To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In its ability to answer this question metaphysical analysis takes its chief interest and finds the most important test of the value of its conclusions. We must not, however, expect that the analy- sis will result in explaining, descriptively or syllogistically, the ultimate elements which it discovers in the answer to this question. Just because the elements it seeks are ultimate, they do not admit of such explanation. There are indeed no more general or specific terms in which to envisage, th...ink, or express them ; otherwise the analysis would be condemned as incom- plete. Nor do the fundamental " conceptions " of so-called On- tology admit of being established by processes of induction or deduction ; they are themselves those momenta, or terminal fac- tors of mental representation and belief, which enter into all knowledge, and so condition and make possible the processes of induction and deduction. Neither are they explicable by an- alysis resolving them into what are more fundamental forms of knowledge or of objects known ; they are explicated by analysis as given {data), as implicated in all forms of knowing 222 METAPHYSICS.
