Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 2: January December, 1905HE idea of possibility has a variety of usages which are, how ever, mainly two, as follows: First, it sometimes alleges a peculiar predicate of reality, a quality through which the not yet existent may become so, and moreover become so indeterminately. 'this or that may happen, either is possible', and it is implied that the realization of ...

Pp. 310 - 311.Judd adds, by a unique type of activity which we describe when we use the word 'consciousness.' The conclusion that the self, or the basal fact of psychology, stands in close relation to its body, presses the question: What, more precisely, is the nature of this relation? Di...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, 1906, Vol. 3: Psychology and Scientific MethodsCognitive experience, as a category, is a re¿exive and secondary accomplishment of the mind. This does not mean! That it is a crea tion, nor that it is a discovery, as of some elusive and almost invisible content, but'that it is as a category an after-view. In direct living we are in presence of things, we know nothing of cognition. The cognitive experience,...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 8: January-December, 1911Such already is the God of Augustine, and hence of historic ortho doxy. From that condemnation, says the great father, which came upon mankind as a result of the sin of the parents, none can ever be freed, but by the free and gracious mercy of God, which makes a separation of mankind, to shew in one of the remainders the power of grace, and...

Excerpt from MetaphysicsIf, however, we turn from the inspiring title to the writ ings themselves, illusions about the supernatural character of metaphysics tend to disappear. There is, so we are told by the Stagirite, a science which investigates exist ence as existence and whatever belongs to existence as such. It is identical with none of the sciences which are defined less generally. For none of these professedly considers existence as exi...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 7: January-December, 1910I desire in the present investigation to leave out of consideration a rapidly growing doubt as to the possibility of any such branch of knowledge as ontology in the traditional sense. Thus it may well be that the failure of the materialistic ontology is due not so much to the special limitations of the concept matter, as to the impossibilit...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, 1915, Vol. 12All the particular needs comprised in the general problem may be grouped under two heads, or classes of good, viz., knowledge and practical well-being, giving us the joys of contemplation and those of action or passion. Though both sorts of good may reside in one and the same object, or one kind may be the means to the other, they are distinct ends, and oft...

It is a relation in which men are strangers to one another at every point but one: what each knows of the other is simply what he will give in terms of money or what he will take in terms of a specified commo...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Philosophy and Scientific Methods, Vol. 4: January December, 1907The determination of the presence of Special groups of organic sensations in perception has brought with it the question as to their presence and function in memory consciousness. The discovery that in the recognition of a stimulus presented a second time the special sense image of the first stimulus may be absent, while organic factors aro...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Vol. 16: Psychology and Scientific Methods, January December, 1919I will try first of all to set forth what I conceive to 'be the most important features, from my point of view, in Professor Dewey's doctrine as regards data. [to a great extent I am in agreement with his doctrine, but I shall leave the critical consideration of it until I have endeavored to state it. Let us begin with some quotations.Abou...

Excerpt from The Journal Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 10: January-December, 1913This general scientific attitude involves, among other things, the scientific view of man, which I frankly accept. I see no good reason why we should not make an independent study of man to-day, and make that basal in our interpretation of men's relations to one another, than that Plato or Aristotle should have made such a study in their _day...

Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, 1920, Vol. 17As to the other non-intellectual form of truth - the aesthetic intui tion of chaos - it was easy enough to see that it might have been grasped the better without a meddling mind. But it was not so easy to see that M. Bergson would have been the greater philosopher if he had had less of his wits about him. It was hard to see that his philosophy would have em...
