Description
"English philosopher and lecturer George Edward Moore (1873-1958) is well known for his part in the development of modern philosophy. In this unique critical study of Moore's metaphysics, E.D. Klemke examines Moore's important works, including Principia Ethica, Some Main Problems of Philosophy, Philosophical Papers, Philosophical Studies, "A Defense of Common Sense," and "The Refutation of Idealism." Klemke offers a convincing argument on behalf of philosophical realism, first by distinguishing the five different senses of realism, and then by taking Moore's fragmented analyses and reconstructing several arguments implicit in them, thus demonstrating the nature and content of Moore's metaphysical approach."--Jacket.
