Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays and Treatises on Several Subjects, Vol. 2 of 2: Containing, an Inquiry Concerning the Human Understanding; A Dissertation on the Passions; An Inquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals; And the Natural History of Religion Moral philosophy, or' the science of human nature, may be treated after two diflhrent manners; each of which has its peculiar merit, and may contribute to the entertainment, instruction, and reformation of mankind. The one consi ders man chiefly as born for action; and as influenced in. Iis measures by taste and sentiment; pursuing one Object, and avoiding another, according to the value which these objects seem to possess, and according to the light in which they present themselves. As virtue, of all objects, is al lowed to be the most valuable, this species of philosophers paint her in the most amiable colours; borrowing all helps from poetry and eloquence, and treating their subject in an easy and obvious manner, and such as is best fitted to please the imagination, and engage the affections. They select the most striking observations and instances from common life; place opposite characters in a proper contrast; and alluring us into the paths of virtue by the views of glory and happiness, direct our steps in these paths by thesound est precepts and most illustrious examples. They make us feel the difference between vice and virtue; they excite and regulate our sentiments; and so they can but bend our hearts to the love of probity and true honour, they think that they have fully attained the end of all their labours.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays and Treatises on Moral, Political, Religious and Various Philosophical Subjects, Vol. 2 of 2 But metaphysic, hitherto, has had the hard fate, to be understood by none., One cannot, without regret, reflect on the manner in which Hume's antagonists, Reid, Oswald, Beattie, and at last even Priestly too, missed the point of his problem and, while they constantly took for granted what he doubted, but on the contrary proved with vehemence and for the most part with great rudeness and immodestv that which never onfi occurred to him to doubt, so grossly mistook what he suggested for amendment, that every thing remained in the old state, as.if nothing had happened. It was not the question, whether the conception of cause be right, 'useful and, relatively to' the whole cognition of nature.

This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treatises on Various Theological Subjects, Published at Different Times, and Now Collected Into Volumes, Vol. 2: Essays on the Most Important Subjects in Religion; An Evening Prayer for a Family Tn original design of this compendious work was, in some respects, difi'erent from the direction which it took during the course of its publication. The author intended, by a series of Essays, each comprised in a single number, to guard the minds of young people, especially, against the infidelity and scepticism of modern times, as well as to give a distinct view of the grand peculiarities and excellent ten dency of genuine christianity. He purposed, not to be strictly methodical, argumentative, or systematic: but to treat a variety of subjects in a familiar, easy, and engaging manner. The attempt, however, soon convinced him, that he had not the requisite talents for Essays of this description; and that he must leave it to persons of a more versatile and happy genius, to furnish that species of publication which seems most suited to the present circumstances and best adapted to the taste of modem readers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Vol. 2: Philosophical and Theological Morality is not a system of trains, but a system of rules. In other words, it is not a science, but an art. Every art is a method of accomplishing some end; the mechanical arts, some outward end of util ity, as the building of a house, the weaving of a dress, the guidance of a ship; the fine arts, some inward end of feeling, consisting essentially, amid all accidental varieties of material and means, in satisfaction to the sense of beauty. It is plain that the end must be given, before the means can found no method of doing can be laid down till we know what is to be done. There can be no art of tailoring for a man who never saw a coat; or of navigation for a people who never heard of the sea. To say then that the first requisite in a treatise on any art is a definition of its object is only to affirm that a prob lem must be stated in order to be solved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on History, Philosophy, and Theology, Vol. 2 In nearly all respects, the estimate of the character of Cromwell published twenty years since by Mr. Macaulay is fully as independent, honourable, and just, as. This now published by Mr. Carlyle. But in one respect we give the precedence greatly to Mr. Carlyle's portraiture. He does justice to the religion of Cromwell. His philosophy, Mr. Carlyle does not intend that his readers should think thus humbly of his labours on this point; but he must know that this is the fact of the case, inasmuch as the narrative in the above extract is given in nearly the same words, in the introduction to the Pell Papers, ' on the Times of the Protectorate, edited by the author of this article, and that work at least we must suppose Mr. Carlyle to have read, inasmuch as he quotes from it.

Download or read book Harvard Essays on Classical Subjects Classic Reprint written by Herbert Weir Smyth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvard Essays on Classical Subjects Such unity as these Essays aim to secure is of necessity the larger unity of sympathetic interpretation of certain aspects of the life and thought of classical antiquity. Nor was a closer coherence desirable if the truest independence of the contributors was to be preserved. Two of the Essays touch at a common point, though but for a moment; and this coincidence was not to be avoided, as it is not to be deprecated, since asceticism with its passion to subdue the turbulent senses, is inevitably linked with the yearning after immortality which possessed some of the most earnest minds of the ancient world. Regard for a more intimate association of parts might have made a book of essays on things Greek or on things Roman. But the less severe unity of the present volume is designed to bear witness, however inadequately, to the Harvard conviction that, for the purpose for which the ancient classics have their permanent and inalienable value, the literature and art of Greece and the literature and art of Rome are so intimately bound together that they may not suffer divorcement. We are all of us Greeks, we are all Romans. The Greeks are the creators of the one original literature of Europe.
