Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from A Pluralistic Universe Hibbert Lectures at Manchester College, on the Present Situation in Philosophy
The torch of learning passes from land to land as the spirit bloweth the flame. The deep ening of philosophic consciousness came to us english folk from Germany, as it will probably pass back ere long. Ferrier, J H. Stirling, and, most of all, T. H. Green are to be thanked. If asked to tell in broad strokes what the main doctrinal change has been, I should call it a change from the crudity of the older eng lish thinking, its ultra-simplicity of mind, both when it was religious and when it was anti religious, toward a rationalism derived in the first instance from Germany, but relieved from german technicality and shrillness, and content to suggest, and to remain vague, and to be, in the english fashion, devout.
