Riassunto

Excerpt from Essays in Experimental Logic

Specially engaged (in, and hence unconsciously or intentionally to project its traits into experiences to which they are alien. Unless he takes the simple precaution of holding before his mind contrasting experiences like those just mentioned, be generally forms a habit of supposing that no qualities or things I at all are present in experience except as objects of some kind of apprehension or awareness. Over looking, and afterward denying, that things and qualities are present to most men most of the time as things and qualities in situations of prizing and aversion, of seeking and finding, of converse, enjoy ment and suffering, of production and employment, of manipulation and destruction, he thinks of things as either totally absent from experience or else there as objects of consciousness or knowing. This habit is a tribute to the importance of reflec tion and of the knowledge which accrues from it. But a discussion of knowledge perverted at the outset by such a misconception is not likely to proceed prosperously.
