Opis: Some Problems of Lotze's Theory of Knowledge (Classic Reprint) - Robins Edwin Proctor

Excerpt from Some Problems of Lotze's Theory of Knowledge

This monograph was written while the author was a graduate student at Cornell University, and was intended as a dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Although the author had intended before publishing to add to the work an historical introduction dealing with the position of philosophy in Germany at the time when Lotze's views were forming, and had collected some material for this purpose, the study of Lots which he had undertaken was in all essentials complete at the time of his death. The first chapter had been rewritten and revised, and the remaining chapters, although lacking the author's final touch, would not probably have been changed greatly either in form or substance. In preparing the manuscript for the press, I have made no changes except in occasional passages where the addition or substitution of a word or phrase seemed necessary in order to render the meaning clearer. With regard to the general method and purpose of the study a word may be necessary. The author purposely refrained from criticism of particular passages or isolated statements in the system with which he was dealing. The aim of his study was sympathetically to interpret the spirit of Lotze's system as a whole-to do justice to the philosopher by taking him at his best rather than to exhibit the literal inconsistencies of his system.

Edward Proctor Robins was born at Central Bedeque, Prince Edward Island, July 2, 1872. After passing through the primary and grammar schools of his native place, he entered Prince of Wales College, Charlottetown, at the age of sixteen. In the fall of 1891 he matriculated into Dalhousie College, Halifax, N. S. Although his preparation would have enabled him to enter the second year in any Canadian college, he characteristically preferred to take the full four years' course.
