Josiam Royce's own biography is fairly interesting, I seem to recall that he had a crisis at some point and got on a ship to Australia or something Domhail 07:12, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Royce and Berkeley Question:

About Royce's ideas, the main article says:

"The heart of Royce's idealist philosophy was his contention that the apparently external world has real existence only as known by an ideal Knower, and that this Knower must be actual rather than merely hypothetical."

How does this differ from Berkeley's idealism? The two types of idealism seem exactly the same to me. Many Thanks, Peter Ells (talk) 16:42, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
