Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Comte, Mill, and Spencer: An Outline of Philosophy By the use of a double title I have tried to indicate that my aim in this little work has been at once critical and constructive. The philosophical creed which commends itself to my mind is what in the text I have called Intellectual Idealism, by which I mean the doctrine that we are capable of knowing Reality as it actually is, and that Reality when so known is absolutely rational. Such a doctrine seems to many to be presumptuous, contrary to the sober spirit of inductive inquiry, and based on an untenable theory of knowledge and conduct My aim has been to show that these objections rest upon a misunderstanding of the idealistic position, at least as held by such writers as the late Professor T. H. Green and the present Master of Balliol. The general proof of Idealism must consist in showing that, while the determination of Reality by such categories as coexistence, succession, and causality, is capable of vindication so long as it is not regarded as ultimate, it becomes false when affirmed to be final, and that we arc compelled at last to characterize existence as purposive and rational. There are various ways of enforcing this view. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
