1 'To see is my dower, to look my employ. Words of the Tower-Watcher in Faust, II, 5, through which Goethe echoes his own relation to the world. 2 The last chapter but two in the edition of 1924. 3 For the drastic and as such very enlightening way in which Eddington presents the problem, the reader is referred to Eddington's own description. 4 Konfession des Verfassers.
It was at that instant of the major's soft-voiced pleading and of the widow's low, monosyllabic replies, that a voice from out the plantation on their left smote sharply upon their ears. It called affrightedly upon Mrs Eddington's name. The mother, whose mother-love was, and would always be, the strongest passion of her life, fled into the wood.
4 We may here recall Eddington's statement concerning the restriction of scientific observation to 'non-stereoscopic vision'. 5 An example of this is Reid's commentary on existing theories about sight as a mere activity of the optic nerve. 6 See Inq., VI, 13. This is precisely what Kant had declared to be outside human possibility. 7 Stratus means layer, cumulus heap, cirrus curl.
The pertinence of Eddington's statement is shown immediately one considers what a person would know of the world if his only source of experience were the sense of sight, still further limited in the way Eddington describes. Out of everything that the world brings to the totality of our senses, there remains nothing more than mere movements, with certain changes of rate, direction, and so on.
