Synopsis
Excerpt from The Principles of Knowledge, Vol. 1: With Remarks on the Nature of Reality
All knowledge is in and by the modes of the mind. The facts of the individual's consciousness form the beginning and basis of all knowledge. Things are known, therefore, only as we are capable of knowing them, or according to the grasp and nature of the faculties of our mind; and there is no ground for affirming the existence of anything which is not revealed immediately in the mental modes, or mediately by them, through their correspondence to or representation of it.
The science of knowledge has for its great aim to discuss the origin, extent, and certainty of human knowledge. It considers the basis and beginning of knowledge; the nature and extent of immediate knowledge; the nature and extent of mediate knowledge; every cognitive movement, in its origin and reach, in its correctness and worth, from the basis of knowledge, by way of perception, imagination, inference, surmise, belief, and by every other mode of procedure, if there be others; in short, it seeks to explain the whole structure of knowledge, as to its origin, its progressive formation, its trustworthiness in each step and part.
The important relation between knowledge or thought and being implies a corresponding relation between the science of thought and the science of being.

The Principles of Knowledge, Vol. 1: With Remarks on the Nature of Reality
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of the nature of knowledge, delving into the intricate ways in which the human mind comes to understand the world around it. The author examines the fundamental questions of how we know what we know, tracing the origins of knowledge from the immediate experience of our own thoughts and feelings to the more complex process of reasoning and understanding external realities. The book takes a deep dive into the nature of consciousness, memory, and perception, ultimately aiming to shed light on the true nature of human knowledge. The author's approach draws heavily on the philosophical traditions of Locke, Kant, and Berkeley, analyzing their contributions to the ongoing debate between monism and dualism. While recognizing the importance of the mind's role in shaping our understanding, the book challenges the extreme views of both monism and idealism, ultimately arguing for a more balanced understanding of the relationship between mind and the external world. By thoughtfully exploring these fundamental questions, the book provides valuable insights into the intricacies of human thought, reminding us of the profound power and complexity of the human mind.
