LIBRARY OF PHILOSOPHY


As  may   be seen  from the  original programme  printed in
Erdmann's   History of Philosophy under  the date 589o, the
Library  of Philosophy was designed as a contribution to the
History  of  Modern  Philosophy  under  the  heads: first of
different Schools of Thought-Sensationalist, Realist, Idealist,
Intuitivist; secondly of different Subjects-Psychology, Ethics,
,Esthetics, Political Philosophy, Theology. While much  had

French  and Italian, which had either become classical or were
attracting public attention, had developed. The scope of the
Library  thus became  extended  into something  more  inter-
