Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collected Essays of Rudolf Eucken: Professor of Philosphy in the University of Jena: Nobel Prizeman 1908 All our human faculties - intellectual, aesthetic, practical, ethical and religious - find their only true function in promoting this ascent in the scale of being. Viewed from the standpoint of Eueken's philosophy, human existence is one vast process of the realisation and appropriation of spiritual reality. A unity and a meaning is thus imparted to the whole. All the difficulties and antitheses of our life ultimately subserve this great purpose. It is of the utmost importance, however, to bear in mind that this process is not automatic. Man's active participation is essential to the movement of elevation. Human evolution is no mere "unwinding of thread from a reel" it is a creative work in which man is a co-worker. Eucken seeks to bring into the apparently almost hopeless chaos of modern life and thought a positive, unifying metaphysical principle - a principle that embraces all the different departments of human life and interest, scientific and religious, practical and theoretical, artistic and moral, and endeavours to assign to each its function in the task of the whole. It will be found that all the following essays are inspired and connected by the central convictions thus imperfectly sketched. The historical contributions are not mere records of past opinions. They are animated by a deep conviction that man's intellectual, moral and religious life is an ever-growing and ever-deepening possession, and that every great and sincere thinker contributes something to the advancement of the whole - notwithstanding the popular belief that the history of philosophy is a mere record of transitory opinions. The serious student of Eucken will do well, I think, to read with especial care the two essays dealing with Goethe and with Concepts (Nos. XV and XIX). The relationship between the great poet's ideas and the philosophy of Activism is very intimate, despite important differences; and the treatment of Goethe's thought in this essay throws a very valuable light on Eucken's position.
