James Feibleman
James Kern Feibleman (1904 - 1987) was a philosopher at Tulane University, Louisiana. From 1952 he edited Tulane Studies in Philosophy. He styled his system as axiological realism.
Feibleman was born July 13, 1904, in New Orleans, Louisiana.
At the age of nineteen I was sent north to take my last year of preparatory education at Horace Mann School in New York where I was graduated with honors in mathematics... I learned more in New York in a year than I had learned at home in four, more than I learned the following year at University of Virginia.
Returning to New Orleans, he worked in his family's department store and took up a study of business philosophy with Julius Friend. Together they authored Science and the Spirit of Man (1933), The Unlimited Commodity (1936), and What Science Really Means (1937).
"John McClure the poet…was a big help to me in the days of my late adolescence...I used to go down on his night off and sit on the porch of his French Quarter home and drink the eggnog which his wife made and talk poetry with him...McClure’s advice was something I never forgot, and I shall always be grateful to him."
Feibelman spent summers in Europe, in London and Rive Gauche, meeting with his peers at Le Dôme Café and Café de la Rotonde.
In lieu of a college program, Feibleman listed his readings with Friend in philosophy: "Plato and Aristotle, then reading the Stoics and Epicureans, the Neo-platonists, the medieval theologians, the Continental rationalists, the British empiricists, the German dogmatists, until we came again to modern philosophy where we found Reid and the early Moore, the early Russell, Nicolai Hartmann, Whitehead and Peirce the most congenial."
"In 1943, despite the fact that Feibleman had no college degree, Tulane University offered him his first academic position as acting assistant professor of English, hired to teach naval officers in training." "I sat in on mathematics courses given by my friends. I became a sort of hanger-on of the mathematics department, hoping to acquire by osmosis what I had refused to imbibe in the ordinary way by submission to discipline." "I remember taking Kelley's graduate course in mathematical logic, the last field which you might suppose to be exciting, but I remember the excitement."
