Excerpt from The Sexes Compared: And Other Essays
Berlin had now grown into a prosperous and well populated town, too noisy, in fact, for our studious and retiring philosopher. He accordingly, in 1885, shifted his home from the busy city into the quiet suburb of Gross Lichterfelde. In this pleasantly situated spot he has lived ever since, spending the morning in work, and the afternoon in giving musical instruction to his children, and in helping them with their home lessons; in the evening he is frequently visited by his Berlin friends.
Nothing is known in England of Hartmann, except that he is the author of The Philosophy of the Un conscious, and even this work seems only to have been read in the first two editions. Sidgwick, for instance, in his History of Ethics, devotes one or two pages to The Philosophy of the Unconscious, without having the least suspicion that Hartmann had also written a monumental work on Ethics, namely, The Phenomenology of the Moral Consciousness. It will not, therefore, be superfluous for me to give a concise account of our author's writings.
