The Unknowable - George Santayana - Bog

The Unknowable: The Herbert Spencer Lecture is a philosophical book written by George Santayana. The author explores the concept of the unknowable, which refers to the limitations of human knowledge and understanding. Santayana argues that there are certain aspects of reality that are beyond the grasp of human reason and that we must accept our limitations in this regard. He discusses the limitations of science and the role of faith and intuition in our understanding of the world. The book is based on a lecture given by the author at the University of Oxford in 1922, and it is considered a classic of modern philosophy. It is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in the nature of knowledge and reality.THIS 36 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Oxford Lectures on Philosophy 1910 to 1923, by George Santayana.
