Description
Beginning with Sir William Hamilton's revitalisation of philosophy in Scotland in the 1830s, Gordon Graham takes up the theme of George Davie's The Democratic Intellect and explores a century of debates surrounding the identity and continuity of the Scottish philosophical tradition.
Graham identifies a host of once-prominent but now neglected thinkers - such as Alexander Bain, J.
F. Ferrier, Thomas Carlyle, Alexander Campbell Fraser, John Tulloch, Henry Jones, Henry Calderwood, David Ritchie and Andrew Seth Pringle-Pattison - whose reactions to Hume and Reid stimulated new currents of ideas.
He concludes by considering the relation between the Scottish philosophical tradition and the 20th-century philosopher John Macmurray.
