    George Trumbull Ladd an Vaihinger, New Haven (Conn.), 3.6.1897, 2 S., hs., Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Bremen, Aut. XXII, 6 c, Nr. 2

    Yale University, New Haven town, U. S. A.

    June 3d 1897

    Prof. Dr. Vaihinger, Halle a S.,

    Dear Professor Vaihinger:

    According to your request for material in behalf of the “Kantstudien” I have asked Dr Buchner[1] to prepare a notice of a work[2] of mine just published on the “Philosophy of Knowledge”, so far as this work interprets and critiques the positions of Kant.

    I enclose a notice of a Kant “Seminar”[3] which I expect to hold through next | year, with a class of graduate students of philosophy. A similar Seminary this year[4] has had some twenty-five members, engaged in the study of the “Kritik der reinen Vernunft”. Several pieces of work in preparation of Kantiana for doctor’s thesis[5] are already given out; and should they seem worthy, when finished, I will take the liberty to call your attention to them.

    I am, sincerely yours,

    George Trumbull Ladd

A rapid reading of Kant’s ethical writings will be followed by a more careful study of the Critique of Judgment, as a basis for discussing the principal conceptions in the philosophy of the beautiful. After an expository and critical lecture, a paper upon a topic given out some time in advance will be read, to be followed by discussion on the part of both teacher and class.
