	Ralph Barton Perry Biography / Biography of Ralph Barton Perry Biography
		Ralph Barton Perry was born on July 3, 1876, in Poultney, Vt. He received his bachelor of arts degree from Princeton University in 1896 and his master of arts and doctor of philosophy degrees from Harvard University in 1897 and 1899.
		Perry's General Theory of Value (1926) contended that interest is "the original source and constant feature of all value" and defined interest as that which belongs to the motor-affective life of instinct, desire, and feeling.
		Perry retired from Harvard in 1946 and was Gifford lecturer at Glasgow University until 1948.

	Commentary Magazine - Puritanism and Democracy, by Ralph Barton Perry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		JUDGED from the vantage point of any single discipline, Ralph Barton Perry's Puritanism and Democracy is not a major contribution.
		...In his opposition to historical relativism, to the view of humanism as a religion, and in his insistence upon the verifiability of value judgments, Professor Perry is at the same time at one and at variance with Becker, Kahler and Dewey...
		...At times Professor Perry seems to talk of a split between the individual and institutions-not in Rousseau's sense, to be sure, for no one today speaks of man except as a socially institutionalized animal...

		Ralph Barton Perry was Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University in the first half of the 20th century.
		Like many other scholars of education, Perry believed that education should be perceived in terms of outcomes, and NOT in terms of activities.
		The outcomes should be dually-centered; one part being in the individual learner, the other part in the society; with emphasis on the relationship of the individual to the society.

		Perry's text is the original, definitive expression of William James' philosophy, outside of the writings of James -- a founder father of the philosophical genre of pragmatism, contemporary American social thought and modern psychology -- himself.
		Perry organizes and effectively analyzes the whole array of James' diverse writings (including reprints of some tremendous and now otherwise difficult to find selections), enabling any reader to obtain a comprehensive and detailed understanding of James' philosophy.
		Perry's own skills as a writer are evident in such passages as the following, which is a most memorable description of the breadth and depth of Jame's character: "[James] called himself empiricist, pluralist, pragmatist, individualist, but whenever he did so he began at once to hanker after the fleshpots of rationalism, monism, intellectualism, socialist.

		When he returned to Harvard as a graduate student, James had retired, and the absolute idealism of Royce and Bradley was under attack by the New Realism of Moore and Russell in Great Britain and of W.P. Montague and Ralph Barton Perry at Harvard.
		The debate between Royce and Perry framed Lewis's dissertation and in it he attempted to forge a neo-Kantian middle road.
		There is no doubt, however, that Lewis saw that a realist of Perry's sort had no answer to it.

	Introduction
		Upon graduation in 1864 he enrolled in the Harvard Medical School, completing the M.D. degree in 1869, with a year off to participate in Louis Agassiz’s research expedition to Brazil.
		The underlying thesis of this book is that the primary clash is between his promethean and mystical selves, and the ultimate aim is to find some way in which James can unify them, or at least reconcile them with each other so that they can lie down together in peace.
		Due to Ralph Barton Perry's masterpiece, The Thought and Character of William James, it has become the "official" view that James's "Divided Self Blues" involves a conflict between his scientific and religious-moral aspirations.
