Excerpt from The Anatomy of Knowledge: An Essay in Objective Logic
Yet Milton, in the Third Book of his Paradise Lost, does exactly what he smiles at the devils for doing in the Second. He enters into an elaborate argument to justify the ways of God to man, on the ground of divine foreknowledge being compatible with human free-will. Apparently he does not entertain the slightest suspicion that here, too.

Excerpt from The Anatomy of Knowledge: An Essay in Objective Logic
While the deductions of mathematics and the discoveries of physical science carry conviction to the thinking world, it would seem that the problems of philosophy are ever being propounded anew, and arc never solved except to the satisfaction of particular schools or sects.
One remembers how Milton's dialectically-dis-poscd devils
"reasoned high Of providence, foreknowledge, will, and fate.
Fixed fate, free-will, foreknowledge absolute,
And found no end, in wandering mazes lost."
And, possibly, with the less austere poet, one congratulates himself on having outgrown all such disputatious wisdom: -
"Myself when young did eagerly frequent Doctor and Saint, and heard great argument About it and about: but evermore Came out by the same door where in I went."
Yet Milton, in the Third Book of his Paradise Lost, docs exactly what he smiles at the devils for doing in the Second. He enters into an elaborate argument to justify the ways of God to man, on the ground of divine foreknowledge being compatible with human free-will.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the basic structure of knowledge and grounds on which we claim to know anything at all. The author argues that traditional philosophies have failed to establish any objective, intersubjective basis for truth claims. His theory of objective logic thus developed posits all knowledge, even scientific knowledge, as symbolic references to a postulated reality that necessarily transcends our subjective experience. This innovative theory of meaning is then applied to major debates in the philosophy of science, metaphysics, and ethics, thereby developing a comprehensive and radical philosophical system. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students in the field of epistemology as well as philosophers of mind.
