' Zeno, the Eleatic, whom Aristotle called the father of dialectic,
was the first to prove that multiplicity and motion were impossible;
the former because the many must be a particular number over and
above which there might be always one more, the latter because of
the well-known property of time and space by which they admit
of infinite division. The arrow in its flight is always in one in-
finitely minute portion of space, — it is therefore always at rest.
A definite time cannot elapse, a definite space be traversed, because
first the half, and then the half of the half, and so on ad
infinituvfh^
has to elapse or be passed through, which gives an endless series
of subdivisions.

is its /orwi, which is the second most essential and
important principle for the comprehension of the
whole world. But matter is not merely formed and
modified by human energy; by some force to us un-
known, it is itself always active and creative of new
objects and new effects, which forthwith distinguish
themselves in form. This matter, which is imperish-
able through all the changes of its form, appears
properly as a substance, though the active, creative,
and formative element is the world-spirit, the Deity.
And here we come to the explanation of the uni-
versalia post rem. Human knowledge has first to dis-
cover these forms in nature, and to make them its
own by experience, which becomes possible through
reason ; for feeling is the form of what is felt, but
the reason is the form of the forms. For the rest, it
may be observed that our theory of the origin of
reason goes as far to justify the views of Aristotle as
those of Plato ; for although the creations of man-
kind indeed proceeded from obscure impulses of the
will, they only grew into thoughts and conceptions
by the sensible perception and contemplation of what
was created. They were thus in the beginning mora
post rem, and afterwards more frequently ante rem.
In many passages of ArLstotle we see clearly how the
true germs of his fundamental principle lay in this
unconsciousness of the origin of human reason and
the properties which it has derived from its origin.
Thus especially in the famous passage ^ : * But the
soul may be compared to the hand, for the hand is
the tool of tools, as the mind is the form of forms.'
There is a profound reason for this parallel between
the hand which shapes all things and the mind which
comprehends all forms. ' All things that become/ he

writings the germ of all that Scholasticism was sub-
sequently to set forth at large, and which was to be-
come the subject of the most far-reaching speculation
and the most embittered controversy. It is interest-
ing to observe here the first rise of these questions, and
to see how at that date views were allowed expres-
sion as harmless which the authority of the Church
was to condemn and anathematise a little later. The
fact was that in those days of living faith neither
the authors nor the Church had any conception of
the danger of these views and their subsequent
destructive effect.

^ ' In the whole of Nature there is thus only one and the same
material, to be known only by the fact that it is extended. All its
clearly recognisable qualities thus reduce themselves to this : it is
divisible, and its parts are movable, and therefore it is capable of
all the states which may follow from the movement of its parts.
For a merely imaginary division effects no change, all the variety
and differentiation of its form depend upon motion. And this has
been already observed from time to time by philosophers, who have
maintained that Nature is the principle of motion and rest. For
they understood by Nature, that in accordance with which all

^ Kant says exactly the same, only in inverse order, i.e. mind and
body are only ideas of the inward and the outward sense, and there-
fore respectively, thought (or, according to Descartes, affections of
consciousness) and extension.

DESCABTES. 1 53
The time had not yet arrived for the idea of causa-
tion to be tested and, together with the whole sum
of mathematical knowledge, to be traced back to its
real source. The idea of cause was looked upon as
an unassailable possession, and the work of specu-
lation seemed to be only to discover the corre-
sponding members, and to connect each thing with its
cause. We know that among the ancients Aristotle
attempted to investigate and distinguish the various
kinds of causes, but even he failed, as Schopenhauer *
has pointed out, to reach a distinct consciousness of
the important difference between material cause and
intelligible reason. Aristotle however did good ser-
vice by calling attention to the matter; he con-
stantly appeals to the nature of knowledge, and
treats the theory of perception as an important part
of the task of philosophy. His distinction between
final and eflScient causes (Svo Tpoiroi tjJ? alrlag' to oS
€V€Ka KOI TO €^ avayKfji) remains a valuable possession
of human thought, and with it the knowledge that
real necessitating belongs only to the latter of these.

There was only one other path left open, and this
was trodden by Spinoza, that namely of endeavouring
to restore to its original natural unity what had been
separated in thought. In this human reason returned
to its first instinctive conviction, but the newly- won
truth was really something quite different. For
there are always three stages visible in the progress
of human reason, from confounding to distinguishing,
from distinguishing to comparing, and from com-
parison to the establishment of a higher unity. On
this subject Geiger observes^ : —

^ Essay ii. cap. 2. Cf. Schopenhaner (Welt als Wille und Yor-
fitellung, i. p. 48) : ' Although conceptions differ fundamentally and
materially from sensible intuitions, they stand in a necessary re-
lation to the latter, without which they could not exist, a relation
which accordingly makes their whole nature and essence. Reflection
is necessarily an imitation, a repetition of the primitive images of
the world of intuition, though an imitation of an unique kind in a
wholly heterogeneous material. The whole world of reflection rests
upon that of intuition as its base.'
LOCKE. 249
LOCKE. 251
^ Eesaj iii. cap. lo. § 27. Kant has used the same image to
illustrate the relationship of ideas and intuitions. The same idea
was clearly floating in Locke's mind, though he thought of ideas
instead of intuitions, and words instead of ideas.
