Excerpt from Dissertations on Leading Philosophical Topics I have here reproduced in full, and with almost no change, the principal articles to which reference was made in the Preface to the Fourth Edition of The Emotions and the Will. They contain, with some little difference in statement, my latest views on such of those debated issues as were not adequately expounded or not given in final shape in either of my two volumes on Psychology. Certain of the articles here reproduced do not essentially belong to the Psychology of the last volume, and are not in the list referred to in the Addenda to the Fourth Edition. Perhaps, the most distinctive of these last is that entitled Mills Theory of the Syllogism. To the articles reproduced from Mind, I have added a paper "On the Pressure of Examinations," part of which appeared in Criticisms of a Protest against Examinations, issued by Mr. Auberon Herbert, in 1888. This, though not directly psychological, is germane to the subject, and may have interest for the student of philosophy. The remaining Essay, on "The Scope of Anthropology and its Relation to the Science of Mind," was a paper read to the British Association, at the Aberdeen Meeting, in 1885.

A History of Scottish Philosophy is a series of collaborative studies, each volume being devoted to a specific period. Together they provide a comprehensive account of the Scottish philosophical tradition, from the centuries that laid the foundation of the remarkable burst of intellectual fertility known as the Scottish Enlightenment, through the Victorian age and beyond, when it continued to exercise powerful intellectual influence at home and abroad. The books aim to be historically informative, while at the same time serving to renew philosophical interest in the problems with which the Scottish philosophers grappled, and in the solutions they proposed. This volume covers the history of Scottish philosophy after the Enlightenment period, through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Leading experts explore the lives and work of major figures including Thomas Brown, William Hamilton, J. F. Ferrier, Alexander Bain, John Macmurray, and George Davie, and address important developments in the period from the Scottish reception of Kant and Hegel to the spread of Scottish philosophy in Europe, America and Australasia, and the relation of Common Sense philosophy and American pragmatism. A concluding chapter investigates the nature and identity of a 'Scottish philosophical tradition'. General Editor: Gordon Graham, Princeton Theological Seminary

Abstract: [\ ABSTRACT [\ Every theory of organization and leadership is rooted in a specific philosophy of action with its metaphysical, ethical and epistemological dimensions. I put forward a theory of leadership and organization in education from a standpoint, relatively new to the field, of philosophy of recognition. Recognition is the process through which we perceive self, other selves, and things, apprehending their ontological, ethical and epistemological realities. Apart from these cognitive processes, recognition includes practical wisdom and action that are the basis of any theory of leadership and organization. Philosophical style and viewpoint are explicit in order to visit as many general aspects of recognition as possible throughout this work. Recognition appears as the nucleolus of the human quest for cognition and action, and thus also as a phenomenon common to all accounts and standpoints of leadership. People want to be duly recognized and leaders are expected to recognize them. Possible mismatches between these two belong to the realm of the art of leadership, qua action or function, which is here called the Leadership of Recognition. Leadership of Recognition is put to the fore with a wide range of issues in education organized around five subsequent areas: recognition as desired dialogics; objectives of recognition; freedom as the core of human action; the exercise of power as the practice of justice in organizations; and leadership as capacity to act. Efforts to attain prestige in and through education can be explained by the phenomena of struggle for recognition. People set themselves in a dialogical position in relation to others where they seek to be known, appreciated, desired and loved. Recognition is firstly a perceptive ability. Recognition of numerous equalities and differences among existing beings-ontology-enables an agent to grasp realities by analogy, partly similar and partly dissimilar. A number of issues in education such as pluralism, multiculturalism and racial parity in organizations can thus be explained. The relationship between recognized realities and an agent resides in purposefulness prior to action. Recognition qua perception is followed by deliberation, a ''self- determining'' course of action or function. This examined and disciplined process from perception to action is phronesis, an ancient Greek concept of ''administrative ability'' or ''practical wisdom''. In the centre of recognition, from perception to action, stands human freedom. The natural or charismatic aspect of freedom is fragile and vulnerable to personal mistakes (akrasia, vices) and to external coercion. Political freedom or freedom in regard to others is acquired through practice. Nobody else than the agent himself or herself can iiacquire it since the task of self-determination is non-transferable. A sine qua non condition for actions and self-determination of freedom emerges as an ideal of education. At a collective level, most important administrative and managerial actions amount to the practice of justice as a system and justice as a virtue without a clear-cut demarcation. Leadership practices-petite political art [politike techne]-should manifest both. Leadership qua administration and management of organization is after the common good, which cannot and should not be distinguished clearly from individual good. The practice of leadership with recognized authority and delegated power can be equa

Essays And Treatises On Philosophical Subjects written by David Hume and has been published by Broadview Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013-05-06 with Philosophy categories.
This is the first edition in over a century to present David Hume’s Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, Dissertation on the Passions, Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals, and Natural History of Religion in the format he intended: collected together in a single volume. Hume has suffered a fate unusual among great philosophers. His principal philosophical work is no longer published in the form in which he intended it to be read. It has been divided into separate parts, only some of which continue to be published. This volume repairs that neglect by presenting the four pieces that Hume in later life desired to "alone be regarded as containing [his] philosophical sentiments and principles" in the format he preferred, as a single volume with an organization that parallels that of his early Treatise of Human Nature. This edition’s introduction comments on the historical origins and evolution of the four parts and draws attention to how they mutually inform and support one another. The text is based on the first (1758) edition of Hume’s Essays and Treatises on Several Subjects. Notes advise the reader of the changes made in the final (1777) edition. Excerpts from the work of some of Hume’s most important contemporary critics are included as appendices. Hume’s abundant references to ancient historians, geographers, poets, and philosophers—many of them now quite obscure—are rendered accessible in this volume through extensive textual notes and a bibliography of online sources.

The Cambridge Companion to the Scottish Enlightenment offers a philosophical perspective on an eighteenth-century movement that has been profoundly influential on western culture. A distinguished team of contributors examines the writings of David Hume, Adam Smith, Thomas Reid, Adam Ferguson, Colin Maclaurin and other Scottish thinkers, in fields including philosophy, natural theology, economics, anthropology, natural science and law. In addition, the contributors relate the Scottish Enlightenment to its historical context and assess its impact and legacy in Europe, America and beyond. The result is a comprehensive and accessible volume that illuminates the richness, the intellectual variety and the underlying unity of this important movement. It will be of interest to a wide range of readers in philosophy, theology, literature and the history of ideas.
