A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The rational judgment is that which is consistent, grounded and objective, the first two characters being the test of the third. (2) The search for grounds leads up to immediate judgments both particular and general. Particular immediate judgments, however, are not indubitably true, but are corroborated by interconnexion. (3) Immediate general judgments likewise require interconnexion. (4) Interconnectedness is in fact the rational basis of belief. (5) The grounds on which interconnexion rests are universal relations. (6) The principles of interconnexion rest on the consilience of all consistent acts of inference. (7) The rational in cognition is then the effort to attain truth by the persistent interconnexion of judgments through universal relations. CHAPTER IV THE GOOD ... 5e (i) Is there any reason in the choice of ultimate ends, i.e. is there a Rational Good ?(2) Generically the Good appears as a harmony (mutual support) of feeling and effort, (3) or of feeling and passive experience including, e.g., observation of the behaviour of another. Generically pleasure is feeling in harmony and pain in disharmony. (4) The fact asserted by the judgment This is Good is thus a relation between an experience and a feeling. Either element may be called good as pertaining to the whole. CHAPTER VTHE RATIONAL GOOD .... 78 (i) The Rational Good must be a consistent scheme of purposes interconnected by universal relations in which subjective disturbance is eliminated. (2) This involves a dual harmony of feeling with feeling and of feeling with experience. (3) There may be internal consistency from a more partial point of view but rationality involves universalism, i.e. a system comprehending the whole world of all minds in a single scheme.
