Excerpt from Historical Studies in Philosophy This book, which a careful and exact translation now introduces to English readers, is a collection of studies, independent of one another, and written mostly at the express invitation of my pupils or colleagues. As I had devoted numerous lectures at the École Normale Supérieure and the Sorbonne to a minute analysis of various philosophical systems, and as I was unable to find time to set them for...

Excerpt from Philosophy War Is the rapprochement of these two words, philosophy and war, a legitimate one? Do not war and philosophy belong to two entirely different worlds? Should we not regard as artificial and incongruous all attempts to find any relation between the manifestations of force and the serene untrammelled speculations of the spirit? Assuredly, this is not the point of view of the Germans. The official representatives of Germa...

Excerpt from Louis Clark Vanuxem Foundation: Lectures Delivered in Connection With the Dedication of the Graduate College of Princeton University in October, 1913 Science and Culture - few words are heard more often in our day and few words cause so many controversies and discussions on all sides. Does culture - to use the word in its exact sense - arise naturally from the progress of science or has culture her own conditions, her own laws, ...

Excerpt from The Beyond That Is Within: And Other Addresses The three addresses here presented treat of subjects which I myself did not choose, but which were suggested to me as likely to interest the persons before whom I was invited to speak. I have discussed these subjects from my own point of view, I have endeavoured - as indeed was demanded of me - to indicate tendencies, rather than to furnish detailed theories hence, in these three stu...

Excerpt from William James If, for our part, we can make no pre tensions to give new life to the fine image of William James, let us at least try to observe some features of his physiognomy, above all, let us yield ourselves gladly to the vivid impression which his personality of itself produced upon everyone who came in contact with it, so that we may communi cate with him sympathetically and by that means in some measure read his inward sou...

Excerpt from The Contingency of the Laws of Nature, Vol. 5 For a certain period of time, man is content with this conception. And, indeed, is it not even at so early a stage a very fertile one? All the same, whilst observing facts, the mind notes that there is a con stant relation between them. It sees that nature consists not of isolated objects but rather of inter related phenomena. It notes that the contiguity of the phenomena, from the po...

Excerpt from William JamesSi nous ne pouvons, nous, prétendre à faire revire la belle figure de William James, essayons, du moins, de noter quelques traits de sa physionomie, surtout abandonnons nous de bonne grâce à l'impression si vive que sa personnalité produit d'elle-même sur qui l'approche, de manière à communier avec lui par la sympathie, et, par là même, à lire, en quelque mesure, dans l'intérieur.About the PublisherForgotten Books pub...

Excerpt from Pascal This translation of the most recent study of Pascal by one of his own countrymen is offered in the hope of making him more widely known among English readers. For Pascal belongs to mankind, by virtue of that common human nature which was to him so profoundly interesting. A lover of perfection and a lover of humanity, ho spent himself in the passionate effort to attain the one and to point out the way of it to the other. B...

Excerpt from The Relation Between Thought and Action: From the German and From the Classical Point of View, The Herbert Spencer Lecture Delivered at Oxford, October 20, 1917 Then, instead of exploiting the authority of the great man for your own benefit, you modestly take him as your master, and strive to develop and progress by following his teaching. You earnestly endeavour to become inspired with his spirit, and to perpetuate, not his memo...

Excerpt from Pascal Cependant, ses calculs d educateur se trouvèrent soudainement déjoués. Un des points de son pro gramme auquel il tenait particulièrement était de ne point parler à l'enfant de mathématiques avant que celui - ci fût âgé de quinze ou seize ans. Or le jeune Blaise, précisément, était curieux d'explications sur les sujets mathématiques, et posait des questions à son père. Celui - ci refusait de répondre, promettant à l'enfant ...
