The Writings of Charles De Koninck, volumes 1 and 2, present the
first English editions of collected works of the Catholic Thomist
philosopher Charles De Koninck (1906–1965). Ralph McInerny
(1929–2010) was the project editor and prepared the excellent
translations. Volume 1 contains writings ranging from De
Koninck’s 1934 dissertation at the University of Louvain on the
philosophy of Sir Arthur Eddington, to two remarkable early essays
on indeterminism and the unpublished book The Cosmos. The short
essay “Are the Experimental Sciences Distinct from the Philosophy
of Nature?” demonstrates for the first time De Koninck’s
distinctive view on the relation between philosophy of nature and
the experimental sciences. Volume 1 also includes a comprehensive
introductory essay by Leslie Armour outlining the structure and
themes of De Koninck's philosophy, and a biographical essay by De
Koninck’s son, Thomas.
