Nor should one overlook the fact that the essays in each volume cannot but finally lead to this same goal. vn THE LIBRARY OF LIVING PHILOSOPHERS vm meet this aim by providing at the end of each volume m our series a complete bibliography of the published work of the philosopher in question. shall attempt to We Thu Library, u General Introduction, setting forth the underlying conception of this purposely reprinted in each volume (with only very minor changes). The all thought of the does this Library pretend to be Library in fact, will spare neither effort nor expense in offering to the student the best possible guide to the published writings of a given thinker. Students such men as substitute for first-hand contact with the original philosopher himself. Moore, Bertrand Russell, Ernst Cassirer, Leon Brunschvicg, Martin Heidegger, et al., will still need to read the writings of these men. The volumes of T he Library of Living Philosophers can in no sense take the place of the major writings of great and etiquette a philosopher’s who would know the philosophies of John Dewey, George Santayana, Alfred North Whitehead, Benedetto Croce, G. This, at any rate, is the basic thought behind the present undertaking. It is none the less true that there would be far greater clarity of understanding than is now often the case, if more such searching questions had been directed to great thinkers while they were still alive. ![]() Living thinkers have often been asked “a few searching questions,” but their answers have not stopped “interminable controversies” about their real meaning. Schiller, the greatest obstacle to fruitful discussion in philosophy is “the curious which apparently taboos the asking of questions about meaning while he is alive.” The “interminable controversies which fill the histones of philosophy,” he goes on to say, “could have been ended at once by asking the living philosophers a few searching questions.” The confident optimism of this last remark undoubtedly goes too far.
