Description:Excerpt from Thought, Existence and Reality as Viewed by F. H. Bradley and Bernard Bosanquet: A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Mr. Bradley, on the other hand, while not so explicit as to the compre hensiveness Of thought, nevertheless is in general agreement with Prof. Bosanquet. He makes a reservation, however, in favor Of feeling. 1 In his Essays Mr. Bradley tells us, N ow, if by consciousness we understand the being of an Object for a subject, this assumption, I should say, is at least disputable. To my mind consciousness is not coextensive with experi ence: Mr. Bradley proceeds in this chapter on Consciousness and Experience to discuss consciousness, except in the case of feeling, as relational in form. Feeling, he holds, is immediate experience without distinction or relation in itself. It is a unity, complex but without rela tions. And there is no difference between the state and its content, since, in a word, the experienced and the experience are one.3 Prof. Bosanquet makes a similar reservation for feeling, which, as he says, has its own form Of reality, but is not relational, ' but when in his later work The Principle of Individuality and Value he asserts that thought is the life of feeling (p. 63 and p. He seems to include it under thought. Mr. Bradley and Prof. Bosanquet agree in the view that consciousness is not the original genetic form of human experience. An undifferentiated mass Of feeling appears first and this is regarded as a state as yet without either an Object or For Prof. Bosanquet this primal form of experience seems to be only an hypothesis and of no further consequence in his sys tem. Mr. Bradley, however, while granting that thought is present in sensation, sense-perception, will6 and imagination, 7 reserves for 'feeling' a place below the relational form Of thought. The special significance of this doctrine for knowledge and reality will be pointed out later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
