Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Remarks on the Classification of the Different Branches of Human Knowledge It is, I believe, universally acknowledged, that in consequence of the progress of science, the divisions which were formerly proposed by Bacon and D´Alembert are not suited to its present condition. Dugald Stewart intended, in the Preliminary Dissertation to the Encyclopædia Britannica, to have begun with a general survey of the various departments of human knowledge. He thought that it would be easy to adapt the intellectual map of Bacon and D´Alembert to the present advanced state of the sciences; but upon a closer examination of their labours, this illustrious philosopher found himself under the necessity of abandoning the design from doubts with respect to the justness of their logical views, which terminated, unfortunately, according to my humble sentiments, only in a conviction that these views are radically and essentially erroneous. "Instead, therefore, of endeavouring to give additional currency to speculations which I conceived to be fundamentally unsound, I resolved to avail myself of the present opportunity to point out their most important defects, - defects which I am nevertheless very ready to acknowledge, it is much more easy to remark than to supply.
