H. G. Wells
1908
A philosophical work written during the early 20th century. The book delves into the author's introspections regarding personal beliefs, morality, and the nature of existence. In an earnest attempt at self-examination, Wells presents a confession that aims to articulate his metaphysical inquiries and the guiding principles he wishes to adopt in his life. At the start of the text, Wells introduces the inspiration behind his writings, explaining that his thoughts arose from discussions with peers about uncertainties in their outlook on life and moral frameworks. He expresses a desire to clarify his own understanding of beliefs, sharing these reflections as an intellectual exploration rather than an authoritative teaching. As he begins his metaphysical approach, he stresses the importance of questioning the nature of knowledge and truth to avoid miscommunication and misunderstandings in human discourse. This opening section sets the stage for an intricate examination of the relationship between thought, language, and reality, hinting at his wider exploration of beliefs that will unfold throughout the book.
