Summary "Auguste Comte et Herbert Spencer" by E. de Roberty is a philosophical treatise written in the late 19th century. The book explores the ideas and intellectual currents of the 19th century, focusing on the philosophies of Auguste Comte and Herbert Spencer, particularly the concepts of monism and agnosticism. It likely addresses the philosophical debates and frameworks that shaped the understanding of science, society, and human knowledge during this influential period. The opening of the work sets the stage for a detailed examination of the intellectual climate of the 19th century, highlighting a recurring tension between two philosophical waves: monism, which seeks to unify different branches of knowledge, and agnosticism, which acknowledges the limits of human understanding. The author expresses the importance of these ideas in the context of ongoing philosophical discourse and aims to critique the prevalent thought patterns that governed the understanding of unity in the universe, particularly through the lens of Comte and Spencer's work. The beginning thus establishes a critical framework for exploring the legacy of these thinkers and their impact on the evolution of modern philosophy. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
