Excerpt from Borderland of Psychical ResearchThe reason for this is very simple. The views which had separated them from ordinary interest were due to a reaction against the more ancient con ception of dreams. We are wont to suppose that men naturally distinguish between their dreams and normal experiences. This, however, is not altogether true. The ancients gave an external or objective meaning to dreams, and savages still do so, -a meaning t...

Mr. Venn's recent volume on Empirical Logic is unusually sagacious and suggestive in all the most fundamental matters.

Excerpt from Elements of PsychologyII. Method Of Psychology. Dispute in regard to psy chological method, partly from the reaction against mediaeval thought and partly from the tendency to make psychology a physical, or at least an exact science. Hence there are two methods defended, which may be combined in the correct View Of the subject.I) introspection, OR the subjective method. This is self-analysis, re¿ection upon one's own states, the ex...

Excerpt from Science and a Future LifeThe elaborate Reports of the Society for Psychical Research seldom get beyond the shelves of its mem bers, and it is possible that few of this class read them with any such care and patience as students are made to bestow upon Aristotle, Kant, and Hegel. I know one prominent member who had my own lengthy report on his table for six months without knowing what it was about. If those who profess allegiance t...

Excerpt from Psychical Research and SurvivalThe term psychic research is easily mis understood by two separate and Opposed types of mind. Both classes assume that it primarily has to do with spirits, but one ridicules the subject, While the other looks to it for proof of its hope or belief. This limita tion of import, however, is a mistake. The only thing that will make this clear is a history of the movement which names its work by this term....

Excerpt from The Ethics of the Greek Philosophers, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle: A Lecture Given Before the Brooklyn Ethical Association, Season of 1896 1897This series of lectures was proposed and arranged chie¿y by our former esteemed President, Mr. Z. Sidney Sampson, whose death in 1897, followed by some changes in the Association, has been one of the causes which have helped to delay the publication, but it has now devolved on the undersi...

Excerpt from The Elements of EthicsThe present work is designed as an introductory treatise upon the fundamental problems of theoretical ethics, and therefore to obtain standing ground from which to consider the practical questions that are affected by general principles. The book may seem rather an elaborate treatise for an introduction, but so great are the complications of ethical problems, so manifold are their interests, and so various ha...

Excerpt from Democracy: A Study of GovernmentCarlyle, after showing Emerson the House of Commons, thought he would annihilate his friend's optimism in politics by abruptly asking him, "Don't you believe in the Devil now?" The memory of this incident, and the condition of things in this country, suggested that the title for the present essay should be "The Devil's Harness." But publishers might fear a bon mot for a title, and the advocates of p...

Excerpt from Contact With the Other World: The Latest Evidence as to Communication With the DeadIt was at least impossible to evade the discussion Of the doctrine of spiritualism in the face of its claims. No matter what our deci sion about telepathy, dousing, telekinesis, and hypnotism, the ap parent meaning Of apparitions and mediumistic phenomena re quired further consideration, and whether we believed or dishe lieved in the Spiritistic int...

Excerpt from Enigmas of Psychical ResearchThe present volume may be considered as a sup plement to the one on Science and a Future Life, which has been published. In that work I gave a very inadequate summary of the phenomena bearing upon Telepathy and Apparitions, and I said nothing what ever regarding several other types of phenomena hav ing an equal scientific interest. I was' occupied in that volume with facts related more directly to the ...
