The Conception of Immortality is a philosophical book written by Josiah Royce, originally published in 1900. The book explores the concept of immortality and its role in human life and religion. Royce argues that the idea of immortality is central to many religious and philosophical traditions, and that it serves as a source of hope and meaning for individuals and societies. He examines the different ways that immortality has been conceived throughout history, and considers the implications of these conceptions for human life and society. Royce also discusses the challenges and criticisms that have been leveled against the idea of immortality, and offers his own perspective on how it can be understood and valued. The Conception of Immortality is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a nuanced exploration of one of the most enduring and complex ideas in human thought.1904. Josiah Royce was born in California where he began his teaching career. From 1882 he taught philosophy at Harvard where William James was an early influence. After the latter's death, Royce became the leading American philosopher of his day, always applying his thought to concrete moral issues and drawing upon an exceptional understanding of music, literature and history. In Conception of Immortality is Royce's explanation of the mystery of life and the nature of man.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
