Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature and Human Nature Thinks I to myself, as I overheard a person inquire of the servant at the door, in an unmistakeable voice and tone, "Is the Squire to hum?" that can be no one else than my old friend Sam Slick the Clockmaker. But it could admit of no doubt when he proceeded, "If he is, tell him I am here." "Who shall I say, Sir?" The stranger paused a moment, and then said, "It's such an everlastin' long name, I don't think you can carry it all to wunst, and I don't want it broke in two. Tell him it's a gentleman that calculates to hold a protracted meeten here to-night. Come, don't stand starin' there on the track, you might get run over. Don't you hear the engine coming? Shunt off now." Ah, my old friend," said I, advancing, and shaking him by the hand, "how are you?" "As hearty as a buck," he replied, "though I can't jist jump quite so high now." "I knew you," I said, "the moment I heard your voice, and if I had not recognised that, I should have known your talk." "That's because I am a Yankee, sir," he said, "no two of us look alike, or talk alike; but being free and enlightened citizens, we jist talk as we please." "Ah, my good friend, you always please when you talk, and that is more than can be said of most men." "And so will you," he replied, "if you use soft sawder that way. Oh, dear me! it seems but the other day that you laughed so at my theory of soft sawder and human natur', don't it? They were pleasant days, warn't they? I often think of them, and think of them with pleasure too. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Human Nature and the Social Order

Download or read book Human Nature and the Social Order written by Charles Horton Cooley and published by . This book was released on 2018-07-25 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Horton Cooley's account of human beings, their behavior, and how they organize themselves has been praised for its originality, and remains an underappreciated and much-cited classic of sociology. Human Nature and the Social Order is a logically composed book which straddles and to a degree transcends the boundaries between philosophy, psychology and sociology. Cooley wished to clarify the behavior of human beings, how they come to interact and socialize with one another, and how they arrive at a definition of themselves that is in harmony with their own well-being and that of others. Later in the book, Cooley discusses qualities which have been promoted or felt as necessary for humans in civilized society. Good, conscientious and beneficent leadership, the possession of a moral compass and conscience, and the excellent values of freedom receive their own discussions with positive and negative elements comprising the well-rounded analyses.

Book Human Nature and Its Remaking

Download or read book Human Nature and Its Remaking written by Ernest Hocking William and published by Watson Press. This book was released on 2007-03 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACE. THE Author of this very practical treatise on Scotch Loch - Fishing desires clearly that it may be of use to all who had it. He does not pretend to have written anything new, but to have attempted to put what he has to say in as readable a form as possible. Everything in the way of the history and habits of fish has been studiously avoided, and technicalities have been used as sparingly as possible. The writing of this book has afforded him pleasure in his leisure moments, and that pleasure would be much increased if he knew that the perusal of it would create any bond of sympathy between himself and the angling community in general. This section is interleaved with blank shects for the readers notes. The Author need hardly say that any suggestions addressed to the case of the publishers, will meet with consideration in a future edition. We do not pretend to write or enlarge upon a new subject. Much has been said and written-and well said and written too on the art of fishing but loch-fishing has been rather looked upon as a second-rate performance, and to dispel this idea is one of the objects for which this present treatise has been written. Far be it from us to say anything against fishing, lawfully practised in any form but many pent up in our large towns will bear us out when me say that, on the whole, a days loch-fishing is the most convenient. One great matter is, that the loch-fisher is depend- ent on nothing but enough wind to curl the water, -and on a large loch it is very seldom that a dead calm prevails all day, -and can make his arrangements for a day, weeks beforehand whereas the stream- fisher is dependent for a good take on the state of the water and however pleasant and easy it may be for one living near the banks of a good trout stream or river, it is quite another matter to arrange for a days river-fishing, if one is looking forward to a holiday at a date some weeks ahead. Providence may favour the expectant angler with a good day, and the water in order but experience has taught most of us that the good days are in the minority, and that, as is the case with our rapid running streams, -such as many of our northern streams are, -the water is either too large or too small, unless, as previously remarked, you live near at hand, and can catch it at its best. A common belief in regard to loch-fishing is, that the tyro and the experienced angler have nearly the same chance in fishing, -the one from the stern and the other from the bow of the same boat. Of all the absurd beliefs as to loch-fishing, this is one of the most absurd. Try it. Give the tyro either end of the boat he likes give him a cast of ally flies he may fancy, or even a cast similar to those which a crack may be using and if he catches one for every three the other has, he may consider himself very lucky. Of course there are lochs where the fish are not abundant, and a beginner may come across as many as an older fisher but we speak of lochs where there are fish to be caught, and where each has a fair chance. Again, it is said that the boatman has as much to do with catching trout in a loch as the angler. Well, we dont deny that. In an untried loch it is necessary to have the guidance of a good boatman but the same argument holds good as to stream-fishing...

Think, then, that the antithesis, society versus the individual, is false and hollow whenever used as a general or philosophical statement of human rela; tions, Whatever idea may be in the minds of those who set these words and their derivatives over against each other, the notion conveyed is that of two sepa rable entities or forces; and certainly such a notion is untrue to fact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise of Human Nature, Vol. 1 of 3 My design in the present work is sufficiently explain'd in the introduction.The reader must only observe, that all the subjects I have there plann'd out to my self, are not treated of in these two volumes. The subjects of the understanding and passions make a compleat chain of reasoning by themselves; and I was willing to take advantage of this natural division, in order to try the taste of the public. If I hare the good fortune to meet with success, I shall proceed to the examination of morals, politics, and criticism; which will compleat this Treatise of human nature. The approbation of the public I consider as the greatest reward of my labours; but am determin'd to regard its judgment, whatever it be, as my best instruction.

Book A Study in Human Nature  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Study in Human Nature Classic Reprint written by Lyman Abbott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study in Human Nature The object of this little book is purely practical. It is written to aid parents, teachers, and pastors, in their work of character-building; incidentally, too, to aid each indi vidual to build himself. It grew out of a practical need, and was written wholly with a practical end in view. Some years ago Dr. J. H. Vincent designed, as a part of his Chautauqua University, a Chautauqua School of The ology. Its object was not to supersede the thorough courses of biblical and theological study pursued in the seminaries, but to supplement them; to aid pastors in pursuing their studies after they had already entered on their parish work, and to enable laymen and others, Who were engaged in ministerial or quasi ministerial labor, to equip themselves more thoroughly for their work. He proposed to incorporate in the curriculum of this Chau tanqua School of Theology 3. Department'of Human Nature, the object of which should be to aid the stu dent in studying man, individually and socially; human nature in history, in fiction, in the parish, and in society, thus enabling him to deal more wisely, because more truly scientifically, with the problems of individual and social life. Dr. Vincent asked me to take charge of this department, to create and to cultivate it. With much misgiving, I undertook the task; moved thereto partly by a warm personal affection and esteem for Dr. Vincent, partly by a great respect for the work which he is doing, and partly by a special interest in this particular department.

The debt to Professor james is so evident that it seems unnecessary to point out the many places Where his formulae have been made to do service.

Book Human Nature a Psychological Study  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Human Nature a Psychological Study Classic Reprint written by David Jordan Higgins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Human Nature a Psychological Study This book is an interpretation of human nature under the guide of such thinkers as Kant, Hegel, Lotze, and Bowne. Their definition that being is action takes the place of the old Greek conception that be ing is substance. The ground of all being is life-energy. Human nature is human being; the dynamic of human nature is life energy; and, therefore, our study of human nature is a study of human activities under the guidance of experience rather than of history or theology. The life of an individual cannot, of course, exhibit all the activities of human nature, but there are so many activities common to all individuals that a unity of human nature may be inferred, so that our study is of the dynamics of human nature, and considers that nature as a unit.
