Book Overview

""The Principle of Individuality and Value: The Gifford Lectures for 1911"" is a book written by philosopher Bernard Bosanquet and published in 1912. The book is a collection of lectures that Bosanquet delivered at the University of Edinburgh as part of the prestigious Gifford Lectures series. In the book, Bosanquet explores the concept of individuality and its relationship to value. He argues that individuality is not simply a matter of physical or biological characteristics, but also includes psychological and spiritual aspects. He further contends that individuality is intimately connected to value, and that our understanding of what is valuable is shaped by our recognition of individuality.Bosanquet also discusses the role of reason and intuition in our perception of value, and explores the relationship between individuality and social structures such as the state and the family. He argues that these structures must recognize and respect individuality in order to be truly just and effective.Overall, ""The Principle of Individuality and Value"" is a thought-provoking exploration of some of the fundamental concepts of philosophy, and remains a significant work in the field to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
