic of such order has lately been elaborately discussed by Mr. Bertrand russell, in his Principles of Mathematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Paper on the Foundations of Projective Geometry: Read Before the Aristotelian Society, Dec, 13, 1897 This paper was nominally "read" at a meeting of the Aristotelian Society on December 13th, 1897. It is the excellent custom of that Society to circulate proofs of papers among the members before the meetings, and I was thus able to make the paper longer and more technical than would otherwise have been possible; but even so the mathematical portion is compressed to the utmost, and a great deal is necessarily left to the good will and intelligence of the reader. Since writing the paper I have read up the modem literature of the subject, and I am confirmed in the impression, which I got from Mr. Russell's book, that the conception of "order" as the basis of so-called "Projective Geometry" is essentially new. The only suggestion of this way of looking at the question which I have found is in Pasch's Vorlesungen uher neuere Geometrie. But though he sees that less than four points have no determinate "order," he never extends the conception of order to continuous quantities, nor does he grasp the connection between it and "anharmonic ratio." It seems, therefore, worth while to bring my views before a wider public, for, interesting as the discussion before the Aristotelian Society was, it was chiefly my epistemological views which came in for criticism; the geometrical points were hardly discussed at all.
