A Manual of Modern Scholastic Philosophy, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint): Cosmology, Psychology, Epistemology (Criteriology), General Metaphysics (Ontology)

Excerpt from A Manual of Modern Scholastic Philosophy, Vol. 1
The work here offered to the English-speaking public will have a twofold interest.
The one arises from the tragic fate that befell the University of Louvain when the tide of the present ruthless war swept over the plains of Flanders... The halls where courses of Philosophy were delivered are now the wards of a Red Cross Hospital... The professors of the Institute of Philosophy are scattered, and some are in exile... The illustrious founder of the Institute, and author of most of these pages, is the Prelate who now consoles his stricken people, while his name is held in benediction in every corner of Christendom... Had the world but hearkened to the truths proclaimed by such as he and embodied in lives like his, had it but held fast to the Christian Philosophy of Life, well - the twentieth century might have dawned without such a baptism of blood...
The other interest attaches to the subject-matter of the work on its own intrinsic merits. It is an English version of the Louvain Traite elementaire de philosophie.
