First edition of Moore's seminal magnum opus, his hugely influential ""Principia Ethica"", which helped found analytic philosophy and introduced and named the ""naturalistic fallacy"". ""Moore's ""Principia Ethica"" (1903) is a landmark in the history of ethics. Its impact and influence on subsequent ethical theory, at least in Anglo-American philosophy, have been tremendous. Its specific doctrines of the indefinability of good and of the naturalistic fallacy, whether reinforced, amended, or even rejected, by later theorists, have served as the starting points of much of twentieth century philosophy."" (Morris Weitz, 20th-Century Philosophy: The Analytic Tradition, (1966), p. 68).George Edward Moore (1873-1958) is one of the most influential twentieth century philosophers, and his contributions to analytic philosophy can be compared only to those of Russell, Wittgenstein, and Frege, with whom he founded this philosophical discipline. His impact on Anglo-American philosophy in the 20th century is unsurpassed. ""Principia Ethica"" is the most important of Moore's works. In this work, he makes use of analysis to establish the main doctrines of the book, and thereby lays one of the cornerstones of analytic philosophy. Moore here applies logic to ethics and shows us how this can provide a better foundation for ethics. Moore begins by showing that analysis will reveal to us that ""good"" is a simple, non-natural, and indefinable property, which cannot itself be defined and analyzed, because it is not a complex object that can be divided, but a simple object of thought and goes on to define ethics as an inquiry into what is good. He furthermore shows how sometimes false premises in the definition of good lead to false conclusions about ethical behavior and he introduces his seminal concept ""naturalistic fallacy"", which is defined as the error of assuming that ""good"" can be defined by naming various properties of things which we believe to be good. ""Naturalism"", according to Moore falsely assumes to have defined ""good"" and is therefore unable to provide any logical reason for any principle of ethics.""It appears to me that in Ethics, as in all other philosophical studies, the difficulties and disagreements, of which history is full, are mainly due to a very simple cause: namely to the attempt to answer questions, without first discovering precisely WHAT question it is which you desire to answer. "" (Moore, Preface, p. VIII). ""The influence [of ""Principia Ethics""] was not only overwhelming"" it was exciting, exhilarating, the beginning of a renaissance, the opening of a new heaven on a new earth, we were the forerunners of a new dispensation, we were not afraid of anything."" (Keynes).

First edition, off-print - from the library of Wittgenstein -, of the first classic text of Realism, one of Moore's main works and a huge inspirational source for analytic philosophy.Off-prints of the present work are of great scarcity, and the present copy has been in the possession of Ludwig Wittgenstein, who was probably given the copy by Moore himself. Wittgenstein handed over some of his belongings, including a number of his books, to his life-long friend Ludwig Hänsel. Among these belongings was the present copy of Moore's influential work.Wittgenstein did not have many close friends, but the closest- together with Rudolph Koder- was Luwig Hänsel, who was a high-school teacher of German and literature. Hänsel and Wittgenstein, who befriended each other in 1918 while being war prisoners in Monte Casino, also remained close friends throughout their lives.George Edward Moore (1873-1958) is one of the most influential of twentieth century philosophers, and his contributions to analytic philosophy can be compared to only those of Russell, Wittgenstein and Frege, with whom he founded this philosophical discipline. His impact on Anglo-American philosophy in the 20th century must be said to be nearly unsurpassed, and his ""Refutation of Idealism"" constitutes his most important, influential, and consequential criticism of idealism.""""The Refutation of Idealism"" (1903) is the first classic text of Realism. Although ostensibly a refutation of the doctrine that ""to be is to be perceived"", which Moore took to be central in all arguments for the Idealist view that reality is spiritual, it is also a vindication of the common-sense notion that what is experienced is often distinct from and logically independent of our experience of it as well as a vindication of analysis as a method for discerning constituents of certain complexes in the world. Basic to Moore's refutation of Idealism is the rejection of the logical doctrine that all relations, including that of the object and subject of experience, are internal. Yellow and the sensation of yellow are not only distinct, but the latter also involves and external relation between consciousness which is mental and yellow which is not."" (Morris Weitz, edt., 20th-Century Philosophy: The Analytic Tradition, 1966, p. 14).For Wittgenstein, the question of idealism is absolutely central in most aspects of his philosophy, and this main work on the area must therefore have been of the utmost interest to him. When Wittgenstein claims that the limits of language are the limits of the world (the early Wittgenstein - Tractatus published 1921) and considers the possibility of private language (the later Wittgenstein - Philosophical Investigations - published 1953), it is continually idealism that is at stake, and the question of the idealism (or the refutation of idealism) in the works of Wittgenstein is a highly debated and often not agreed upon point. Wittgenstein must have read Moore's important work on the subject, before he wrote his own works, as it appeared many years earlier, and as he evidently had a copy of the off-print.

The very rare first edition, off-print, - from the library of Wittgenstein (not stated anywhere in the copy, but the copy comes from the descendents of Hänsel, who verify the provenance) - of one of Moore's main and most widely read papers, in which he discusses ""meaning"", analyzes truth and falsity, and departs from the generally accepted ideas of Bradley as well as from the essence of idealistic philosophy.Off-prints of the present work are of great scarcity, and the present copy has been in the possession of Ludwig Wittgenstein, who was probably given the copy by Moore himself. Wittgenstein handed over some of his belongings, including a number of his books, to his life-long friend Ludwig Hänsel. Among these belongings was the present copy of Moore's influential work.Wittgenstein did not have many close friends, but the closest- together with Rudolph Koder- was Luwig Hänsel, who was a high-school teacher of German and literature. Hänsel and Wittgenstein, who befriended each other in 1918 while being war prisoners in Monte Casino, also remained close friends throughout their lives.George Edward Moore (1873-1958) is one of the most influential of twentieth century philosophers, and his contributions to analytic philosophy can be compared to only those of Russell, Wittgenstein and Frege, with whom he founded this philosophical discipline. His impact on Anglo-American philosophy in the 20th century must be said to be nearly unsurpassed. The present paper constitutes one of Moore's earliest departures from idealistic philosophy and one of his his first severe criticisms of internal relations. He discusses the concepts of true and false and thereby also considers idealism in both Kantian and Bredleyan form, departing decisively from this philosophical direction. ""An important early context in which he elaborates it is his discussion of meaning in his famous paper 'The Nature of Judgement' (1899), which comes largely from his 1898 Dissertation. Moore begins here by attributing to Bradley a quasi-empiricist view of meaning as abstracted from the total content of judgement..."" (SEP).

Thomas Moore (né à Dublin le 28 mai 1779 - mort à Sloperton Cottage (Bromham, Wiltshire, Angleterre) le 25 février 1852) est un poète irlandais. Il voyage en Europe, notamment à Venise où Byron lui confie son journal. Entre 1820 et 1822, il est accueilli à Sèvres près de Paris par la famille de Martin de Villamil. Il est particulièrement connu pour ses "Irish Melodies" contenant 130 poèmes tels que The Minstrel Boy ou La dernière rose de l'été qui, mis en musique par Moore lui-même et Sir John Andrew Stevenson, sont emblématiques de l'Irlande, très appréciés et très souvent repris. Ils ont fait de Moore un héros populaire pour les nationalistes irlandais Son uvre a beaucoup marqué le compositeur Hector Berlioz qui lui emprunte le terme « mélologue ». Le peintre Gilbert Stuart Newton a réalisé un portrait de lui. En 1849, il tombe dans la démence sénile et meurt à Sloperton [archive] (Bromham, Wiltshire, Angleterre) le 25 février 1852.

The very rare first edition of the separate re-print - from the library of Wittgenstein (not stated anywhere in the copy, but the copy comes from the descendents of Hänsel, who verify the provenance) - of this essential paper, which also played a great rôle for Wittgenstein.Off-prints of the present work are of great scarcity, and the present copy has been in the possession of Ludwig Wittgenstein, who was probably given the copy by Moore himself. Wittgenstein handed over some of his belongings, including a number of his books, to his life-long friend Ludwig Hänsel. Among these belongings was the present copy of Moore's influential work.Wittgenstein did not have many close friends, but the closest- together with Rudolph Koder- was Luwig Hänsel, who was a high-school teacher of German and literature. Hänsel and Wittgenstein, who befriended each other in 1918 while being war prisoners in Monte Casino, also remained close friends throughout their lives.George Edward Moore (1873-1958) is one of the most influential of twentieth century philosophers, and his contributions to analytic philosophy can be compared to only those of Russell, Wittgenstein and Frege, with whom he founded this philosophical discipline. His impact on Anglo-American philosophy in the 20th century must be said to be nearly unsurpassed. The present work constitutes one of his most important contributions to philosophy, touching of several of the points that form the fundamental questions of e.g. Wittgenstein's ""Tractatus"""" for instance: what lies behind that which we see in the world? What can we say about it? And how? Or for Wittgenstein's ideas of e.g. private language: One of the main questions put forth here by Moore is: ""How do we know that there are any other people, who have perceptions in some respects similar to our own?"" (p. 2).""There are two beliefs in which almost all philosophers, and almost all ordinary people are agreed. Almost everyone believes that he himself and what he directly perceives do not constitute the whole of reality: he believes that ""something"" other than himself and what he directly perceives ""exists"" or is ""real"". (p. 1).There is no doubt that the essential questions put forth in the present paper have been of interest to Wittgenstein, and there is no doubt that Wittgenstein has read the present paper. In a letter to Russell from 1913 Wittgenstein writes: ""... By the way - would you be so good and send me two copies of Moore's paper: ""The Nature and Reality of Objects of Perception"" which he read to the Aristotelian Soc. in 1906. I am afraid I can't yet tell you the reason why I want two copies but you shall know it some day. If you kindly send me the bill with them I will send the money immediately after receiving the Pamplets..."" (L. Wittgenstein, Cambridge Letters, Blackwell Publishers, 1995).
