This third volume in the definitive edition of Dewey's early work
opens with his tribute to George Sylvester Morris, the former
teacher who had brought Dewey to the University of Michigan.
Morris's death in 1889 left vacant the Department of Philosophy
chairmanship and led to Dewey's returning to fill that post after a
year's stay at Minnesota.
Appearing here, among all his writings from 1889 through 1892, are
Dewey's earliest comprehensive statements on logic and his first
book on ethics. Dewey's marked copy of the galley-proof for his
important article "The Present Position of Logical Theory,"
recently discovered among the papers of the Open Court Publishing
Company, is used as the basis for the text, making available for
the first time his final changes and corrections.
The textual studies that make "The Early Works "unique among
American philosophical editions are reported in detail. One of
these, "A Note on "Applied Psychology,""" "documents the fact that
Dewey did not co-author this book frequently attributed to him. Six
brief unsigned articles written in 1891 for a University of
Michigan student publication, the "Inlander,"" "have been
identified as Dewey's and are also included in this volume. In both
style and content, these articles reflect Dewey's conviction that
philosophy should be used as a means of illuminating the
contemporary scene; thus they add a new dimension to present
knowledge of his early writing.
