A propos de cet article

Language: English. About The Book : The winter of 1899-1900 was one of uncommon, though in several respects of extremely painful, interest to the observant traveller in India. The ravages of plague and famine were over extended areas more severe and destructive than even of one under British rule; and the Government was being hampered and even thwarted in its efforts to mitigate the distress of the multitudes, chiefly by their own gross and absurd superstitions. Lnlany of the people believed that the plague had been brought upon the nation through the intercession with the gods of Queen Victoria in her wrath at the defilement of her statue on the maidan or public plaza of the city of Bombay. The story of the invitation to spend the winter lecturing in India—its nature and how it came to be given —needs, then, briefly to be told. Most of this story was wholly unknown to me until after the invitation had been received and accepted; and, indeed, after I had been for some time in the country. The only inkling of any such thing in prospect came in the form of a request from Professor Maher, the celebrated teacher and writer on psychology and philosophy at the Jesuit College in Stonyhurst, England. His letter asked that he should bo provided with some favorable notices of my books to send to a friend in India who wished to know more about them with a view to a possible use of them there. As the poisonous doctrines of Spencerian agnosticism and infidelity. But this refusal was an embarrassing thing for both the College and the University. For St. Francis Xavier was a favorite college with the Parsees of Bombay ;and the Parsees, in comparison with their numbers, were much the most wealthy, well-educated, and public-spirited of the citizens of the Bombay Presidency. About The Author : George Trumbull Ladd (1842 –1921) was an American philosopher, educator and psychologist. Ladd was born in Painesville, Ohio, on January 19, 1842, the son of SilasTrumbull Ladd and Elizabeth Williams. He was a grandson of Jesse Ladd and Ruby Brewster, who were among the original pioneers in Madison, Lake County, Ohio. He was also a seventh generation direct lineal descendant of Daniel Ladd, Sr. (1613–1693). After graduation, he went into business with his father. In 1871 he began to preach at the Spring Street Congregational Church of Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, leaving in 1879.He was professor of intellectual and moral philosophy at Bowdoin College from 1879 to 1881, and Clark Professor of Metaphysics and Moral Philosophy at Yale University (a professorship that still exists) from 1881 until 1901, when he took charge of the Graduate Department of Philosophy and Psychology. Ladd became professor emeritus in 1905,and retired in 1906.
