CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
This research work was motivated by some of the intricate issues raised by Absolute idealism (Metaphysical monism) to interpret with certainty and objectivity existent reality. Some of these issues are summarized as follows:
(i) All realities are internally related (doctrine of internal relations)
(ii) The objective truths (for example, of logic mathematics, ethics, etc) are to be accounted for in terms of the operations of the subjective cognitive or psychological faculties (psychologism).
(iii) Objective knowledge is of the universal.
(iv) There exist universal minds to which others are subsumed.
(v) Phenomenological and external realities are copies of original that exist in the world of forms.
(vi) Mental entities exist independent of the knower
(vii) Thoughts in our minds are dim reflections of the universals (objective reality)
(viii) Universal are timeless
(ix) The ideas, forms, universal is the truth maker not external (physical) facts.
I was basically not comfortable with the meta-monistic interpretation of reality by the absolute idealist such as Plato, in that my understanding of the universe as a growing child in a plantation, was that of pluralism (realism). According to my grand father who is now one hundred and twenty years old, and one of the greatest artists and custodian of the Idoma culture and tradition, “every thing that is, exist discreetly, distinctly and uniquely on their own as such we have individual humans, trees, animals and other things”1. I have always held this metaphysical pluralistic understanding of the universe, until I entered the university to study philosophy as an undergraduate when we were thought about Plato’s Absolute idealistic conception of reality, which actually contradicts my pluralistic (realist) understanding of reality.
