The axiological idealism of Georges Bastide, which is itself an
attempt to come to grips with basic philosophical problems in a
form wholly in accord with the preoccupations of our times, offered
a unique opportunity for coming into contact with two new horizons
- critical idealism and axiological personalism. An examination of
the intimate relationship between these two viewpoints promised to
be of special interest and worthy of research. A similar theme is
encountered in the philosophy of R. Le Senne and a number of works
have been devoted to the study of his philosophy. However, in
Bastide's axiological idealism the emphasis is on the relationship
between the problem of spiritual conversion and the problem of the
transfiguration of values and, as far as I know, no major study has
been made of Bastide's philosophy. This study also opened up the
possibility of a deeper understanding of the philosophies of
Descartes and Kant, as well as the philosophies of Brunsch vicg and
Bergson. Bastide's philosophy offers new possibilities for
reflection on the past in the light of contemporary problems, just
as his own work can be understood only in the light of the
philosophies which are the chief inspi ration for his axiological
idealism. In this regard we have devoted three chapters of
historical background in order to introduce the main influences on
Bastide's philosophy."
