tional analysis, as carried out in the whole body of regulative doctrine with which it is connected. His own view of proposition remains devoid of all logical value, till he can show that it is of equal account for regulating the process of judgment or use of prepositional forms, to say nothing of mediate reasoning. He may limit himself most profitably to the grammatical question. Kant's Critique of Practical Reason and other Works on the Theory of Ethics. Translated by THOMAS KIXGSMILL ABBOTT, B.D., Fellow and Tutor of Trinity College, Dublin. Third Edition, revised and enlarged. With Memoir and Portrait. London : Longmans, 1883. Pp. Ixiv., 368. The present edition adds to the contents of the second (enlarged) edi- tion, which appeared in 1879, a translation of the General Introduction to the composite treatise Die Metapliysik der Sittcn (why called in the trans- lator's preface Metaphysische Anfangsgriinde der Sittenlehre ?) and of the Preface and nearly the whole Introduction to its second part (as first pub- lished) the Metaphysische Anfangsgriinde d<r Tugendlehre. Mr. Abbott can now, perhaps, claim with reason to have given " the whole of Kant's works on the General Theory of Ethics," but when he reaches his fourth edition it might still be well to enlarge still farther by the addition of the body of the Tugendlehre, surpassing his predecessor Semple in the rendering of this as much as he has done in the other pieces common to their two attempts to present Kant's ethical doctrine in English ; nor would it be amiss to throw in (with Semple) the Introduction to the Rechtslehre also. A History of Eclecticism in Greek Philosophy. Translated from the German of Dr. E. ZELLER, Professor in the University of Berlin, with the Author's sanction, by S. F. ALLEYNE. London : Longmans, 1883. Pp. viii., 383. Miss Alleyne, who began by translating (with the help of Prof. Good- win) that section of Part II. of Zeller's great work which treats of ' Plato and the Older Academy,' and who afterwards success! ully took up the whole of Part I. dealing with the ' Pre-Socratic Schools,' has now added to her achievement a ren-lering of that section of Part III. which is occu- pied with 'Eclecticism,' after the other section on the ' Stoics, Epicureans, and Sceptics,' already translated by another hand. The publishers again announce, as on the publication of the ' Pre-Socratic Schools' in 1881, that with the long-promised division of Part II. on ' Aristotle and the Elder Peripatetics,' still " in preparation," the English Translation of Zeller's work will be completed ; but, as they have been better than their word by now adding the present section on 'Eclecticism,' so it may be hoped they will again extend their view and really complete the work with a transla- tion, by Miss Alleyne's competent and diligent hand, of the second division of Part III. which includes the later Scepticism, beginning with the school of ^Enesidemus, and the final effort of Neo-Platonism. The World as Will and Idea. By ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER. Translated from the German by R. B. HALDANE, M.A. and J. KEMP, M.A. Vol. I. London : Triibner, 1883. Pp. xxxii., 532. Vol. XXII. of the "English and Foreign Philosophical Library" presents a translation of the first four Books of Schopenhauer's famous work, con- taining the whole direct exposition of his systematic thought. Two volumes, to follow, will complete the translation of the work as it stood
