This book tells the story of idealism in modern philosophy, from
the seventeenth century to the turn of the twenty-first. Paul Guyer
and Rolf-Peter Horstmann define idealism as the reduction of all
reality to something mental in nature. Rather than distinguishing
between metaphysical and epistemological versions of idealism, they
distinguish between metaphysical and epistemological motivations
for idealism. They argue that while metaphysical arguments for
idealism have only rarely been accepted, for example by Bishop
Berkeley in the early eighteenth century and the British idealists
Bradley and McTaggart in the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries, epistemological arguments for idealism have been widely
accepted, even in the so-called analytic philosophy of the
twentieth century. Guyer and Horstmann discuss many philosophers
who have played a role in the development of idealism, from
Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Locke, Berkeley, and Hume,
through Kant; the German idealists Fichte, Schelling, and Hegel;
Schopenhauer and Nietzsche; the British and American idealists such
as Green and Royce in addition to Bradley and McTaggart; G.E. Moore
and Bertrand Russell, Neo-Kantians such as Ernst Cassirer; and
twentieth-century philosophers such as Wittgenstein, Collingwood,
Carnap, Sellars, and McDowell.
