The pragmatistic philosophy of which I hope to begin talking in my next lecture preserves as cordial a relation with facts, and, unlike Spencer's philosophy, it neither begins nor ends by turning positive religious constructions out of doors it treats them cordially as well. I hope I may lead you to find it just the mediating way of thinking that you require. Lecture II What Pragmatism Means
Schiller's doctrines and mine is that we are persons who think that by saying whatever you find it pleasant to say and calling it truth you fulfil every pragmatistic requirement. I leave it to you to judge whether this be not an impudent slander.
Rickert deals with part of the pragmatistic position under the head of what he calls 'Relativismus. I cannot discuss his text here. Surely in this field of truth it is the pragmatists and not the rationalists who are the more genuine defenders of the universe's rationality. Lecture VII Pragmatism and Humanism
If I mention the names of Sigwart, Mach, Ostwald, Pearson, Milhaud, Poincare, Duhem, Ruyssen, those of you who are students will easily identify the tendency I speak of, and will think of additional names. Riding now on the front of this wave of scientific logic Messrs. Schiller and Dewey appear with their pragmatistic account of what truth everywhere signifies.
