This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1890 edition. Excerpt: ... GENERAL METAPHYSICS. Book II. Explanation Of Some Notions Next In Point Of Generality To Transcendental Being. CHAPTER I. Substance And Accident. Synopsis. (A) Introductory remarks. (B) Substance and Accident explained. (1) Definitions of Substance which lead to Pantheism. (2) Destruction of the right notion of substance among English Empiricists. (3) The reality of substance defended, (a) A contrast between substance and accident is matter of clear experience. (6) Substance is defined as what exists per se, and is not inherent in a subject, (c) This is the fundamental idea of substance; substance need not be a hidden substratum really distinct from accidents that manifest themselves, (d) It follows that substance is a reality known beyond all doubt. (4) Accident. Notes and Illustrations. (A) The second part of this work has an aim like that of the first, so far as it takes up some of those perpetually recurrent notions upon which certain writers have managed to throw very dark shadows. Bringing these forward to the open daylight, it tries to show plain men that they can understand them and be sure of their real validity. The opponents whom we shall seek to encounter will be mainly our English Empiricists, because they represent the most natural aberrations of British intellect; whereas other aberrations are of an imported character, being borrowed especially from Hegel. Lest, however, we be accused of hiding away that luminary from the sight of our readers, we will give a summary statement of his doctrine about the ideas with which we are going mainly to deal; and should this summary seem inviting to readers, they will be set on the task of investigating for themselves, with what results we will leave them to find out for themselves....
