Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Future This book has cost me more than half a century of toil and the loss of most things that men chiefly desire. And still it is very imperfect. How, indeed, could it be otherwise, since I have had to cut my way through a wilderness, aided only by the errors of those who have preceded me? But, as I have shown in my Philosophy of History, we are on the verge Of a great transition. The Protestant age of dissent and division has exhausted itself, and has now little of value to offer us. And so I send forth my book, hoping that despite its imperfections, it may serve to foreshadow the better time that is com ing.

Book A Philosophy of the Future  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Philosophy of the Future Classic Reprint written by Ernst Bloch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Philosophy of the Future It is always better to take your reader straight to the point and spare him a long preamble. This is particularly advisable when the book itself is offered as an introduction. If it takes a long time to get to the matter, the mind tends to refuse what is really needful. This work consists largely of material first delivered as lec tures. If the spoken word can still be heard (where it should be heard), well and good. It helps if you tell someone the way as well as point it out; yet what the voice spends only the letter preserves: vita brevis, ars longa. There are many schools of thought and primers for the ascent to the heights. The steps are as old as (if not older than) Parnassus. And there are many Introductions to Philosophy that advertise themselves as such. This one is different: its' prole gomena are more direct than indirect; it doesn't represent all the branches, or accord space to all the topics. Still, -there's compensation, even if the approach seems rather precipitate for the first affair with wisdom. Too many guides offer roads that end up nowhere in particular; and too often the lack of any philosophy to introduce is the reason for writing an introduction to it. The kind of neutral commentary produced for the un Sophisticated tends also to intimidate the reader, and the dis interested report of an impersonal and ideologically reticent narrator can obscure the matter itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of a Future State Sir, In dedicating to you this Volume, which has for its object to exhibit a popular view of the Philosophy of a Future State, as deduced from the light of science and revelation, - a consideration of a far higher nature than the formal and customary honour of addressing a mail of literary and scientific attainments induced me to shelter it under your patronage. In the several vocations in which Providence has called you to officiate, you have proved yourself the warm and disinterested patron of all that is benevolent and good of every thing that concerns the present and eternal welfare of mankind: and your praises have been re-echoed from one corner of the land to another, as the champion of the Christian religion, the doctrines of which, your voice and your pen have done so much to illustrate. Your writings furnish ample testimony to the world of your earnest, active, and unwearied solicitude for the moral and religious improvement of mankind; a solicitude which is not abated by any minor differences of opinion in those with whom you co-operate, where the great object is, to diffuse knowledge and happiness over the face of the earth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future in America: A Search After Realities The question "Are you a Polygamist?" "Are you an Anarchist?" The questions seem impertinent. They are part of a long paper of interrogations I must answer satisfactorily if I am to be regarded as a desirable alien to enter the United States of America. I want very much to pass that great statue of Liberty illuminating the World (from a central position in New York Harbor), in order to see things in its light, to talk to certain people, to appreciate certain atmospheres, and so I resist the provocation to answer impertinently. I do not even volunteer that I do not smoke and am a total abstainer; on which points it would seem the States as a whole still keep an open mind.

This book was released on 2018-04-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future We [englishmen] know that we have made no discoveries, and we think that no discoveries are to be made in morality. The latter statement, which still represents the general views of Englishmen, is now proved to be entirely mistaken. Discoveries have now been made in the realm of morals, which are perhaps even more practical/y important than all the discoveries in physical science and it is to Nietzsche especially that we are indebted for those discoveries, which are set forth, in part at least, in this volume - the very discoveries, in fact, which Burke himself required, in order to give a satis factory answer to the French Revolutionists.

Book The Religion of the Future  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Religion of the Future Classic Reprint written by Eduard Von Hartmann and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of the Future The following pages are reprinted here without material altera tions from the First Edition. The time which has elapsed since their composition was too short for getting any fresh views about the questions considered in them. They evoked no criticisms worthy of notice, when first published singly in the Leipsic weekly Journal, Literature, edited by Paul Wislicenus; and the first collected publication of them, con sisting of two thousand copies, was bought up within eight weeks. Accordingly, there has not been any interval long enough to enable me to give an answer to some of the more important rejoinders, by issuing a fresh Edition with elucida tions and additions. Some political and ecclesiastical Journals hastened to criticise the First Edition, but failed to bring any weightier arguments forward. Most of my critics drew a close parallel between my little book and Strauss's The Old Faith and the New. I, for my part, cannot complain of this parallel which writers of the most various standpoints put into prominence, nor of the censure accruing to me from the comparison with Strauss.

Book The Progress of Philosophy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Progress of Philosophy: In the Past and in the Future This tract has been composed from two articles contributed by me to Reviews. The one, constituting the first part, was published in the Southern Quarterly Review for November, 1856. The other, constituting the second part, was pub lished in the Princeton Review for October, 1855. The arti cles met with so much favour in Europe and America, that I am induced to publish them in this form. The article in the Princeton Review was read by Sir William Hamilton before his death, and he intended* to honour me with an answer to my dissenting criticisms, but death deprived us of the light which he doubtless would have shed upon the points in dispute. His forthcoming lectures will, perhaps, give us more light. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Religion of the Future  Or Outlines of Spiritual Philosophy  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Religion of the Future Or Outlines of Spiritual Philosophy Classic Reprint written by Samuel Weil and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of the Future, or Outlines of Spiritual Philosophy 1. A new and glorious science of man, of his origin and destiny, has been developed within the last few decades. A new philosophy has been evolved of human life here and hereafter, based upon demonstrated facts and data accessible to all. Stupendous as the science of objective nature has become, it is as the mere shadow thrown upon the canvas of time and matter by the radiant light of immortal spirit. Modern agnosticism had set up a way-mark on the road of human progression, inscribed: "No thoroughfare!" "Unknowable!" The truths most indispensable for man to know, the destiny of man and the immortality of the soul, were declared absolute mysteries. What ought to have merely been designated as unknown was declared to be unknowable. This way-mark has to be removed. It is now seen that the doctrine of the Relativity of Knowledge, as formulated by the Kantian school of modem philosophical thought, misled men into too hasty generalizations and unwarrantable conclusions. It needed only the right method to find the way out; it required only the right key to open wondrous realms to the astonished gaze. Again the supremacy of mind is restored; the saying is verified that "there is nothing on earth great but man, and in man there is nothing great but mind."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future of Science A sort of soothing breeze made me unbend, nearly all my illusions of 1848 vanished as utterly impossible of realization. I became aware of the fatal necessities of human society, resigned to a state of things in which a great deal of evil is the necessary condition of a small amount of good, in which an imperceptible quantity of aroma is extracted from an enormous caput mortuum of spoiled matter. I became reconciled in certain respects to the reality, and when on my return I took up the book written a twelvemonth before I found it to be harsh, dogmatic, sectarian and hard.

Book Primal Roots of American Philosophy

Download or read book Primal Roots of American Philosophy written by Bruce Wilshire and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuing his quest to bring American philosophy back to its roots, Bruce Wilshire connects the work of such thinkers as Thoreau, Emerson, Dewey, and James with Native American beliefs and practices. His search is not for exact parallels, but rather for fundamental affinities between the equally &"organismic&" thought systems of indigenous peoples and classic American philosophers. Wilshire gives particular emphasis to the affinities between Black Elk&’s view of the hoop of the world and Emerson&’s notion of horizon, and also between a shaman&’s healing practices and James&’s ideas of pure experience, willingness to believe, and a pluralistic universe. As these connections come into focus, the book shows how European phenomenology was inspired and influenced by the classic American philosophers, whose own work reveals the inspiration and influence of indigenous thought. Wilshire&’s book also reveals how artificial are the walls that separate the sciences and the humanities in academia, and that separate Continental from Anglo-American thought within the single discipline of philosophy.

But one thing at least is clear. Intuition, whether regarded as faculty or function, has reference always to know ledge hy sympathy, knowledge from within the ohject known.
