F. Merzkirch) 363 Bibliography of Works Cited by Ernst Mach in Knowledge and Error 376 Index of Names 388 ERNST MACH'S KNOWLEDGE AND ERROR Introduction by Erwin N. Hiebert The clearest and most comprehensive statement of Mach's mature scientific epistemology is given in the compilation of twenty-five essays that he published in 1905 under the title: Erkenntnis und Irrtum. Skizzen zur Psychologie der Forschung. These essays were drawn, as Mach tells us, from his winter semester lecture course delivered in 1895/6 in Vienna and entitled Psychologie und Logik der Forschung. Translated, at least in part, into French (1908), Russian (1909) and Turkish (1935), it seems puzzling, to say the least, to see that the crowning work of Mach's philosophical deliberations - Knowledge and Error - should have waited seventy years to appear in English.! This delay is all the more surprising in view of the attention given to Mach's works by English scholars since at least the 1890's. The incentive for Mach's wide and sustained readership in the English-speaking world is, of course, closely related to the efforts of Paul Carus, editor of the Open Court Publ. Co. of LaSalle, Illinois. Mach's Die Principien der physikalischen Optik was dedicated to Carus posthumously in 1921. By 1926 all of Mach's important monographs had been brought out in English by Open Court with the exception of Wiirmelehre and Erkenntnis und Irrtum. The first American edition of Mach's Mechanics, for example, was published in 1890, and the sixth, with a new introduction, in 1960. With the publication of the present volume, and the Wiirmelehre (now in process of being translated), all of Mach's major treatises, finally, will be available in English. It may not be inappropriate to mention that this would have pleased Mach enormously. He was an outspoken Anglophile and attached himself to the empirical tradition of Berkeley, Hume and Mill. He cham­ pioned the approach to physics of Faraday and Maxwell. Among the staunchest of allies for his epistemological views, Mach included econo­ mist-logician W. S. Jevons, the mathematician-physicist-philosophers W. K. Clifford, P. E. B. Jourdain, and Karl Pearson. To Pearson he dedicated the third edition of Die Analyse der Empfindungen (1902). On the Continent Mach's favorite philosopher-scientists were Kirchhoff, Helmholtz, Hertz, Duhem and Poincare. XII INTRODUCTION Erkenntnis und Irrtum. Skizzen zur Psychologie der Forschung. Von E. MACH Emer. Professor an der Unlversltlt Wlen. LEIPZIG Verlag von Johann Ambrosius Barth 1905. INTRODUCTION XIII On a number of occasions Mach expressed the sentiment, especially in his correspondence, that America was the land of intellectual freedom and opportunity, the coming frontier for a new radical empiricism that would help to wash metaphysics out of philosophy. In 1901 he sponsored the German edition of Concepts and Theories of Modern Physics (1881) by J. B. Stallo, Cincinnati lawyer and philosopher.2 Mach warmly endorsed Stallo's book because his scientific aims so closely approximated his own, and because Stallo rejected the latent metaphysical elements and concealed ontological assumptions of the mechanical-atomistic inter­ pretation of the world. The second edition of Wiirmelehre was dedicated to Stallo in 1900. The fourth edition of Populiir-wissenschaftliche Vorlesungen (1910), containing seven new essays, was dedicated to Harvard Professor of physiology, philosophY, and psychology, William James. Mach had a strong intellectual affinity for James' pragmatism because, like himself, he recognized that James had come to radically empirical views from science. Both men took pure pre-conceptualized experience, from which the mental and physical predicates of experience are composed, to be neutral rather than real, unreal, objective or subjective. Mach was so taken with James that he thanked him for giving him his first understanding of Hegel. James was so impressed with his visit with Mach in Prague in 1882 that he wrote his wife: As for Prague, veni, vidi, vici. I went there with much trepidation to do my social­ scientific duty .... I heard Hering give a very poor physiology lecture, and Mach a beautiful physical one ...• Mach came to my hotel and I spent four hours walking and supping with him at his club, an unforgettable conversation. I don't think anyone ever gave me so strong an impression of pure intellectual genius. He apparently has read everything and thought about everything, and has an absolute simplicity of manner and winningness of smile ... 8 In a letter to Carl Stumpf at the same time, James wrote: [In Berlin] Helmholtz ... gave me the very worst lecture I ever heard in my life except one (that one was by our most distinguished American mathematician). The lecture I heard in Prague from Mach was on the same elementary subject as Helmholtz's, and one of the most artistic lectures I ever heard .... Oberhaupr I must say that the hospi­ tality of Prague towards wandering philosophers much surpasses that of Berlin and Leipzig.4 Stumpf thought Mach's "positivistic theory of knowledge ... impossible and unfruitful".5 XIV INTRODUCTION BibliotheqLle de PiJilosopiJie scientifique ERNST MACH "nU.·E~:::''':t:r. .\ L'LJNI\,KIISITi: Ot: Vn;NNE LA Connaissance et l'Erreur 'l'RADUl'f StiR LA DERNIERE f.:DI'l'ION ALLEUANDE PAR ]e D" MARCEL DUFOUR l'non;sSEun ACnEGK ~ I..\ F.\r.lU'; II ..

INTRODUCTION xv The circumstances that led to Mach's Knowledge and Error are signifi­ cant for an understanding of the dual historical and philosophical focus and implications of the work. Its completion, as a synthesis of epistemolo­ gical and methodological inquiries, was coupled with Mach's decision to begin a new chapter in his professional career when the opportunity presented itself. In 1895 Mach was invited to accept the third chair in philosophy at the University of Vienna.

  • Gestalt Psychology and the Anti-Metaphysical Project of the Aufbau
    Science and Experience/ Science of Experience: Gestalt Psychology and the Anti-Metaphysical Project of the Aufbau Uljana Feest Technische Universität Berlin This paper investigates the way in which Rudolf Carnap drew on Gestalt psychological notions when deªning the basic elements of his constitutional system. I argue that while Carnap’s conceptualization of basic experience was compatible with ideas articulated by members of the Berlin/Frankfurt school of Gestalt psychology, his formal analysis of the relationship between two ba- sic experiences (“recollection of similarity”) was not. This is consistent, given that Carnap’s aim was to provide a uniªed reconstruction of scientiªc knowl- edge, as opposed to the mental processes by which we gain knowledge about the world. It is this last point that put him in marked contrast to some of the older epistemological literature, which he cited when pointing to the complex character of basic experience. While this literature had the explicit goal of overcoming metaphysical presuppositions by means of an analysis of conscious- ness, Carnap viewed these attempts as still carrying metaphysical baggage. By choosing the autopsychological basis, he expressed his intellectual depth to their antimetaphysical impetus. By insisting on the metaphysical neutrality of his system, he emphasized that he was carrying out a project in which they had not succeeded. 1. Introduction In his 1928 book, Der Logische Aufbau der Welt, Rudolf Carnap presented what he called a “constructional system” (Carnap 1967). The aim of this system was to demonstrate that all of our scientiªc concepts are logically derivable from more “basic” concepts in a hierarchical fashion.

Damian Caluori, Reason and Necessity: the Descent of the Philosopher-Kings Reason and Necessity: the Descent of the Philosopher-Kings One of the reasons why one might find it worthwhile to study philosophers of late antiquity is the fact that they often have illuminating things to say about Plato and Aristotle. Plotinus, in particular, was a diligent and insightful reader of those great masters. Michael Frede was certainly of that view, and when he wrote that ”[o]ne can learn much more from Plotinus about Aristotle than from most modern accounts of the Stagirite”, he would not have objected, I presume, to the claim that Plotinus is also extremely helpful for the study of Plato.1 In this spirit I wish to discuss a problem that has occupied modern Plato scholars for a long time and I will present a Plotinian answer to that problem. The problem concerns the descent of the philosopher kings in Plato’s Republic.

  • Early Modern Women Philosophers and the History of Philosophy
    Early Modern Women Philosophers and the History of Philosophy EILEEN O’NEILL It has now been more than a dozen years since the Eastern Division of the APA invited me to give an address on what was then a rather innovative topic: the published contributions of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century women to philosophy.1 In that address, I highlighted the work of some sixty early modern women. I then said to the audience, “Why have I presented this somewhat interesting, but nonetheless exhausting . overview of seventeenth- and eigh- teenth-century women philosophers? Quite simply, to overwhelm you with the presence of women in early modern philosophy. It is only in this way that the problem of women’s virtually complete absence in contemporary histories of philosophy becomes pressing, mind-boggling, possibly scandalous.” My presen- tation had attempted to indicate the quantity and scope of women’s published philosophical writing. It had also suggested that an acknowledgment of their contributions was evidenced by the representation of their work in the scholarly journals of the period and by the numerous editions and translations of their texts that continued to appear into the nineteenth century. But what about the status of these women in the histories of philosophy? Had they ever been well represented within the histories written before the twentieth century? In the second part of my address, I noted that in the seventeenth century Gilles Menages, Jean de La Forge, and Marguerite Buffet produced doxogra- phies of women philosophers, and that one of the most widely read histories of philosophy, that by Thomas Stanley, contained a discussion of twenty-four women philosophers of the ancient world.

  • Animal Thoughts on Factory Farms: Michael Leahy, Language and Awareness of Death
    BETWEEN THE SPECIES Issue VIII August 2008 www.cla.calpoly.edu/bts/ Animal Thoughts on Factory Farms: Michael Leahy, Language and Awareness of Death Rebekah Humphreys Email: [email protected] Cardiff University of Wales, Cardiff, United Kingdom Abstract The idea that language is necessary for thought and emotion is a dominant one in philosophy. Animals have taken the brunt of this idea, since it is widely held that language is exclusively human. Michael Leahy (1991) makes a case against the moral standing of factory-farmed animals based on such ideas. His approach is Wittgensteinian: understanding is a thought process that requires language, which animals do not possess. But he goes further than this and argues that certain factory farming methods do not cause certain sufferings to the animals used, since animals lack full awareness of their circumstances. In particular he argues that animals do not experience certain sufferings at the slaughterhouse since, lacking language, they are unaware of their fate (1991). Through an analysis of Leahy’s claims this paper aims to explore and challenge both the idea that thought and emotion require language and that only humans possess language. Between the Species, VIII, August 2008, cla.calpoly.edu/bts/ 1 Awareness of Death While the evidence of animal suffering in factory farming is extensive and it is generally held that animals are sentient, some philosophers, such as Michael Leahy (1991), claim that animals either do not suffer through certain factory farming methods and conditions or that the practice poses no moral issues, or both. In light of the evidence of animal suffering and sentience, on what basis are such claims made? Leahy argues that animals do not experience certain sufferings on the way to the slaughterhouse, and also do not experience certain sufferings when, at the slaughterhouse, animals are killed in full view of other animals.

' -FOUR- The Philosopher-Prophet in Avicenna~s Political Philosophy James W. Morris With time, human beings tend to take miracles for granted. Perhaps the most lasting and public of all miracles, those to which Islamic philosophers devoted so much of their reflections, were the political achievements of the prophets: how otherwise obscure figures like Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad came to shape the thoughts and actions of so much of civilized humanity. Within the high culture of Islamic civilization, the thought and writings of an itinerant Persian doctor and court administrator we know as Avicenna (370/980~28/1037) came to play a similarly central role: for almost a millenium, each of the tra­ ditions of Islamic thought claiming a wider, universal human validity has appealed either directly to his works or to logical and metaphysical disciplines whose Islamic forms were directly grounded in them. This study considers some of the central philosophic under­ pinnings of that achievement.

Lofty aspirations which, although never quite admitted as such, are kept hidden under what philosophy has always, or almost always, considered as its principal duty: namely, the supersession (read, incorporation or substitution1) of religion by one or the other speculative systems. This, in fact, was an accusation brought against philosophy (and philosophers) by none other than Nietzsche who, in his work appropriately named Twilight of the Idols, writes: All that philosophers have handled for thousands of years have been concept-mummies [Begriffs-Mumien]; nothing real escaped their grasp alive.

Plekhanov Halaman 2 I This book is apparently destined to have conspicuous success among certain circles of our reading public. First, it provides an exposition of a philosophy now fashionable in these circles. According to J Petzoldt, the aim of the book is ... to explain the usually falsely construed central point of the positivist understanding of the world, substantiated by Wilhelm Schuppe, Ernst Mach and Richard Avenarius, [1] and to comprehend this world-outlook as historically necessary, logically inevitable and therefore, most probably, final in its essential features. (p vi) That will suffice at present to attract the attention of numerous readers to the work concerned; and apart from this, Petzoldt knows how to write with great clarity. True, it is not that scrupulous clarity which helps one to overcome the difficulties of the subject, but that deceptive clarity which tends to conceal them from the reader.
