NETTLE8H1P FOKMKULY FELLOW OF BAX. t, IOL, COLLEOK, OXFORD VOL.. II PHILOSOPHICAL WORKS SIXTH IMPRESSION LONGMANS, GREEN AND CO. 39 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON NEW YORK, BOMBAY, AND CALCUTTA 1911 All rights reserved PREFACE OF THE EDITOR, THE present volume consists of selections from Professor Greens unpublished philosophical papers. It was his practice, both as college-tutor and as professor, to write out and keep full notes for most of his lectures. These were rewritten and amplified from time to time, and in some cases developed into tolerably finished compositions. In making selections from them it has been thought . advisable not to include anything written before 1874, the date of the Introductions to Hume see vol. I. The earlier drafts, though by no means devoid of interest, are for the most part superseded by those which are here printed and where this is not the case, the more careful composition of the latter seems to show that they contained the writers maturer views. Though not intended for publication, the manu scripts were in general continuous and coherent, and with a few unimportant exceptions they have been printed without change of form or expression. In cases where the order or connexion of passages was not obvious, I have had to exercise my discretion. I am also respon vi PREFACE. sible for the division into sections, the table of contents and the notes and insertions in brackets. My best thanks are due to Professor E. Oaird for advice in selecting the manuscripts for publication, to Professor A. C. Bradley and Mr. J. 0.
