Description:

Did undergrad and grad and PhD there, returning after a stint in Paris with Etienne Gilson to teach in 1925. Dissertation on Spinoza.

" From Dewey I leamed to seek the significanc
of philosophic positions in the problems they were constructed to
solve, to suspect distinctions and separations which remove the processes of thinking from the experience in which they originated, and
ro relate the formulation of problems and dre discovery of solutions
to the cultural influences which determined the manner of their occurrence" (McKeon, Spiritual Autobiography)
