The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 7 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 7: January-December, 1910 I 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 impossibility of obtaining any concept that shall have the unlimited denotation and connotation attributed to being or reality. Indeed, I do not feel at all sure that the words being and reality mean anything in exact discourse. But I waive that general question for the sake of isolating a narrower issue.

The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, 1920, Vol. 17 (Classic Reprint) by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, 1920, Vol. 17 There was a moment when we saw great things in Pragmatism and Creative Evolution. The natural sciences had become arrogant. They had begun to deny all kinds of truth but those which were to be apprehended in one way. It was a relief to find some one who would point out other modes, define truth in other terms, and open up again eternal questions by casting salutary doubts upon the intellect and the way it had been conducting itself.

The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 14 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 14: January December, 1917 Now the economic relation, in spite of all its complexities, is very Similar to the relation of two men who merely meet on the road. 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 commodity. In a word, it is a relation of mutual ignorance rather than of mutual knowledge. To make my meaning clear I will ask you to picture to yourself a typically economic situation such as that presented by a great commercial city like New York. During a few hours of the day you will find some hundreds of thousands gathered in the down-town district and engaged in the business of exchange; during the night they are scattered in their homes up-town or out side of the city, in New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut. If you ask what they are exchanging, your first answer may be, useful com modities for personal consumption. But in every act of exchange the commodities offered on one side are simply dollars and those on the other side are offered only in exchange for dollars. And the nearer we come to a completely organized market, such as we find on the Stock Exchange, or the grain or cotton exchange, the less interest we seem to find in useful commodities, grain, cotton, or railways, as such, and the more it seems to be a matter of exchanging certificates or receipts, for anything you please, provided only they are readily convertible into dollars. What we find, then, is a vast concourse of supplies and demands, all expressed in terms of a single abstract, quantitative standard. And in the business district this is, generally speaking, all any man knows of his neighbor, namely, what he will give or what he will take.

The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 9 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 9: January December, 1912 T first sight nothing could seem more obvious than that things, individual blocks, exist. In fact that things exist as indi vidual and distinct has seemed far clearer to common sense than that minds are individual. We only have to recollect that Aristotle found mind (active nous) impersonal and universal, while the body, with the functions depending upon it, seemed to furnish the individual substrate, and that Thomas Aquinas makes the body the principle of individuation, without which human souls, like the angels, would merge into the genus. It is unnecessary to say that philosophy has changed front in this respect, and finds it comparatively easy to recognize the individuality of minds, while the independence and individuality of things has well-nigh disappeared in the general continuum.

The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 8 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 8: January-December, 1911 Such 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 in the other the revenge of justice. Both which could not be expressed upon all mankind, for if all had tasted of the punish ments of justice, the grace and mercy of the Redeemer had had no place in any; and again, if all had been redeemed from death, there had been no object left for the manifestation of God's justice; but now there is more left than taken to mercy, that so it might appear what was due unto all, without any impeachment of God's justice, who notwithstanding having delivered so many, has herein bound us forever to praise his gracious commiseration.

The Journal of Philosophy, 1906, Vol. 3 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal of Philosophy, 1906, Vol. 3: Psychology and Scientific Methods Cognitive experience, as a category, is a reflexive 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, as direct, reports not itself, but its object; and its most immediately empirical language is, 'the thing is, ' or 'is here, ' or 'i know the thing, ' but never 'the thing is held in cogni tive experience.' Whatever the change may be that makes this last language possible, it is a change which throws into relief a new environment of the object. Previously, a thing was known by virtue of its simple presence; now it is seen to be known quite as much by virtue of the presence of something else than itself. The necessary conditions of knowledge are, first, that the thing known be present in some way in the stuff of experience; but, second, that it be present under specific inner auspices. Knowledge, from this angle, is no longer transparent, and its transcendence is wrapped up in these now visible auspices of the thing therein known. In fact, it is here that we come upon that ingredient of transcendence which Professor Bakewell has brought into the field: to this envelope, as other than the experience known, is referable in some way that 'pointing be yond itself' which is characteristic of experience as known.

The Journal Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 10 by Frederick J. E. Woodbridge Pdf
Excerpt from The Journal Philosophy, Psychology and Scientific Methods, Vol. 10: January-December, 1913 This 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. But such an attitude is far-reaching. It is said that Spencer was the first to suggest an evolution of the soul parallel with the evolution of the physical self.2 If one accepts this, and it seems to go along with the general theory of evolution, then one is on the opposite side of the fence from Plato and Aristotle and those who have been especially influenced by their views. This cuts wide and deep, and is too little appreciated. In connection with the field of ethics, I discuss the relation of ethics to the other fields of thought, especially psychology, sociology, and religion. The relation to psychology raises the question of the kind of psychology, and the answer that I find is experimental psychology. That is, of course, recent, and there is much as yet undetermined. But the relation of ethics as a variable, dependent upon scientific psychology, itself a variable, is, to my mind, prefer able to any static relation.

Cheryl Misak offers a strikingly new view of the development of philosophy in the twentieth century. Pragmatism, the home-grown philosophy of America, thinks of truth not as a static relation between a sentence and the believer-independent world, but rather, a belief that works. The founders of pragmatism, Peirce and James, developed this idea in more (Peirce) and less (James) objective ways. The standard story of the reception of American pragmatism in England is that Russell and Moore savaged James's theory, and that pragmatism has never fully recovered. An alternative, and underappreciated, story is told here. The brilliant Cambridge mathematician, philosopher and economist, Frank Ramsey, was in the mid-1920s heavily influenced by the almost-unheard-of Peirce and was developing a pragmatist position of great promise. He then transmitted that pragmatism to his friend Wittgenstein, although had Ramsey lived past the age of 26 to see what Wittgenstein did with that position, Ramsey would not have like what he saw.

The Essential Dewey: Volume 2 by Larry A. Hickman,Thomas M. Alexander Pdf
The second half of the insightful anthology of essays and book chapters from the American technical philosopher. In addition to being one of the greatest technical philosophers of the twentieth century, John Dewey (1859–1952) was an educational innovator, a Progressive Era reformer, and one of America’s last great public intellectuals. Dewey’s insights into the problems of public education, immigration, the prospects for democratic government, and the relation of religious faith to science are as fresh today as when they were first published. His penetrating treatments of the nature and function of philosophy, the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of life, and the role of inquiry in human experience are of increasing relevance at the turn of the twenty-first century. Based on the award-winning thirty-seven-volume critical edition of Dewey’s work, The Essential Dewey presents for the first time a collection of Dewey’s writings that is both manageable and comprehensive. The volume includes essays and book chapters that exhibit Dewey’s intellectual development over time; the selection represents his mature thinking on every major issue to which he turned his attention. Eleven part divisions cover: Dewey in Context; Reconstructing Philosophy; Evolutionary Naturalism; Pragmatic Metaphysics; Habit, Conduct, and Language; Meaning, Truth, and Inquiry; Valuation and Ethics; The Aims of Education; The Individual, the Community, and Democracy; Pragmatism and Culture: Science and Technology, Art and Religion; and Interpretations and Critiques. Taken as a whole, this collection provides unique access to Dewey’s understanding of the problems and prospects of human existence and of the philosophical enterprise. “In the course of his long life, Dewey wrote and published on myriad topics: certainly, and perhaps most importantly to him, on public education, but also—and extensively—on technical philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, logic, aesthetics, religion, science, ethics, and social philosophy. And though neglected by academic philosophers for a time, Dewey’s pragmatic orientation has recently proved influential in the thought of Quine, Putnam, and Rorty, among others. This two-volume collection of essays and book chapters, culled from an earlier 37-volume critical edition of his works, provides for the first time a publication of his writings that is both manageable and comprehensive.” —Library Journal

This anthology demonstrates the richness and diversity of the American intellectual heritage. In it we see how Jonathan Edwards grapples with the problem of how to reconcile freedom and responsibility with Calvinist religious beliefs; how Franklin and Jefferson exemplified American enlightenment thought; and how the Transcendentalists, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, formulated their particular romantic idealist beliefs. A second and significant portion of the anthology is devoted to Pragmatism. Substantive excerpts from Peirce, James and Dewey, as well as Royce, are collected here. A third part is devoted to other Twentieth-Century American philosophies. No other collection of writings in this field includes the breadth of coverage that this one does. Among the chapters in this third part of the book are those on early Process Philosophy, Phenomenology, Positivism, and Language Philosophies. Selections from such philosophers as Whitehead, Weiss, Buchler, Gurwitsch, Sellars, Quine, Davidson, and Rawls, along with many others are included in this part. A final chapter is devoted to twentieth-century American Moral Philosophy. The book is specifically designed to be used as a text for courses in American philosophy. A substantive introduction that emphasizes the historical setting as well as major interests and ideas of the philosophers accompanies each chapter. Extensive bibliographies and study guide questions follow each chapter. The selections include more than any one course will cover, but in their completeness also allow individual teachers and readers to select what they want.
Theories of Bildung and Growth by Pauli Siljander,Ari Kivelä,Ari Sutinen Pdf
Continental philosophy of education and North American educational thinking are two traditions of their own, yet it is fruitful to compare for similarities and differences between the two and thus generate interest in a mutual dialogue and exchange between European and North American of philosophy of education. The present book analyzes theoretical thinking on education from the standpoints of both traditions. The book deals with continental educational thinking while discussing the notion of Bildung and its diversity, from J.A.Comenius to Th. Adorno. In addition, the book discusses the idea of growth inherited from American progressive education and classical Pragmatism. The various contributors to the book offer insights to the theoretical discussion on education, and specify the historical and thematic connections between different thinking models. The book shows that connections between continental educational theories and classical Pragmatism are stronger than generally assumed. As such, the book invites the readers to challenge their own prejudices and views on Bildung and growth, and the relationship between them. “Education would be tyranny if it did not lead to freedom.” (J.F. Herbart) “The teacher who can get along by keeping spontaneous interest excited must be regarded as the teacher with the greatest skill.” (W. James)
