Excerpt from book: the formative principles of knowledge; too much of God as a moderately benevolent taskmaster, too little of Him as a fount of righteousness and truth. There was but little of the philosophic spirit which views the world as from a mountain-top; no professed philosopher taught in the spirit of Plato as the spectator of all time and existence." " It is now possible in the remainder of the chapter to enumerate the more important of Green's writings in their chronological order. In 1862 he won the Chancellor's prize for an essay entitled, " The Value and Influence of the Works of Fiction in Modern Times." This essay indicates both the author's breadth of interest and his real literary scholarship and appreciation. In 1866 he gave to the North British Review an article for publication on the " Philosophy of Aristotle." During 1874 and 1875 Green published his first criticism of English empiricism, in his introduction to a new edition of the works of Hume. He, at this time, speaks of his work as an inquiry " into the course and philosophical movement which is represented by the names of Locke, Berkeley and Hume." Green's Introduction of three hundred and eighty pages to Hume's work of five hundred and fifty pages, presents destructive criticism of English rationalism and empiricism. The spirit in which the criticism is made is expressed on page 5 of the Introduction in these words: " A process, which looks like pulling a great philosopher to pieces, may be the true way of showing his greatness."This Introduction indicates Green's basic principles in philosophy, " the central conception " of which, Nettleship says, " is that the universe is a single eternal activity or energy, of which it is the essence to be self-conscious, that is, to be itself and not itself in one.
