This Is A New Release Of The Original 1858 Edition.
For some time past we have been asked, on various sides, to collect
in a body of doctrine the theories scattered in our different
works, and to sum up, in just proportions, what men are pleased to
call our philosophy. This resume was wholly made. We had only to
take again the lectures already quite old, but little known,
because they belonged to a time when the courses of the Faculte des
Lettres had scarcely any influence beyond the Quartier Latin, and,
also, because they could be found only in a considerable
collection, comprising all our first instruction, from 1815 to
1821. These lectures were there, as it were, lost in the crowd. We
have drawn them hence, and give them apart, severely corrected, in
the hope that they will thus be accessible to a greater number of
readers, and that their true character will the better appear. The
eighteen lectures that compose this volume have in fact the
particular trait that, if the history of philosophy furnishes their
framework, philosophy itself occupies in them the first place, and
that, instead of researches of erudition and criticism, they
present a regular exposition of the doctrine which was at first
fixed in our mind, which has not ceased to preside over our labors.
This book, then, contains the abridged but exact expression of our
convictions on the fundamental points of philosophic science. In it
will be openly seen the method that is the soul of our enterprise,
our principles, our processes, our results."
