Opis: A Reading Book in Modern Philosophy (Classic Reprint) - Partridge G. E.

Excerpt from A Reading Book in Modern Philosophy

With the exception of the passages from Hobbes and Schelling, the extract from Fichte's Vocation of Man, and Spencer's Definition of Philosophy, which were added as the manuscript was being revised for publication, this book was compiled in 1906. As originally outlined it was somewhat different in scope, and was to have been done in cooperation with President E. C. Sanford of Clark College, but owing to a change of plans on his part, I have myself compiled the book, and now publish it with the hope that it will fill a place in the philosophical student's equipment that still seems vacant.

What this place is can best be observed by noticing the classes of books which should fall within reach of the student of philosophy in his earlier years. First, there is the systematic outline of the problems of philosophy. Second, the historical account of the subject, both biographical and topical. Third, some classical writer, or treatise, such as Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, studied as a whole. Fourth, a current system, that will introduce the student to as broad as possible an area of present problems, methods, and results. Fifth, current philosophical discussion. Sixth, a wide selection of original classical texts.
