| | Eucken, Rudolf Christoph (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) |
 | | Eucken studied at the University of Gottingen under the German thinker Rudolf Hermann Lotze, a teleological Idealist, and at Berlin under Friedrich Adolf Trendelenburg, a German philosopher whose ethical concerns and historical treatment of philosophy attracted him. |
 | | Appointed professor of philosophy at the University of Basel, Switz., in 1871, Eucken left in 1874 to become professor of philosophy at the University of Jena, a position he held until 1920. |
 | | A strident critic of naturalist philosophy, Eucken held that man's soul differentiated him from the rest of the natural world and that the soul could not be explained only by reference to natural processes. |
