Synopsis
Excerpt from An Essay on the Nature and Objects of the Course of Study in the Class of the Philosophy of the Human Mind and Logic, in the University of London
It is the design of the following pages to explain, generally and in brief, the nature of those studies to which the attention of the Students will be directed in the Class of Mental Philosophy and Logic; and to point out some of the practical advantages which must result from these pursuits, if rightly conducted, as a prominent and essential branch of an enlightened and liberal education.
In the boundless field of knowledge which lies open to human research, there are some objects which are evidently adapted to gain more immediate attention than others, either by the direct appeal they make to the senses, or their obvious connexion with the necessities of mankind. It is with the world itself, intellectually considered, as with the infant: the latter is chiefly the creature of sensation, and time must elapse ere the enlargement of its experience has brought into exercise faculties of a different and more exquisite order. Antiquity was the infancy of the world; and it was natural that the sensible properties of things should first attract notice, and become the elements of the first rude attempts in science.
