The classical work on what I have called the modern idealist doctrine (I have avoided the word intellectualist) is Mr. F. H. Bradley's _Appearance and Reality_. I have attempted to give the main lines of the theory in my chapter on "The Absolute." Although it is a book for advanced students, it is not a closed volume even to the uninstructed. The brilliant dialectical skill of the {92} author is acknowledged and may be enjoyed by those who reject or may fail to understand his conclusion. Mr. Harold H. Joachim's _The Nature of Truth_ (Oxford, Clarendon Press) is a most able and scholarly argument for the coherence theory of truth. The principal expositions of Pragmatism are the works of William James and of Dr. F. C. S. Schiller. William James' _The Will to Believe_ was the first distinct formulation of the principle. _Pragmatism, a New Name for some Old Ways of Thinking_, is the fullest and most systematic statement of the doctrine. _The Meaning of Truth_ is a defence of the doctrine against the criticism that had been meted out to it unsparingly. All three books are published by Longmans. Dr. F. C. S. Schiller is uncompromising in his advocacy of a complete return to the doctrine taught in the ancient world by Protagoras. He has defended that philosopher against the arguments of Plato in a polemical pamphlet entitled _Plato or Protagoras?_ (Oxford, Blackwell). An Essay on "Axioms as Postulates" in _Personal Idealism_ (Macmillan & Co.), and two volumes of collected essays on _Humanism_ (Macmillan & Co.), set forth the doctrine, which he prefers to call Humanism, with great force, abundant illustration, and the relief of no small amount of humour. For an account of the theories of Bergson, I may mention my own little book in this series, _Henri Bergson: The Philosophy of Change_. M. Bergson's books are _Time and Freewill_, _Matter and Memory_, and _Creative Evolution_. To these has been recently added _An Introduction to Metaphysics_ (Macmillan, 1912). It is the republication in English of an article written in 1903, which has been for a long time out of print. It is a short and clear statement of the doctrine of Intuition. {93} The important studies of Professor G. F. Stout are not easily accessible to the general reader, as they consist in contributions to philosophical journals and proceedings of learned societies. The essay referred to in the last chapter, "Some Fundamental Points in the Theory of Knowledge," is in the _St. Andrews Quincentenary Publications_, 1911 (Maclehose). I may mention also his essay on "Error" in _Personal Idealism_, noticed above, and "The Object of Thought and Real Being," in _Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society_, 1911. {94} INDEX NDX Bergson, Mons.
