The Intuitive Basis of Knowledge: An Epistemological Inquiry, written by N. O. Lossky and originally published in 1919, is a philosophical exploration of the nature of knowledge and how it is acquired. The book delves into the concept of intuition, which is defined as a direct and immediate apprehension of reality that is not based on reasoning or empirical observation. Lossky argues that intuition is the foundation of all knowledge, and that it is through intuition that we are able to grasp the essence of things and gain true understanding.The book is divided into three parts. The first part lays out the basic concepts of intuition and knowledge, and explores the relationship between the two. The second part examines the role of intuition in various fields of knowledge, including mathematics, science, and art. The third part considers the implications of Lossky's theory for philosophy as a whole, and discusses the relationship between intuition and other philosophical concepts such as truth, reality, and consciousness.Overall, The Intuitive Basis of Knowledge is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of knowledge and the role of intuition in our understanding of the world. It is a classic work of philosophy that continues to be relevant and influential today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
