| | 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Supporters contend that the Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica (1911) represents "the sum of human knowledge" at the beginning of the 20th century; indeed, it was advertised as such. | | | The Eleventh Edition formed the basis for every edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica up until 1974, when the completely new Fifteenth Edition, based on modern information presentation, was published. | | | When T.S. Eliot wrote "Soul curled up on the window seat reading the Encyclopædia Britannica" he was certainly thinking of the eleventh edition. |

| | Or again, the process of scientific induction is a threefold chain; the original hypothesis (the first unification of the fact) seems to melt away when confronted with opposite facts, and yet no scientific progress is possible unless the stimulus of the original unification is strong enough to clasp the discordant facts and establish a reunification. | | | Thesis, antithesis and synthesis, a Fichtean formula, is generalized by Hegel into the perpetual law of thought (for a discussion of these three steps by Hegel, see the paragraphs 79-82 of his Encyclopedia). | | | They showed that a philosophical theory is not an accident or whim, but an exponent of its age determined by its antecedents and environments, and handing on its results to the future. |
