"Wahrheit suchen und Wahrheit bekennen"

Alexius Meinong, Skizze seines Lebens

Evelyn Dölling , Johann Christian Marek

pp. 408-413

There are already numerous monographs and anthologies on Alexius Meinong's philosophical work, but there has, until now, been no comprehensive biography. Evelyn Dolling has succeeded in filling this gap with her Skizze seines Lebens (Sketch of his life). Her attempt to delineate Meinongs's life (1853–1920) takes the form of a sketchbook. It consists of several sketches. Some of them are meticulously detailed, as for example the description of Meinong's struggle to establish a psychological laboratory in Graz. Others consist of just a few strokes, and do not go beyond indications and bibliographic notes, as in the case of Meinong's relationship to his younger disciples, for instance Ernst Mally and France Veber.
