Produced by Marc D'Hooghe (Images generously made available by the Hathi Trust.) "Philosophical Studies" by G. E. Moore is a philosophical work written in the early 20th century. The book is a collection of essays exploring various principles of philosophy, particularly focusing on topics such as Idealism, perception, and the nature of reality. It critically examines prominent philosophical arguments, making it an insightful read for those interested in abstract thought and the foundations of philosophical inquiry. At the start of the collection, Moore introduces the theme of the refutation of Idealism, asserting that the belief that reality is wholly spiritual is built on a range of arguments that deserve scrutiny. He sets out to challenge the proposition "esse is percipi" (to be is to be perceived), indicating that this claim is central to Idealistic arguments. By rigorously dissecting this assertion, Moore aims to demonstrate its insufficiency to support the broader Idealist conclusion that reality is spiritual, suggesting that much of contemporary philosophy, including Agnosticism and Sensationalism, may rest on this flawed foundation.
