Excerpt from An Examination of Sir William Hamilton's Philosophy, and of the Principal Philosophical Questions Discussed in His Writings, Vol. 2 of 2

The laws of Obliviscence, noticed in the preceding chapter, are closely connected with a question raised by Sir W. Hamilton, and discussed at some length in his Lectures: Whether there are unconscious states of mind; or, as he expresses it in the eighteenth Lecture, "Whether the mind exerts energies, and is the subject of modifications, of neither of which it is conscious." Our author pronounces decidedly for the affirmative, in opposition to most English philosophers, by whom he says, "the supposition of an unconscious action or passion of the mind, has been treated as something either unintelligible or absurd;" and in opposition, no less, to isolated expressions of opinion by our author himself.
