the materials for tragedies to B. Auerbach and Immermann, and for
numerous ballads, of which some remain very popular in Germany (see

HOFFDING, HARALD (1843- ), Danish philosopher, was born and educated in
Copenhagen. He became a schoolmaster, and ultimately in 1883 professor
in the university of Copenhagen. He was much influenced by Soren
Kierkegaard in the early development of his thought, but later became a
positivist, retaining, however, and combining with it the spirit and
method of practical psychology and the critical school. His best-known
work is perhaps his _Den nyere Filosofis Historie_ (1894), translated
into English from the German edition (1895) by B. E. Meyer as _History
of Modern Philosophy_ (2 vols., 1900), a work intended by him to
supplement and correct that of Hans Brochner, to whom it is dedicated.
His _Psychology, the Problems of Philosophy_ (1905) and _Philosophy of
Religion_ (1906) also have appeared in English.
Among Hoffding's other writings, practically all of which have been
translated into German, are: _Den engelske Filosofi i vor Tid_ (1874);
_Etik_ (1876; ed. 1879); _Psychologi i Omrids paa Grundlag of
Erfaring_ (ed. 1892); _Psykologiske Undersogelser_ (1889); _Charles
Darwin_ (1889); _Kontinuiteten i Kants filosofiske Udviklingsgang_
(1893); _Det psykologiske Grundlag for logiske Domme_ (1899);
_Rousseau und seine Philosophie_ (1901); _Mindre Arbejder_ (1899).
