Idealism And The Modern Age Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The New Idealism What is the exact position of Idealism at the present day? What is likely to be its position in the future? How is it going to emerge, if it emerges at all, from its encounter with the New Realism? There is no denying that the New Realism has made a prodigious disturb ance in philosophic thought, a disturbance so vital and far-reaching that philosophic thought will never look the same again. The idealist is fatuously sanguine if he expects his own pet system to come up out of the turmoil looking just the same. Never before has there been such a ruthless exposure of the weak points in his position. At the present moment it seems fairly Safe to say that the Old Idealism, I mean the Idealism of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, of Berkeley, of Kant and Hegel, of the new-kantians and new-hegelians, all the old logic and epistemology (horrible word) will have to go and give place to an idealism which will take serious account of the world of space and time.

Excerpt from Lectures on Modern Idealism To literary distinction such as the Spirit of Modern Philosophy possesses the present lectures can evidently lay no claim. In range and depth, however, they surpass the chronicle of the same period in the earlier volume. There we have but a brief recital of the mam phases of post-kantian doctrine, here an examination of its his torical foundation, its logical roots, its human as well as its technical motives. The selection of topics is here more rigorous and the interest more prevailingly theo retical. Moreover, what is here deliberately avoided is the familiar and conventional' reproduction of post-kant ian thought. The usual method of the usual textbooks is here not repeated. In vain do we here look for the hackneyed themes of a hundred histories of philosophy. Royce does not seek the successors of Kant in the obvious tracts of ideas. He searches for them in the neglected aspects, the buried documents, the forgotten theses. These reveal to him the true meaning of their teachings; these disclose to him the spirit of the post-kantian move ment. In the' early works of Schelling, for instance, Royce finds the pulse Of the dialectical method, and in the Phenomenology rather than In the Logic he discovers the soul of Hegel. And, though the present study is wanting in completeness, there is no shirking of the most difficult problems but rather a choosing of them and a discussion of them' with a power, adequacy and clear ness which, as we look about, Royce alone seemed able to summon to such a task.
