By William Gifford Palgrave

Book Overview

A Vision of Life: Semblance and Reality is a philosophical book written by William Gifford Palgrave in 1891. The book explores the concept of reality and how it relates to our perceptions and experiences of the world around us. Palgrave argues that our understanding of reality is often shaped by our own biases and preconceptions, and that we must strive to see beyond these limitations in order to gain a deeper understanding of the truth.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of reality and its relationship to our perceptions. Palgrave draws on a wide range of philosophical and literary sources, including the works of Plato, Shakespeare, and Nietzsche, to support his arguments.Throughout the book, Palgrave emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and introspection in gaining a deeper understanding of reality. He also discusses the role of art and literature in shaping our perceptions of the world, and argues that these creative works can help us to see beyond our own limitations and biases.Overall, A Vision of Life: Semblance and Reality is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of reality and our relationship to it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, psychology, or the nature of human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
