The 19th Century Duel Between Idealism And Naturalism

The 19th Century Duel Between Idealism And Naturalism is a book written by A. Seth Pringle-Pattison. The book explores the philosophical debate that took place in the 19th century between two opposing schools of thought: idealism and naturalism. Idealism is the belief that reality is fundamentally mental or spiritual, while naturalism is the belief that reality is fundamentally physical or material. The author examines the arguments put forth by both sides and discusses the implications of each viewpoint for human understanding of the world and our place in it. The book also delves into the historical context in which this debate took place, including the rise of scientific thinking and the impact of Darwin's theory of evolution. Overall, The 19th Century Duel Between Idealism And Naturalism offers a comprehensive analysis of a crucial period in the development of Western philosophy.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Idea of God in the Light of Recent Philosophy, by A.
