The Enlightenment Background While Scottish philosophy of the 18th century is studied extensively, Scottish philosophy in the 19th century is neglected to the point of being virtually unknown. Francis Hutcheson, David Hume and Thomas Reid and are names familiar to almost all philosophers; Sir William Hamilton, James Frederick Ferrier and Alexander Bain to hardly any. Yet in their day, the names of these philosophers were not only prominent in Scotland, but widely known across Europe. To understand this decline in reputation, it is necessary to see 19th century Scottish philosophy against the background of the century that preceded it. According to George Davie there is an Cast in these terms it is easy to place the two most famous philosophers of the Scottish Enlightenment on either side of the divide. On the side of the first is Hume, whose skeptical conclusions arise from the Berkleyan presupposition asserted in the very first sentence of his

William Hamilton - Logician William Hamilton Born: 8 March 1788 in Glasgow, Scotland Died: 6 May 1856 in Edinburgh, London "William Hamilton was educated at Edinburgh and Oxford but, due to the unpopularity of Scots at Oxford, he did not receive a fellowship and returned to Edinburgh. He became the 9th Baronet after a law suit in 1861. In 1821 Hamilton was appointed professor of civil history at Edinburgh University, where, in 1836, he became professor of logic and metaphysics. Hamilton was one of the first in a series of British logicians to create the algebra of logic and introduced the 'quantification of the predicate'. Boole, De Morgan and Venn followed him. However Hamilton helped began this development and his work, although not of great depth, influenced Boole to produce a much more sophisticated system. Hamilton stimulated an interest in metaphysics and introduced Kant and other German philosophers to the British public.

WILLIAM HAMILTON HAMILTON, WILLIAM (1704-1754), Scottish poet, the author of The Braes of Yarrow, was born in 1704 at Bangour in Linlithgowshire, the son of James Hamilton of Bangour, a member of the Scottish bar. As early as 1724 we find him contributing to Allan Ramsays Tea Table Miscellany. In 1745 Hamilton joined the cause of Prince Charles, and though it is doubtful whether he actually bore arms, he celebrated the battle of Prestonpans in verse. After the disaster of Culloden he lurked for several months in the Highlands and escaped to France; but in 1749 the influence of his friends procured him permission to return to Scotland, and in the following year he obtained possession of the family estate of Bangour. The state of his health compelled him, however, to live abroad, and he died at Lyons on the 25th of March 1754. He was buried in the Abbey Church of Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh. He was twice married into families of distinction says the preface of the authorized edition of his poems. Hamilton left behind him a considerable number of poems, none of them except The Braesof Yarrow of striking originality. The collection is composed of odes, epitaphs, short pieces of translation, songs, and occasional verses. The longest is Contemplation, or the Triumph of Love (about 500 lines). The first edition was published without his permission by Foulis (Glasgow, 1748), and introduced by a preface from the pen of Adam Smith. Another edition with corrections by himself was brought out by his friends in 1760, and to,this was prefixed a portrait engraved by Robert Strange.

Hamilton, William Rowan (18051865) Hamilton was an Irishman and excelled at languages and mathematics at a young age. He read Euclid , Clairaut, Laplace , and Newton He went to Trinity College, Dublin, and studied both mathematics and literature. He was selected as professor of astronomy at Trinity while he was still an undergraduate. He created a new system of algebra for the complex numbers along with contributing several fundamental results in vector analysis. We owe the word vector to Hamilton. He also worked on problems in light refraction and reflection and optics. He tried to extend his complex number work and eventually developed a four -dimensional mathematical structure called a quaternion. Hamilton thought quaternions would become as important as calculus , but that did not happen. However, this work did contribute to the development of matrix algebra, vector analysis, and even some graph theory. His colleagues considered him a genial man of exceptional intellect with broad interests. Quotation: "Space and time are intimately intertwined and indissolubly connected with each other."

Quantity: Price: £10 help on ordering William - an Englishman by Cicely Hamilton Published in 1919, when it won the Vie Femina Heureuse Prize, William - an Englishman has been forgotten for eighty years. And yet this extraordinary novel, which begins with a scorching satire on the suffragettes and the merry time they have in their obsessive battle to gain the vote, and ends with a description of the First World War seen through the eyes of an 'ordinary' Englishman, is one of the great novels of the century. What the reviewers say William was chosen by the Mail on Sunday for its summer reading feature and described as 'a valuable find and certainly the most beautiful of the books listed here - thick paper, generous typesetting, lavishly colourful endpapers and matching bookmark.'
