Excerpt from The Real the Rational and the Alogical: Being Suggestions for a Philosophical Reconstruction In the years that have elapsed since The Roots of Reality was first thought out and written down, the currents of philosophical opinion in English-speaking countries and elsewhere have considerably shifted their ground. The old Hegelian positions which dominated English speculative thought during the last quarter of the nineteenth century, and were still powerful in the opening years of the present, have been deserted by the exponents of up-to-date philosophic thought. They arc no longer fashionable. Hence the amount of space in this book devoted to the refutation of the main Hegelian position - which I have called "Pallogism" but which it is fashionable now to term "Intellectualism" and which constitutes the basis of the Hegelian philosophy, namely, the assumption of the intellectual concept as the sole ultimate principle of Reality - may be regarded as excessive and the argument itself as unnecessarily laboured. I have nevertheless left the portions dealing with "Pallogism" mainly intact. The position itself has played too great a part in the history of speculative thought, from Plato downward, to be treated as though it were affected by the mere passing philosophical fashions of the hour. Perhaps the two most noteworthy recent portents in the early twentieth-century philosophical world are "Bergsonism" and "Pragmatism." These two doctrines, so fashionable within the last few years, have, in the present work, received fuller consideration. At the time, indeed, when The Roots of Reality was published, the ideas of M. Bergson were hardly known in England. There is much in M. Bergson's speculations that harmonises with the principles set forth in these pages.

Excerpt from The Real the Rational and the Alogical: Being Suggestions for a Philosophical Reconstruction IN the following pages the author, starting from certain postulates, founded in the consistency of consciousness itself, seeks to rough-hew some outlines indicating the leading directions such as it appears to him any future philosophic con struction is bound to take (or, if this be disputed, let us say, at least to take account of) if it aspires to be even relatively adequate to the needs of the up-to-date philosophic mind. The general basis in question is here found uncompromisingly in that of modern philosophical Idealism, though not perhaps in the form in which it has loomed largest in modern philosophic thought, or indeed, precisely in any form in which it has been hitherto presented. On the contrary. What to the author seems a more adequate formulation is suggested in accordance with which the leading problems in the chief departments of Experience are sketched out. The author is aware of certain shortcomings (real or apparent) that the critic may find in the present book. These may be summed up generally as (x) the going over, here and there, however briefly, for the purposes of the argument.

From the INTRODUCTION. The restlessness so characteristic of modern thought generally is even more noticeable in philosophy than in other departments. The problems of metaphysics naturally form a favorite hunting-ground for negative criticism to disport itself. The young man fresh from the university, whose bent leads him into the region of speculative thought, feels it incumbent upon him to show his quality by the attempt to scuttle some hitherto established philosophic position. Unfortunately the net result in positive knowledge of the heavy artillery of criticism so freely brought to bear on existing statements and solutions of speculative problems is exiguous in the extreme, recalling the relative proportions of "bread" and "sack" in the well-known quotation. It is much easier nowadays to snatch a measure of success as a critic than as a constructive thinker. Let us take in review the main philosophical attitudes that have prevailed within the memory of the present generation and then consider in greater detail some of the more important positions of recent and current thought. Empiricism, now better known as the theory of the "Associational school" was the dominant attitude in the fifties and sixties of the last century in this country and to a large extent also on the continent of Europe. This theory, the national output par excellence of British speculation, from its origin in Hobbes and Locke and its working out by the Scottish psychological school (setting aside for the moment its idealistic and skeptical reduction by Berkeley and Hume respectively), in the main took sense-perception as an irreducible basis and the mind in a psychological sense as the mere receiver and coordinator through its thought function of the ready-made perceptions, as they were assumed to be, which it obtained through the special senses. The theory won popularity owing to its plausibility and apparent accordance with plain common-sense. A closer analysis, however, discloses the fact that the doctrine of Empiricism really evades the main problems of philosophy, that its postulates are not ultimate in themselves, but presuppose conditions which the theory ignores, that its truth, such as it is, is little better than platitude, and that the truth claimed for it by some of its exponents is not truth at all but fallacy. "Empiricism" or "Associationism" may indeed be regarded as historically a one-sided pendant to the equally one-sided dogmatism of the earlier Continental schools deriving from Descartes and Leibnitz. It is also indirectly in the line of tradition of the old scholastic Nominalism. Empiricism, however, it may be noted, though in itself mainly a psychological doctrine, had two important offshoots in what we may term popular philosophy viz. the materialism of the eighteenth century and the agnosticism of the nineteenth century. I regard the latter as deriving from British Empiricism, although some might be inclined to affiliate it to the "Criticism" of Kant. In this connection we must not forget, however, the part played by British Empiricism, through Hume and Reid, in Kant's thought.....

British Literature and the Life of Institutions charts a literary prehistory of the welfare state in Britain around 1900, but it also marks a major intervention in current theoretical debates about critique and the dialectical imagination. By placing literary studies in dialogue with politicaltheory, philosophy, and the history of ideas, the book reclaims a substantive reformist language that we have ignored to our own loss. This reformist idiom made it possible to imagine the state as a speculative and aspirational idea--as a fully realized form of life rather than as an uninspiringensemble of administrative procedures and bureaucratic processes. This volume traces the resonances of this idiom from the Victorian period to modernism, ranging from Mary Augusta Ward, George Gissing, and H. G. Wells, to Edward Carpenter and E. M. Forster. Compared to this reformist language, theeconomism that dominates current debates about the welfare state signals an impoverishment that is at once intellectual, cultural, and political. Critiquing the shortcomings of the welfare state comes naturally to us, but we often struggle to offer up convincing defences of its principles and aims.This book intervenes in these debates by urging a richer understanding of critique: speculation, this provocative new study suggests, does not signify the cancellation of critique but an aspirational moment inherent in critique itself. If we want to defend the state, Kohlmann argues, we need tolearn to think about it again.
