incomprehensible。 How does thought overcome the difficulties which itself has begotten�拭�Here
with Locke none at all have been begotten and awakened。 Before the need for reconciliation can
be satisfied�察�the pain of disunion must be excited。
The philosophy of Locke is certainly very comprehensible�察�but for that very reason it is likewise a
popular philosophy to which the whole of the English philosophy as it exists at this day is allied�察�it
is the thinking method of regarding things which is called philosophy carried to its perfection�察�the
form which was introduced into the science which then took its rise in Europe。 This is an important
moment in culture�察�the sciences in general and specially the empiric sciences have to ascribe their
origin to this movement。 To the English�察�Philosophy has ever signified the deduction of experiences
from observations�察�this has in a one´sided way been applied to physical and economic subjects。
General principles of political economy such as free´trade in the present day�察�and all matters which
rest on thinking experience�察�the knowledge of whatever reveals itself in this sphere as necessary
and useful�察�signifies philosophy to the English ��Vol。 I。 pp。 57�察�58��。 The scholastic method of
starting from principles and definitions has been rejected。 The universal�察�laws�察�forces�察�universal
matter�察�etc。�察�have in natural science been derived from perceptions�察�thus to the English�察�Newton is
held to be the philosopher par excellence。 The other side is that in practical philosophy regarding
society or the state�察�thought applies itself to concrete objects such as the will of the prince��
subjects and their ends and personal welfare。 Inasmuch as we have an object such as that before
us�察�the indwelling and essential universal is made evident�察�it must�察�however�察�be made clear which
conception is the one to which the others must yield。 It is in this way that rational politics took their
rise in England�察�because the institutions and government peculiar to the English led them specially
and in the first place to reflection upon their inward political and economic relationships。 Hobbes
must be mentioned as an exemplification of this fact。 This manner of reasoning starts from the
present mind�察�from what is our own�察�whether it be within or without us�察�since the feelings which we
have�察�the experiences which fall directly within us�察�are the principles。 This philosophy of reasoning
thought is that which has now become universal�察�and through which the whole revolution in the
position taken up by mind has come to pass。

Section Two�此�Period of the Thinking Understanding
Chapter I。 ! The Metaphysics of the Understanding
B 2。 HUGO GROTIUS。
Hugo Grotius was studying the laws of nations at the same time as Locke�察�and in him the very
same methods may be found as those already mentioned�察�inasmuch as he also falls into a quite
empirical system of associating nations with one another�察�combining with that an empirical mode of
reasoning。 Hugo van Groot�察�born 1583 at Delft�察�was a lawyer�察�fiscal general�察�and council
pensionary�察�in 1619�察�however�察�he was implicated in the Barneveldt trial�察�and was compelled to fly
the country。 For a long time he remained in France�察�but in 1634 he entered the service of Queen
Christina of Sweden。 In 1635 he was made Swedish ambassador in Paris�察�and in 1645 he died at
Rostock�察�while on a journey from Stockholm to Holland。��1�� His principal work�察�De jure belli et
pacis�察�he composed in 1625�察�now it is not read�察�but at one time it exercised a very great and
important influence。 In it Grotius presented a comparative historical account�察�the material of which
was partly derived from the Old Testament�察�of the manner in which nations in the various
relationships of war and peace have acted towards one another�察�and what usages they held to be
binding。 The following may serve as an example of his empirical method of reasoning�此�Prisoners
ought not to be killed�察�for the object is to disarm the enemy�察�and if this end be attained nothing
further should be done。��2�� This empirical way of connecting facts had the effect of bringing general
comprehensible and rational principles into consciousness�察�of making them recognized�察�and of
causing them to be more or less acceptable。 Thus we see principles set forth�察�respecting the
righteousness of a king's power for instance�察�for thought applied itself to everything。 We are
unsatisfied by such proofs and deductions�察�but we must not overlook what is thereby
accomplished�察�and this is the establishment of principles which have their ultimate confirmation in
the objects themselves�察�in mind and thought。
B 3。 THOMAS HOBBES。
a。 Hobbes�察�who was celebrated and distinguished on account of the originality of his views�察�was
tutor to the Earl of Devonshire�察�he was born in 1588 at Malmesbury�察�and died in 1679。��3�� As a
contemporary of Cromwell�察�he found in the events of that time�察�in the Revolution which then took
place in England�察�an occasion for reflecting on the principles of state and law�察�and in fact he
succeeded in making his way to quite original conceptions。 He wrote much�察�including a treatise on
Philosophy�察�entitled ^The Elements of Philosophy。 ̄ The first section ��Sectio�� of this work�察�De
corpore�察�appeared in London in 1655�察�in it he first of all treats of Logic ��Pars I。���察�and secondly of
philosophia prima ��Pars III。���察�this last is an ontology and metaphysic。 The next subdivision ��Pars
III。���察 �On the relation between motion and magnitude�察院�is a system of mechanism�察�a quite popular
system of physics�察�and a study of the human organs。 The second section was to treat of the nature
of man ��De homine���察�and the third of the state ��De cive���察�but the intellectual sections of the work
Hobbes did not entirely finish。 He says in his preface that Copernicus first opened up astronomy��
and Galileo physics�察�before them there was nothing certain in either science。 Harvey worked out
the science of the human body�察�and physics generally as well as astronomy were perfected by
Keppler。 All this was termed Philosophy�察�in accordance with the point of view which has been
already given ��p。 313���察�since in it the reflective understanding desires to know the universal。
Hobbes further says concerning the philosophy of the state ��philosophia civilis���察�that it only dates
from the publication of his book De cive。��4�� This work�察�which appeared at Paris in 1642�撮�5�� is��
like his Leviathan�察�a much decried book�察�the second mentioned writing was forbidden to be
circulated�察�and is hence very rare。 Both works contain sounder reflections on the nature of society
and government than many now in circulation。 Society�察�the state�察�is to Hobbes absolutely
preeminent�察�it is the determining power without appeal as regards law and positive religion and
their external relations�察�and because he placed these in subjection to the state�察�his doctrines were
of course regarded with the utmost horror。 But there is nothing speculative or really philosophic in
them�察�and there is still less in Hugo Grotius。
Before this ideals were set before us�察�or Holy Scripture or positive law was quoted as
authoritative。 Hobbes�察�on the contrary�察�sought to derive the bond which holds the state together��
that which gives the state its power�察�from principles which lie within us�察�which we recognize as our
own。 In this way two opposite principles arise。 The first is the passive obedience of subjects�察�the
divine authority of rulers�察�whose will is absolute law�察�and is itself elevated above all other law。 All
this is represented in close connection with religion�察�and proved by examples from the Old
Testament�察�by such stories as those of Saul and David。 Criminal and marriage laws�察�too�察�for long
derived their character from the Mosaic laws�察�or�察�speaking generally�察�from those the provisions of
which possessed their value by the fact of being established by express divine command。 On the
other hand we have in the second place the reasoning wherein we ourselves are the determining
agents�察�and which was called sound reason。 In the movement which Cromwell made use of there
was allied with this a fanaticism�察�which from the written letter drew opposite conclusions to the
above�察�and this we see exemplified in the equality of property�察�for instance。 Hobbes�察�it is true��
likewise maintained passive obedience�察�the absolute freedom of the royal will and power�察�but at
the same time he sought to derive the principles of monarchical power�察�etc。�察�from universal
determinations。 The views that he adopts are shallow and empirical�察�but the reasons he gives for
them�察�and the propositions he makes respecting them�察�are original in character�察�inasmuch as they
are derived from natural necessities and wants。
Hobbes maintained that ^The origin of all society is to be found in the mutual fear of all its
members�察院�it is hence a phenomenon in consciousness。 ^Each association is thus formed in its
own interest or for its own renown�察�that is�察�from selfish motives。 ̄ All such matters as security of
life�察�property�察�and enjoyment�察�are not to be found outside it。 ^But men have in all dissimilarity of
strength a natural similarity as well。 ̄ This Hobbes proves by a characteristic reason�察�viz。 that
^each individual can make away with the other�察院�each is the ultimate power over the others。
^Each can be supreme。 ̄��6�� Thus their similarity is not derived from the greatest strength�察�it is not��
as in modern times�察�founded on the freedom of the spirit�察�or on an equality of merit and
independence�察�but on the equal weakness of mankind�察�each man is weak as regards others。
b。 Hobbes further takes up the position that this natural condition is of such a nature that all
possess the desire to rule over one another。 ^All in t
