As opponents this tendency found, on the one hand, the rigid Orthodoxiem <>f Ventura IT'. '. ' 18t;i Tappaielll and Liberatore (Drlla Conosreuza Intel- letnale, 1865), and, on the other hand, politically radical Scepticism, as repre sented by Guiseppe Ferrari (1811-1808 La Filosofla delle Reroluzioni, 1861) and Antonio Franckl (La Religione del 19. Secolo, 1863). The Kantian philosophy was introduced by Alf. Teata (1784-1800; Delia Critica delta lingione Punt, 1841» ff. ), and uioru successfully by C. Canton! (born 1840; cf. above, 632), F.

In Germany (cf. J. E. Erdmann. History of Phil. [Eng. tr. Vol. III. ] :Ui\ ff. ) the first development was that of the great philosophic schools in the third and fourth decades of the century. Herbert's following proved the most complete in Itself and firmest in it* adherence. In were prominent: M.

632 Philosophy of ilte Nineteenth Century. [Part VII
The "right wing" of the Hegelian school, which resisted a pantheistic inter pretation of the master, and emphasised the metaphysical importance of per sonality, attracted those thinkers who stood in a freer relation to Hegel, and maintained Fichtean and Leibniziau motifs. Such were I. H. Fichte (son of the creator of the Wissenschaftslehre, 1797-1879 ; Beiträge zur Characteristic, der neueren Philosophie, 1829 ; Ethik, 1850 ff. ; Anthropologie, 1856), C. Fort- lage (1806-1881; System der Psychologie, 1856), Christ. Weisse (1801-1880; System der Ästhetik, 1830 and 1871 ; Grundzüge der Metaphysik, 1835 ; Ihi> philosophische Problem der Gegenwart, 1842 ; Philosophie des Christenthumi, 1855 ff. ), H. Ulrioi (180Ö-1884 ; Das Grundprincip der Philosophie, 1845 f. ; Gott und die Natur, 1861 ; Gott und der Mensch, 1866); further, E. Trahn- dorf (1782-1863; JEsthetik, 1827), Mor. Carriere (1817-1895; Ästhetik, 185! '. 3d ed. 1885 ; Die Kunst im Zusammenhang der Kulturentwickelung, 5 vols. ).
Related to these was, on the one side, K. Rothe (1797-1867; Theolngisehr Ethik, 2d ed. 1867-1871 ; cf. on his speculative system, H. Holtzmann, 1899), who interwove many suggestions from the idealistic development into an origi nal mysticism, and on the other side A. Trendelenburg, who set the concep tion of " Motion " in the place of Hegel's dialectical principle, and thought thereby to combat Hegel's philosophy. His merit, however, lies in the stimulus which he gave to Aristotelian studies (1802-1872; Logische Untersuchungen. 1840 ; Naturrecht, 1860).
To the " Left" among the Hegelians belong Arnold Huge (1802-1880 ; joint editor with Echtermeyer of the Halle'sehe Jahrbücher, 1838-1840, and of the Deutsche Jahrbücher, 1841 f. ; coll. writings in 10 vols. , Mannheim, 184« ff. "). Ludwig Feuerbach (1804-1872 ; Gedanken über Tod und Unsterblichkeit, IS}»: Philosophie und Christentum, 1839; Wesen des Chrislenthums, 1841 ; U>w» der Religion, 1846; Theogonie, 1857 ; Works, 10 vols. , Leips. 1840 ff. ). Cf. K. Grün (L. F. , Leips. 1874), David Friedrich Strauss (1808-1874 ; Das Lei** Jesu, 1835; Christliche Glaubenslehre, 1840 f. ; Der Alte und der neue Glaube,
1872 ; Works, 12 vols. , Berlin, 1876 ff. ). Cf. A. Hausrath, D. F. Str. und die Theologie seiner Zeit (Heidelberg, 1876 and 1878).
From the Materialism controversy are to be mentioned : K. Moleschott (Kreislauf des Lebens, 1852), Rudolph Wagner (Ueber Wissen und Glauben, 1854; Der Kampf um die Seele, 1857), C. Vogt (Köhlerglaube und Wissen schaft, 1854 ; Vorlesungen über den Menschen, 1863), L. Büchner (Kraft und Stoff, 1855) [Force and Matter, Lond. l.
Related to this materialism was the development of the extreme Sensualism in the form in which it was presented by H. Czolbe (1819-1873; Neue Dar stellung des Sensualismiis, 1855 ; Grundzüge, der extensionalen Erkenntniss- theorie, 1875), and by F. Ueberweg (1826-1871), who was originally more closely related to Beneke (cf. A. Lange, History of Materialism, IL). In a similar relation stood the so-called Monism which E. Haeckel (born 1814 ; Natürliche Schöpfungsgeschichte, 1868 ; Welträlhsel, nth ed. 1900 : cf. Loots, Anti-Haeckel, 1900, and Fr. Paulsen, E. ' H. als Philosoph. Preuss. Jahrl*. 1900) has attempted to develop, and finally the socialistic Philosophy of His tory, whose founders are Fr. Engels (Ludwig Feuerbach und der Ausgang der klassischen deutschen Philosophie, 1888 ; Der Ursprung der Familie, des Pri- vateigenthums und des Staates, 1884) and Karl Marx (Das Kapital, 1867 ff. . Capital, 1801); cf. on Engels and Marx, R. Stammler, Wirthschaft und Hecht, 1896 ; L. Wolfmann, Der historische Materialistnus, 1900.
By far the most important among the epigones of the German Philosophy was Rudolph Herrn. Lotze (1817-1881 ; Metaphysik, 1841 ; Logik, 1842 ; Medi- cinische Psychologie, 1842; Mikrokosmus, 1856 ff. ; System der Philosophie. 1.

L. in seiner Stellung zur deutschen Philosophie (188;? ); E. v. Hartmann, L. 's Philosophie (Berlin, 1888); H. Jones, Phüos. of /. . , 189i
Interesting side phenomena are : G. T. Fechner (1801-1887 ; Nanna, 1848; Physical, und philos. Atomenlehre, 1865; Elemente der Psychophysik, 1860; Drei Motive des Glaubens, 1868 ; Vorschule der Ästhetik, 1876 ; Die Tagesan sicht gegenüber der Nachtansicht, 1879) and Eug. Dühring (born 1833 ; Natür liche Dialektik, 1865 ; Werth des Lebens, 1866 ; Logik und Wissenschafistheorie

IP'S). — The following from the Catholic aide have taken part in the develop ment of philosophy : Fr. Hermea (1775-1831 ; Einleitung in die christkatho-
lische Theologie, 1819), Beruli. Bolaano (1781-1848;
1837), Anton GUnther (1785-1803; Ges. Schriften, Vienna, 1881), and Wil-
helm Roaenkrants (1824-1874 ; Wissenschaft des Wi*»en», 1860).
I'hiloaophic interest in Germany, which was much crippled about the middle of the century, has strongly revived, owing to the union of the study of Kant with the demands of natural science. The former, called forth by Kuno Fischer's work (1800). evoked a movement which has been characterized in various aspects a. « Neo-Kantianlam. To it belong, as principal members, A. Lange (1828- 1876; History of Materialism, 1800) and (). Liebmann (born 1840; Analyst* der Wirklichkeil, 3 Aufl. , 1900). In theology it was represented by Alb. Hitachi ( Theologie und Metaphysik, 1881). [A. T. Swing, Theol. of A. S. 1901. ]
Theoretical Physics became significant for philosophy through the work prin cipally of Rob. Mayer (Bemerkungen liber die Krafte der unbelebten Natur, 1845 ; Ueber das mtchanische ^Equivalent der Warme, 1850 ; cf. on him A.
Riehl in the Sigvsart-Abhandlungen, 1900) and H. Helmholts (Physiologische Optik, 1886 ; Sensations of Tone, 1876 ; Thatsaehen der Wahrnehmung, 1879). Beginning with physiology, Willhelm Wundt (born 1837) has developed a
comprehensive system of philosophy. From his numerous writings may be men tioned Orundziige der physiologischen Psychologic, 1878 f„ 4th ed. 1893 [Outlines of Physiological Psychology, Eng. tr. in prep, by E. Titcnenor] ; Logii, 18801.
Following a suggestion from one aspect of Hamilton's thought, a movement an*ie which sought to develop formal logic as a calculus of symbols. To this movement belong G. Boole (The Mathematical Analysis of Logic, 1847 ; An

iiflix di G. , 180:1).
Terenzo Mamlanl passed through this entire development (1800-1885; Coufessioni di tin Mebtfisir,,, 18*55) l. uigi Ferri (1820-1806), l. abanca, Bonatetli, and others followed it, though intlueuced also by Ueruian and French views.
As opponents this tendency found, on the one hand, the rigid Orthodoxiem <>f Ventura IT'. '. ' 18t;i Tappaielll and Liberatore (Drlla Conosreuza Intel- letnale, 1865), and, on the other hand, politically radical Scepticism, as repre sented by Guiseppe Ferrari (1811-1808 La Filosofla delle Reroluzioni, 1861) and Antonio Franckl (La Religione del 19. Secolo, 1863). The Kantian philosophy was introduced by Alf. Teata (1784-1800; Delia Critica delta lingione Punt, 1841» ff. ), and uioru successfully by C. Canton! (born 1840; cf. above, 632), F. Tocco, S. Turbiglio, and others. Hegel's doctrine wa* intro duced by A. Vara (1813-1885), It. Spaventa (1817-188:5), and Fr. Fiorentino, and Comte's positivism by Cataneo, Ardigo, and I. aliriola. [Cf. for this Italian thought the App. in Ueberweg's Hit. Phil. , Eng. tr. , Vol. II. 401 ff. ]
In Germany (cf. J. E. Erdmann. History of Phil. [Eng. tr. Vol. III. ] :Ui\ ff. ) the first development was that of the great philosophic schools in the third and fourth decades of the century. Herbert's following proved the most complete in Itself and firmest in it* adherence. In were prominent: M.
Drobiech (Religionsphilosophie, 1840; Psychologic, 1842; Die moralischt Statisttk und die menschliche Willensfreiheit, 1807), R. Zimmermann (jEs- thetik. Vienna, 18415), I> Btriimpell (Jfnttplpunkte der Metophysik, 1840; Einleitung in die Philosophir, 1880), T. Ziller (Einleitung in die Allgemrine Pddagogik, I860). special divarication of the school formed by the so-called Volkerpeycholorie [Comparative or Folk-Psychology], as opened by M. Itasexoa (Leben der Seele, 1856 f. ) and H. Stein thai (Aliriss der Sprach- tsistenschafl, I,; Einleilung in die Psychologic und Sprachtrissenschaft, 1871) cL their common programme in Vol. of the Zeitschrift fiir dlkerpsyeholoyie und Sprachmssensrhoft.
The Hegelian School had rich experience in it* own life of the blessing of dialectic; split even in the Thirties upon religious antitheses. The important historian* of philosophy, Zeller and Prantl, Erdmann and Kuno Fischer, went their way, not confused by this. Between the two parties, with consid erable degree of independent thinking, stand K. Rosenkrans (1805-1879;

632 Philosophy of ilte Nineteenth Century. [Part VII
The "right wing" of the Hegelian school, which resisted a pantheistic inter pretation of the master, and emphasised the metaphysical importance of per sonality, attracted those thinkers who stood in a freer relation to Hegel, and maintained Fichtean and Leibniziau motifs. Such were I. H. Fichte (son of the creator of the Wissenschaftslehre, 1797-1879 ; Beiträge zur Characteristic, der neueren Philosophie, 1829 ; Ethik, 1850 ff. ; Anthropologie, 1856), C. Fort- lage (1806-1881; System der Psychologie, 1856), Christ. Weisse (1801-1880; System der Ästhetik, 1830 and 1871 ; Grundzüge der Metaphysik, 1835 ; Ihi> philosophische Problem der Gegenwart, 1842 ; Philosophie des Christenthumi, 1855 ff. ), H. Ulrioi (180Ö-1884 ; Das Grundprincip der Philosophie, 1845 f. ; Gott und die Natur, 1861 ; Gott und der Mensch, 1866); further, E. Trahn- dorf (1782-1863; JEsthetik, 1827), Mor. Carriere (1817-1895; Ästhetik, 185! '. 3d ed. 1885 ; Die Kunst im Zusammenhang der Kulturentwickelung, 5 vols. ).
Related to these was, on the one side, K. Rothe (1797-1867; Theolngisehr Ethik, 2d ed. 1867-1871 ; cf. on his speculative system, H. Holtzmann, 1899), who interwove many suggestions from the idealistic development into an origi nal mysticism, and on the other side A. Trendelenburg, who set the concep tion of " Motion " in the place of Hegel's dialectical principle, and thought thereby to combat Hegel's philosophy. His merit, however, lies in the stimulus which he gave to Aristotelian studies (1802-1872; Logische Untersuchungen. 1840 ; Naturrecht, 1860).
To the " Left" among the Hegelians belong Arnold Huge (1802-1880 ; joint editor with Echtermeyer of the Halle'sehe Jahrbücher, 1838-1840, and of the Deutsche Jahrbücher, 1841 f. ; coll. writings in 10 vols. , Mannheim, 184« ff. "). Ludwig Feuerbach (1804-1872 ; Gedanken über Tod und Unsterblichkeit, IS}»: Philosophie und Christentum, 1839; Wesen des Chrislenthums, 1841 ; U>w» der Religion, 1846; Theogonie, 1857 ; Works, 10 vols. , Leips. 1840 ff. ). Cf. K. Grün (L. F. , Leips. 1874), David Friedrich Strauss (1808-1874 ; Das Lei** Jesu, 1835; Christliche Glaubenslehre, 1840 f. ; Der Alte und der neue Glaube,
1872 ; Works, 12 vols. , Berlin, 1876 ff. ). Cf. A. Hausrath, D. F. Str. und die Theologie seiner Zeit (Heidelberg, 1876 and 1878).
From the Materialism controversy are to be mentioned : K. Moleschott (Kreislauf des Lebens, 1852), Rudolph Wagner (Ueber Wissen und Glauben, 1854; Der Kampf um die Seele, 1857), C. Vogt (Köhlerglaube und Wissen schaft, 1854 ; Vorlesungen über den Menschen, 1863), L. Büchner (Kraft und Stoff, 1855) [Force and Matter, Lond. l.
Related to this materialism was the development of the extreme Sensualism in the form in which it was presented by H. Czolbe (1819-1873; Neue Dar stellung des Sensualismiis, 1855 ; Grundzüge, der extensionalen Erkenntniss- theorie, 1875), and by F. Ueberweg (1826-1871), who was originally more closely related to Beneke (cf. A. Lange, History of Materialism, IL). In a similar relation stood the so-called Monism which E. Haeckel (born 1814 ; Natürliche Schöpfungsgeschichte, 1868 ; Welträlhsel, nth ed. 1900 : cf. Loots, Anti-Haeckel, 1900, and Fr. Paulsen, E. ' H. als Philosoph. Preuss. Jahrl*. 1900) has attempted to develop, and finally the socialistic Philosophy of His tory, whose founders are Fr. Engels (Ludwig Feuerbach und der Ausgang der klassischen deutschen Philosophie, 1888 ; Der Ursprung der Familie, des Pri- vateigenthums und des Staates, 1884) and Karl Marx (Das Kapital, 1867 ff. . Capital, 1801); cf. on Engels and Marx, R. Stammler, Wirthschaft und Hecht, 1896 ; L. Wolfmann, Der historische Materialistnus, 1900.
By far the most important among the epigones of the German Philosophy was Rudolph Herrn. Lotze (1817-1881 ; Metaphysik, 1841 ; Logik, 1842 ; Medi- cinische Psychologie, 1842; Mikrokosmus, 1856 ff. ; System der Philosophie. 1. Logik, 1874 ; IL Metaphysik, 1870) [Microcosmus, tr. by Hamilton and Jones, Edin. and N. Y. 1885 ; Logic and Metaphysics, 2 vols, each, tr. ed. by B. ßosan- quet, Oxford, 1884, also 1888 ; Outlines, ed. by G. T. Ladd, Boston, 1886 ff. ). Cf. O. Caspari, H. L. in seiner Stellung zur deutschen Philosophie (188;? ); E. v. Hartmann, L. 's Philosophie (Berlin, 1888); H. Jones, Phüos. of /. . , 189i
Interesting side phenomena are : G. T. Fechner (1801-1887 ; Nanna, 1848; Physical, und philos. Atomenlehre, 1865; Elemente der Psychophysik, 1860; Drei Motive des Glaubens, 1868 ; Vorschule der Ästhetik, 1876 ; Die Tagesan sicht gegenüber der Nachtansicht, 1879) and Eug. Dühring (born 1833 ; Natür liche Dialektik, 1865 ; Werth des Lebens, 1866 ; Logik und Wissenschafistheorie
Philosophy of the Nineteenth Century. 688
IP'S). — The following from the Catholic aide have taken part in the develop ment of philosophy : Fr. Hermea (1775-1831 ; Einleitung in die christkatho-
lische Theologie, 1819), Beruli. Bolaano (1781-1848;
1837), Anton GUnther (1785-1803; Ges. Schriften, Vienna, 1881), and Wil-
helm Roaenkrants (1824-1874 ; Wissenschaft des Wi*»en», 1860).
I'hiloaophic interest in Germany, which was much crippled about the middle of the century, has strongly revived, owing to the union of the study of Kant with the demands of natural science. The former, called forth by Kuno Fischer's work (1800). evoked a movement which has been characterized in various aspects a. « Neo-Kantianlam. To it belong, as principal members, A. Lange (1828- 1876; History of Materialism, 1800) and (). Liebmann (born 1840; Analyst* der Wirklichkeil, 3 Aufl. , 1900). In theology it was represented by Alb. Hitachi ( Theologie und Metaphysik, 1881). [A. T. Swing, Theol. of A. S. 1901. ]
Theoretical Physics became significant for philosophy through the work prin cipally of Rob. Mayer (Bemerkungen liber die Krafte der unbelebten Natur, 1845 ; Ueber das mtchanische ^Equivalent der Warme, 1850 ; cf. on him A.
Riehl in the Sigvsart-Abhandlungen, 1900) and H. Helmholts (Physiologische Optik, 1886 ; Sensations of Tone, 1876 ; Thatsaehen der Wahrnehmung, 1879). Beginning with physiology, Willhelm Wundt (born 1837) has developed a
comprehensive system of philosophy. From his numerous writings may be men tioned Orundziige der physiologischen Psychologic, 1878 f„ 4th ed. 1893 [Outlines of Physiological Psychology, Eng. tr. in prep, by E. Titcnenor] ; Logii, 18801.
