Book Philosophy  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Philosophy Classic Reprint written by Nicholas Murray Butler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicholas Murray Butler was an American educator, a diplomat, and a philosopher. His book entitled Philosophy is the print edition of a lecture he delivered at Columbia University in a series on science, philosophy, and art. When he initially gave the lecture, Butler was the President of Columbia University and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. The original purpose of the lecture was to present a concise view of several sciences and a view of philosophy as practiced during Butler's career. Butler's long history as a philosopher easily established the credentials necessary for such a lecture. His words illuminate philosophy, outline the concepts, its method, and its true purpose in society. This lecture came at a time when new ideas of philosophy were taking main stage and Butler sincerely hoped that his words on the topic would drive people away from the "unfitting scientific garments in which some contemporary writers have sought to clothe philosophy" and instead toward a more classical understanding of this lost art. While Philosophy emphasizes just one aspect of this great man's life, it's worth considering that after completing this lecture, Butler would go on to become the president of the Carnegie Endowment for International peace, and a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize--arguably making his thoughts on any subject worthy of interest. He was a complicated man, but also a man of action. His thoughts and beliefs shaped a generation of philosophers. Butler's deep interest in philosophy flows on each page making this book an intriguing read for individuals interested in philosophy and the life of this inspiring man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Philosophy Philosophy is the search for a comprehensive view of nature, an attempt at a universal explanation of things. It is both the summary of the sciences and their completion; both general science and a specialty distinguished from science proper; and, like its elder Sisters, religion and poe try, forms a separate branch among the manifestations of the human mind.

Book Introduction to the History of Modern Philosophy  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Introduction to the History of Modern Philosophy Classic Reprint written by Arthur Stone Dewing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the History of Modern Philosophy There are at the present time accessible to the English reader many excellent and comprehensive histories of philoso phy. And the only reason for treating the subject again has arisen from the h0pe that a more simple treatment would prove useful to those readers unfamiliar with the technicalities of recent philosophical systems. For various reasons the bistori cal side serves as perhaps the only broad and permanently valuable approach to the whole field of philosophy, while it is a firm conviction with many that some slight acquaintance with the development of philosophical problems is indispensable to their appreciation. This work is intended as an introduction to the subject, and is not the expression of a critical or recon structive attitude; it makes no attempt to trace the logico genetic development of modern thought, nor does it pretend to consider every aspect of historical development.

Sev eral methods must be used to Obtain a comprehensive knowledge of an extensive and important philosophical system. Because Of the receptive character Of Scholasticism, especially in the thirteenth cen tury, and because of its high regard for tradition and authority, we shall consider the thinkers and philosophical movements to which St. Thomas was indebted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of General Philosophy Mr. Thomas Whittaker when going through the proofs. I am also indebted for kind advice and cordial help to Professor Knight. Excepting the full draft of an Introductory Lecture on the History of Philosophy, which has been collated with students' note-books to form Lectures III-VI, the-author's own materials have been wrought up almost wholly in Part II. For instance, in the concluding three lectures on Kant they practically superseded my having recourse to reports of college lectures. It so happened that, although the professor had more than once had occasion to give college lectures on this subject, only one set of notes on Kant had come into my hands.

Download or read book The Spectrum of Truth Classic Reprint written by Alfred Bowyer Sharpe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spectrum of Truth The following pages have no pretension to be a history of philosophy, or to discuss or appraise the merits of different theories. All that is aimed at is to provide a conspectus within the smallest possible compass, of the characteristic attitude of the chief philosophical systems towards the great speculative questions with which philosophy is directly concerned. Recent, and regrettable theological controversies have turned mainly upon certain great questions that fall strictly within the province of philosophy, and some simple apparatus such as is here provided is a necessary equipment for those who have made no special study of the subjects, but desire to form an Opinion of the merits of the questions at issue. And it is hoped that the condensed form of this slight sketch may be of use even to students of philosophy by bringing into prominence certain points of agreement and harmony which are for the most part overlaid and obscured by lengthy disquisitions, but which show clearly in a mere map of the country.

Book Plato

  • Publisher : Forgotten Books
  • Release : 2015-06-11
  • ISBN : 9781440069628

Download or read book Plato written by A. E. Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plato The following sketch makes no claim to be considered as a complete account of the philosophy of Plato. Many topics of importance have been omitted altogether, and others only treated with the utmost attainable brevity. I have also thought it necessary to avoid, as far as possible, all controversial discussion, and have therefore in many cases followed my own judgment on disputable points without attempting to support it by the detailed reasoning which would be indispensable in a work of larger scope. My object has been to sit as loose as possible to all the traditional expositions of Platonism, and to give in broad outline the personal impression of the philosopher's thought which I have derived from repeated study of the Platonic text. Those who are the most competent to condemn the numerous defects of my little book will, I hope, be also most indulgent in their verdict on an attempt to compress into so small a compass an account of the most original and influential of all philosophies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English and American Philosophy Since 1800: A Critical Survey I ought perhaps also to say that philosophy here, in line with the purpose I have just set forth, is taken in a some what restricted sense, to the exclusion of certain matters which a history of philosophy might be expected to cover. For the most part I propose to deal only with those central and illumi nating points Of view which constitute a man's philosophy in the distinctive sense; and the special philosophical disciplines, accordingly, receive attention only as they have some pretty direct bearing upon this. There are, for example, technical developments in the realm of logic and scientific method, that many would rate as Of large importance for the history of thought, of which no account in detail will be found in these pages. Even in the field of ethics, and of metaphysics itself, such technical problems as are separable from a comprehensive philosophic outlook are relatively neglected.

Book Philosophical Studies  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Philosophical Studies Classic Reprint written by David G. Ritchie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-10 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophical Studies As Professor Ritchie's published works are concerned mainly with ethics and politics, it seemed to me that this posthumous volume should represent, as adequately as is now possible, the philosophical position that underlies his practical doctrine. I have therefore devoted the greater part of the Memoir to a connected exposition of his views in philosophy, and my aim has been, by full quotations from the notebooks, letters and other manuscripts which Mrs. Ritchie has kindly entrusted to me, to express his ideas as far as possible in his own words. As he wrote on these high subjects in a fresh and untechnical style, I hope that many readers, who know only his political and ethical writings, may find these studies illuminating and suggestive.
