| | IDEALISM - LoveToKnow Article on IDEALISM |
 | | But idealism has insisted from the time of Plato on the distinction between what is actual in time and space and the reality that can only partially be revealed in it. | | | This Plato expressed in the myth of the Sun, but the garment of mythology in which Plato clothed his idealism, beautiful as it is in itself and full of suggestion, covered an essential weakness. | | | Determinism had other forms besides that of a crude materialism, and the direcjion that Malebranche succeeded in giving to speculation led only to the morecomplete denial of freedom and individuality in the all-devouring pantheism of Spinoza. |

| | Metaphysical Idealism |
| | Despite its compatibility with materialism, recursive idealism is a genuine metaphysical idealist theory; it does not back down from the claim that material things literally owe their existence to minds. | | | Idealism claims that matter depends on minds for its existence. | | | Personal idealism denies that there is a single absolute mind behind the world. |

| | Granting the self-imposed temporal constraints of his inquiry, Beiser's aim is not to exclude or marginalize Hegel and deny his significance for German idealism, but rather to rescue the singular originality and grandeur of moments within the history of German Idealism that have fallen into the shadow of the leviathan to which they gave birth. | | | Beiser notes, almost nonchalantly, that "this study of German idealism omits Hegel, and it is indeed a reaction against the Hegelian legacy" because he regards Hegel as "tendentious" and "unoriginal" (claims, of course, that can be made for any well-known historical figure). | | | Rather, it is scholarly inquiry into a phase of German Idealism that, while not altogether neglected, is too often regarded as merely a preparation for Hegel's triumphant system. |

| | The Christian Platonists of Alexandria in the third century were partly responsible for this, but much of the marriage of Platonism with Christianity and the transformation of Plato's objective idealism into theistic idealism belongs to the founder of Neo-Platonism, Plotinus (A.D. third century). | | | Like Marx, Engels felt that our utilization of things leaves no doubt about their materiality and that practice itself provides the proof for materialism (as in Johnson's alleged disproof of Berkeley's idealism by striking a stone with his foot and exclaiming, "I refute it thus"). | | | This perspective largely grew out of Ludwig Feuerbach's naturalistic materialism, which assumed that truth was discoverable only by empirical science and took a realistic view of reality. |

| | Idealism is an ontological view, a view about what sorts of things there are in the universe. | | | He describes his view as "internal realism," where the term "internal" is intended to indicate his rejection of the view he calls "metaphysical realism." Putnam combines internal realism and metaphysical anti-realism in something like the way Kant combined empirical realism and transcendental idealism. | | | Putnam has been defending a version of anti-realism in his writings of the last several years. |

| | in metaphysics, idealism is a term used to describe the sort of theory which claims that something "ideal" or non-physical or non-material or non-extended is the primary reality. | | | Plato can be considered the "Founding Father" of idealism in Western philosophy, since he claimed that what is fundamentally real are ideas, of which physical objects are pale imitations. | | | Just as materialism in metaphysics is often linked with subjectivism in epistemology, idealism is often linked with intrinsicism in epistemology (though epistemological intrinsicism is sometimes also called, confusingly, idealism, since intrinsicism holds that we literally perceive universals or ideas). |

| | Part of the attraction of philosophical idealism to the Greeks was that it permitted them to argue that it was right and proper for there to be a class society and for there to be a small group of people who largely ruled the majority. | | | I think it comes from the way that capitalism has made culture inherently populist, and how the success of empiricism has eroded the position of the elite in every way, and I think that it's also a function of their basic teleological world view. | | | P-idealism is actually a fundamental belief about the nature of the universe, which presumes that feelings and thought are primary, and that physical experience is driven by them. |

| | Hence the alternative to psychic idealism is not materialism or dualism, but agnosticism or positivism. | | | And if, to take the other horn of the dilemma, there is no reference of one thing to another, then the world has no real connectedness, and is no world, no real succession of cause-effect at all. | | | Thus it is analytic that either everything must be as if idealism were true, or else as if there were no world, no real temporal-causal system. |

| | As we have already seen, Hegel's view of the world is determinedly historical; he believed that history itself (involving another triad, of original/reflective/philosophical history) exhibits the growth of self-consciousness in the Absolute, the process of development by means of which the Weltgeist comes to know itself. | | | The study of physics, as an exploration of the necessary operation of the Absolute considered in one way, then, will be perfectly parallel to the science of knowledge that examines the necessary structure of self-conscious awareness that is the Absolute considered in another way. | | | More willing than Fichte to preserve the tension between knower and known, subject and object, ego and non-ego, Schelling attempted an adequate description of their intimate interdependence with each other. |
