Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primer of Philosophy The point of view adopted in this, as in other publications of the author, is new to the extent that it cannot be classified among any of the various schools of recent thought. It represents, rather, a critical reconciliation of rival philosophies of the type of Kantian apriorism and John Stuart Mill's empiricism. The reconciliation reached disposes for good of a number of fundamental problems, and, particularly, of that old crux the question of the nature of reason, and will, thus, after a long unsettled period of embarrassments in which all progress has ceased, set the ship of philosophy a oat again.

Book The Philosophy  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Philosophy Classic Reprint written by George Stuart Fullerton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy This second edition is so different from the first that it may almost be regarded as a new book. The general plan is retained, but the translation has been freely altered throughout, and in Part III. Proposi tions 1 to 11 have been added. Some of the intro ductory matter is new, and the critical and explana tory notes have been greatly multiplied. I have discussed at length in a prefatory note the nature of Spinoza's reasoning and the foundations upon which it rests; and I beg the reader to examine this care fully before proceeding to a study Of the text. It has been my experience that, even to intelligent students, the argument of the Ethics presents serious diffi culties. In my notes I have taken great pains to make the author's meaning plain, and have not hesitated, with this end in view, to repeat the same thought in different places, when, in the interests of clearness, it has seemed Wise to do so. I have, Of course, been somewhat hampered by the necessity Of keeping the size Of the volume within reasonable limits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Philosophy The translator desires me to write a brief preface for the English edition of my Introduction. First of all, I wish to express my gratitude that the little book has been considered worthy of being presented to the English speaking world in their own tongue. I should like to add, furthermore, that I am greatly indebted to English and American thinkers for inspiration and suggestion which I regard of the highest value. Herbert Spencer taught me to think genetically and from William James, whose recent untimely death fills us all with profound sorrow, I got the idea of making psychological analysis the basis of my philosophical investigations. And in the new pragmatic method, which likewise originated in America, I have found a theory to which I had been led independently by my own investigations even before hearing of its American exponents.

Book The Making of a Confederate

  • ISBN : 0198042892
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book The Making of a Confederate written by William L. Barney and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-11-14 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the advances of the civil rights movement, many white southerners cling to the faded glory of a romanticized Confederate past. In The Making of a Confederate, William L. Barney focuses on the life of one man, Walter Lenoir of North Carolina, to examine the origins of southern white identity alongside its myriad ambiguities and complexities. Born into a wealthy slaveholding family, Lenoir abhorred the institution, opposed secession, and planned to leave his family to move to Minnesota, in the free North. But when the war erupted in 1860, Lenoir found another escape route--he joined the Confederate army, an experience that would radically transform his ideals. After the war, Lenoir, like many others, embraced the cult of the Lost Cause, refashioning his memory and beliefs in an attempt to make sense of the war, its causes, and its consequences. While some Southerners sank into depression, aligned with the victors, or fiercely opposed the new order, Lenoir withdrew to his acreage in the North Carolina mountains. There, he pursued his own vision of the South's future, one that called for greater self-sufficiency and a more efficient use of the land. For Lenoir and many fellow Confederates, the war never really ended. As he tells this compelling story, Barney offers new insights into the ways that (selective) memory informs history; through Lenoir's life, readers learn how individual choices can transform abstract historical processes into concrete actions.

Download or read book An Introduction to Philosophy Classic Reprint written by W. Windelband and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Philosophy The Introduction to Philosophy which I here offer to the public gives a general view of philosophical problems and explains the tendencies of the various attempts to solve them. It seeks to provoke the reader to think over the great problems of life. It is in no sense an introduction to a special philosophical system, but it makes a very Wide survey of all the possibilities in the way of solutions. Naturally, it is based upon the author's personal view, as the student of philosophy will easily perceive; but this will not be pressed, or suffered to influence the author's judgment in appraising other systems of thought. In View of the aim of the work I have not found it necessary to burden it with literary references to the historic systems to which reference is made in its pages.
