摘要:I n the preface of the recently published third edition of his An Introduction to Philosophical Analpis John Hospers notes that he concurs with Mo~itzS chlick's observation that philosophy "is less a subject matter than an activity." In other words, is to be understood more in terns of its search for the truth than any particular set of questions for which it seeks to provide answers. To those familiar with John Hospers' own philosophical works, there can be no doubt that Hospers is as much, if not more, concerned 14th the search for truth than its possession. His works bear witness to this understanding of philosophy. They convey a sense of ongoing activity.
