pp. 1-36. (Only an instance of Brastberger's distortions of meaning. Kant is said not to have taught that we can assert the real existence of things-in-themselves, because of our practical reason [which would certainly be new, but also wholly false], but only that the practical reason compels us to regard phenomena, as though an intelligible world underlay them.)

(The Introduction and the Aesthetic are taken sentence by sentence. Some not unfounded objections are raised: but they disappear in a flood of misunderstandings of the worst description, and do not themselves rise above the commonplace and the obvious. An annihilating criticism, whose one fault is a too constant and too frequent fidelity to the exact words of the Master, was published by:)

(Against the Kantian Ethic, from the standpoint of the happiness-principle. No new or important thoughts, but many useful counter-arguments. The end of Kant's Rigorism, though it regards us as becoming worthy of happiness through the exercise of virtue, is still Eudaemonism. The source of morality is good-will; the feeling of happiness that is bound up with virtue is the most potent motive to morality. The two concluding essays analyze and criticise the first pages of Kant's Grundlegung.}

(The author finds that the Kantian philosophy leaves the claims of the heart and of the theology of feeling unsatisfied; and accordingly cautions the public against it, as dangerous to religion and morality. On the analogy of Kant's moral proof of the existence of God, it would be possible also to prove the necessity of revelation. Kant's moral principle is
