Description

The Saint Louis Philosophical Movement By Britt-Marie Schiller In 1858, two individuals, William Torrey Harris and Henry Brokmeyer, met at the St. Louis Mercantile Library, sparking the creation of the St. Louis Philosophical Society and its Journal of Speculative Philosophy. This movement focused on German idealism and New England transcendentalism, with a key emphasis on translating thought into action. The legacy of this movement was celebrated in 2008 by Webster University's Philosophy Department, which hosted a conference marking the sesquicentennial of its founding. The resulting publication brings together five essays exploring the movement, its members, and its lasting impact. Edited by Britt-Marie Schiller, this volume offers a comprehensive examination of the Saint Louis Philosophical Movement, shedding light on its history and significance.
