Scottish common-sense philosopher, colleague of Reid's, and professor of moral philosophy at Marischal College, Aberdeen from 1860, Beattie was famous for his refutation of Hume in his 1778 Essay on the Nature and Immutability of Truth. "An important, albeit minor figure in the Scottish Enlightenment, Beattie had the misfortune usually to be on the wrong side in his controversies — he opposed Hume and sided with Macpherson in the dispute over Ossian" [Rieber catalog #37].

Harkness Butler Bibliography, p. 36.
Butler adopted a radical form of Lamarckianism, contending that much of inheritance was based on habit making a feature ingrained, so that the trait could be passed on to future generations. Originally, Butler thought that he was adding an important modification to Darwin's theory — but then he discovered that Lamarck had proposed such a theory 50 years earlier. He read Mivart's Genesis of Species, with its powerful critique of natural selection, and concluded that Darwin was a charlatan who had taken all his good ideas from Lamarck except for natural selection. By the time it appeared in 1878 Butler's book had transformed from a companion to Darwin into a fierce attack. What Butler most objected to was the exclusion of mind from a Darwinian universe. He continued to write books promoting his own, private vision of evolution — Evolution Old and New in 1879; Unconscious Memory in 1880; and Luck, or Cunning? in 1887 — all championing his version of Lamarck's theory, all excoriating Darwin, and all completely unsuccessful.

Chapters on the mind, memory, imagination, character, temperament, instinct, friendship, materialism & idealism.Born in Osnabrück, Fortlage taught at Heidelberg and Berlin before becoming professor of philosophy at Jena in 1846, a post he held until his death. Originally a follower of Hegel, he turned to Fichte and the philosopher-psychologist Friedrich Eduard Beneke, agreeing with his assertion that psychology is the basis of all philosophy. The fundamental idea of his psychology is impulse, which combines representation (thereby presupposing consciousness) and feeling (i.e., pleasure). [Taken from the 11th edition Britannica].

Norman Catalog 1055. The first of Herbart's two major treatises on psychology. Like Kant whose chair he held at Königsburg, Herbart denied the possibility of psychological experiment. Nonetheless, he conceived of psychology as an empirical enterprise, which ultimately brought it within the domain of science with the work of Fechner and Wundt.Norman Catalog: "Herbart defined psychology as the mechanics of the mind and believed that mental processes could be described with mathematical exactness; in fact, he pioneered the use of mathematical models in psychological theory. He believed that ideas were independently active, and struggled with one another to cross the threshold into consciousness; ideas repressed during this struggle would then strive to re-emerge as memories. Herbart thus introduced concepts of suppression which reappear in Freud's theories of the unconscious, and anticipated current theories of memory and forgetting by interactive inhibition."

Introduced the distinction between declarative and procedural memory. "Ribot hypothesized that the highest forms of memory were dependent upon the cortex and that automatic, procedural memory was essentially a brainstem function" [Finger, Origins of Neuroscience, p. 364].
The English translation was revised & corrected by Rignano himself, who was Professor of Philosophy in the University of Pavia and editor of the journal Scientia (originally founded by Rignano as Rivista di Scienza). Rignano had already published a number of books on various aspects of reasoning, as well as on the inheritance of acquired characteristics. The present work began as an attempt to explain the nature of logical reasoning but expanded into a much larger inquiry into the relation of affect to thought and the evolution of reasoning ability. An interesting but now almost completely ignored work in which Rignano came close to articulating the state-bound theory of memory.
