Essays on Truth and Reality is a collection of philosophical essays written by F. H. Bradley, a prominent British philosopher of the late 19th and early 20th century. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the nature of truth and the second part exploring the concept of reality.In the first part, Bradley argues that truth is not a simple correspondence between a statement and reality, but rather a complex relationship between a statement, the mind that makes the statement, and the world that the statement refers to. He also explores the role of coherence and consistency in determining truth, and critiques various theories of truth put forth by other philosophers.In the second part of the book, Bradley delves into the nature of reality, arguing that reality is not a collection of discrete, independent objects, but rather a unified whole that cannot be fully understood through empirical observation alone. He also explores the relationship between appearance and reality, and critiques various theories of reality put forth by other philosophers.Overall, Essays on Truth and Reality is a thought-provoking and challenging work that continues to influence contemporary philosophical debates.1914.
