Book Description
Excerpt from Past Feelings Renovated, or Ideas Occasioned by the Perusal of Dr. Hibbert's Philosophy of Apparitions The idea of the present Essay first arose from a correspondence, wherein Dr. Hibbert's Philosophy of Apparitions' was mentioned, as offering a novel and ingenious theory to account for these mysterious and interesting phenomena. In the perusal, however, I could not avoid being forcibly impressed with the importance of the subject, and the total inadequacy of the theory, satisfactorily to account for many of the best authenticated relations, which, of course, are those most worthy of unbiassed discussion. The general tendency of the work, and the evident fallacy of many of the arguments in support of opinions too nearly approaching to Materialism, induced me to give the subject that serious consideration which it imperatively demands.
