The Catechism of Positive ReligionA. M. Kelley, 1973 - 304 pagina's 1891. Comte, a French philosopher, was the founder of Positivism. Positivism is a philosophical system of thought maintaining that the goal of knowledge is simply to describe the phenomena experienced, not to question whether it exists or not. Comte sought to apply the methods of observation and experimentation, as was beginning to be used in the hard sciences, to a field that we now know as sociology. This is one of his later works. Contents: Explanation of the Worship; Explanation of the Doctrine; Explanation of the Regime, or System of Life; and General History of Religion. |
