Excerpt from The Nature of Truth: An Essay The following Essay does not pretend to establish a new theory. Its object is to examine certain typical notions of truth, one or other of which - whether in the form of a vague assumption, or raised to the level of an explicit theory - has hitherto served as the basis of philosophical speculation. If I am not mistaken, every one of these typical notions and accredited theories of truth fails sooner or later to maintain itself against critical investigation. And I have tried, whilst exhibiting the nature and the grounds of their failure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Essays on Truth and Reality I have been unwilling to include so many pages on Pragmatism. The subject certainly does not occupy a corresponding space in my mind. But the reader perhaps will recognize that, having been in a manner forced here to write in self-defence, I am no longer free merely to consult my own wishes. He will find, I trust, that the discussion, if too long, throws light on some points of interest; and in any case the remedy remains in his power. On the other hand, I should be sorry if the examination of 'Radical Empiricism' were left unread. It is a satisfaction to me, when approaching the end of my own career, to note (whatever school or tendency may from time to time be in fashion) the increasing devotion amongst us to metaphysical inquiry. There has been, I think, a rise in the general level of English philosophical thought such as fifty years ago might well have seemed incredible. I am the more resigned to add that the best which I can now myself expect to do is to collect some other scattered writings, as well as perhaps to republish those early volumes which I can no longer hope to re-write.

Excerpt from Reality and Truth: A Critical and Constructive Essay Concerning Knowledge, Certainty, and Truth For many years it has been my great desire to give to my fellow-countrymen, and, if might be, to the English speaking world, a critical but definite treatment of the foundations of knowledge, truth, and certainty. N 0 pro blem could conceivably be more insistent or more urgent. Like the piles that are driven deep below the surface of the water, unseen but necessary supports, the theory of knowledge upholds all. Whatever we attempt within the whole vast range of the theoretical or practical sciences, all depends ultimately upon our solution of the problem of knowledge. Thus whether we are interested in theology or natural science, in speculative philosophy or social work, in politics and economics, or art and literature, matters little. \vhen one man sets out to think or two set out to agree upon some idea or plan, they invariably rely upon some accepted view of the limits and possibilities of our knowing powers, and al most invariably they differ. We all have some working theory of knowledge, however ill-defined and inarticulate. And there lies the danger.

Excerpt from The Objectivity of Truth The greater part of this Essay was written in Germany in 1883, at the close of my second year of study as Hibbert Travelling Scholar. The theory advocated in it, however, had occurred to me in its main outlines several years, previously upon first becoming acquainted with Hegelian thought through Dr. Hutchison Stirling's celebrated work, The Secret of Hegel.
