Modern thinkers and present problems

Edgar A. Singer

This book presents a historical approach to modern philosophy through a series of connected papers on major thinkers and problems. It treats figures such as Bruno, Spinoza, Hume, Kant, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, pragmatism, and progress as recurring moments in a reflective life, rather than as parts of a single smooth narrative. The opening materials also frame the work as an invitation to read history for what it reveals about present thought and experience.

Day before yesterday

W. C. Tuttle

A duck-hunting tale built around the joke that the best shooting is always said to have happened “day before yesterday,” when the birds were supposedly plentiful and the hunters are always a little too late. The narrator moves through calls, long drives, club visits, and inflated reports from hunting grounds, only to find empty promises, crowded blinds, and disputes over who shot which ducks. The story satirizes duck hunters’ hopes, travel, and claim-jumping at the clubs.
