The Platonic Tradition - Taschenbuch

library of EDITED BY J. H. MUIRHEAD, LLD. THE PLATONIC TRADITION IN ANGLO-SAXON PHILOSOPHY THE LIBRARY OF PHILOSOPHY As may be seen from the original programme printed in Erdmanns History of Philosophy under the date 1890, the Library of Philosophy was designed as a contribution to the History of Modern Philosophy under the heads first of different Schools of Thought Sensationalist, Realist, Idealist, Intuitivist secondly of different Subjects Psychology, Ethics, Esthetics, Political Philosophy, Theology. While much had been done in England in tracing the course of evolution in nature, history, economics, morals, and religion, little had been done in tracing the development of thought on these subjects. Yet the evolution of opinion is part of the whole evolution. By the co-operation of different writers in carrying out this plan it was hoped that a thoroughness and completeness of treatment, otherwise unattainable, might be secured. It was believed also that from writers mainly British and American fuller considera tion of English Philosophy than it had hitherto received might be looked for. In the earlier series of books containing, among others, Bosanquets History of Esthetics, Pfleiderers Rational Theology since Kant, Albees History of English Utilitarianism, Bonars Philosophy and Political Economy, Bretts History of Psychology, Ritchies Natural Rights, these objects were to a large extent effected. In the meantime original work of a high order was being produced both in England and America by such writers as Bradley, Stout, Bertrand Russell, Baldwin, Urban, Montague, and others, and a new interest in foreign works, German, French, and Italian, which had either become classical orwere attracting public attention, had developed. The scope of the Library thus became extended into something more inter national, and it is entering on the fifth decade of its existence in the hope that it may contribute in this highest field of thought to that Intellectual Co-operation which is one of the most significant objects of the League of Nations and kindred organizations.
