Excerpt from The Beginnings of English Utilitarianism: A Thesis Accepted by the Faculty of Cornell University for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, May, 1894 Perhaps no form of history is more interesting than that which has received the somewhat indefinite, because very general name, History of Philosophy. It is evident that we may understand the field of investigation thus indicated in a broader or in a narrower sense; and it is hardly necessary to remark that the accredited historians of Philosophy have actually differed more or less in their opinions as to the ground to be covered. Nobody would deny that the History of Ethics is a very essential part of the History of Philosophy, and, so far as ethical theories have formed an organic part of the general systems of ancient and modern philosophers, they may be said to have received due recognition at the hands of the historian. As the general tendency of English thought has been (or for a long time was) practical rather than speculative, it has happened, not unfortunately, that the progress of ethical theory in England has, on the whole, been less involved with the rise and decadence of definite systems of metaphysic than has been the case on the continent. Problems belonging distinctly to Ethics have for the most part been discussed on their own merits except, of course, where theological issues have been raised. If English writers have not always put forth the profoundest theories regarding the nature and meaning of morality, they have at least done inestimable service in the way of clear thinking and consistent reasoning.
