[77] Liebmann passed away in January 1912.  He had been Eucken’s colleague in Jena for many years.  Windelband designates him as “the truest of Kantians and the Nestor of Philosophy.” Cf. my article on his life and work in the Nation for February 3, 1912.  The best presentation in England of the Kantian philosophy and its development is to be found in Caird’s Critical Philosophy of Kant and Adamson’s Development of Modern Philosophy.  Cf. also G. Dawes Hicks’s valuable articles in the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society during the past ten years.

     [78] Analysis der Wirklichkeit,3te Auflage, 1900, S. vii.

[79] Cf. Dilthey’s Erlebnis und Dichtung; his article “Die Typen der Weltanschauung und ihre Ausbildung in den metaphysichen Systemen” in Weltanschauung; Philosophie und Religion in Darstellungen, 1911 also, “Das Wesen der Philosophie” in Systematische Philosophie ("Kultur der Gegenwart").

     [80] Cf. Eucken’s Hauptprobleme der Religionsphilosophie der
     Gegenwart
, 5te Auflage, 1912, chapter iv.  Also, Erkennen und
     Leben
(1912), ss. 35-51.

     [81] The Truth of Religion, p. 574.  Many hints in this and other
     respects may be found in W.R.  Boyce Gibson’s valuable work, Rudolf
     Eucken’s Philosophy of Life
(3rd edition, 1912).

     [82] The Truth of Religion, p. 71.

     [83] “Gesammelte Aufsaetze”:  Die Bedeutung der kleiner Nationen,
     pp. 47-52.

     [84] This truth is pointed out most forcibly by L.P.  Jacks in his
     Alchemy of Thought, chap. i.

[85] Eucken visited England for the first time during Whitsun-week 1911.  He had been invited by the Committee of the British and Foreign Unitarian Association to deliver in London the Essex Hall Lecture for the year.  A large audience gathered together to see and hear him, and he received a most cordial reception.  He spoke in German on Religion and Life, and the lecture has since appeared in English.  The Rev. Charles Hargrove, M.A., of Leeds (President of the Association) presided over the meeting, and spoke of the great importance of Eucken’s growing influence.  Interesting addresses were also delivered by Dr J. Estlin Carpenter, Principal of Manchester College, Oxford; and Dr P.T.  Forsyth, Principal of Hackney College.  At the luncheon which followed, Professor Westermarck, Dr R.F.  Horton, and others spoke.  The lecture was repeated at Manchester College, Oxford, during the same week.  On Whitsunday Eucken preached in the evening at Unity Church, Islington, London, N., at the invitation of the writer of this volume.

     In September 1912 Eucken sailed for the United States of America to
     deliver a course of lectures at Harvard University covering a
     period of six months.
