The Problem of Truth

Autor

Herbert Wildon Carr (1857-1931) was a significant British philosopher and educator, remembered primarily for his work in the realm of metaphysics and his role in promoting a reconciliatory philosophy that bridged the gap between British empiricism and continental idealism. A contemporary of British and American idealists, Carr's intellectual rigor has been evident through his extensive scholarly contributions, prominently featured in his examinations of truth and knowledge. His seminal work, 'The Problem of Truth' (1913), underscores his commitment to understanding the evolution of truth as a philosophical concept and stands as a testament to his larger philosophical project. Carr's approach to metaphysics was profoundly influenced by his interaction with the works of Henri Bergson, whose vitalism and intuitionism he robustly defended. He held the position of professor of philosophy at the University of London, where he helped articulate and propagate his intermediate philosophy. Carr's scholarly impact, albeit not as widely recognized in the pantheon of British philosophers, continues to be appreciated by those who delve into the history of philosophical thought. Carr's literary style, marked by clarity and precision, has facilitated the accessibility of complex philosophical ideas to a broader audience, making his contributions invaluable to the ongoing discourse in metaphysics and epistemology.
