Abstract

I Feel sure that I am expressing the unanimous feelings of all the foreign members and associates of the Congress when I offer our warm thanks for the most kind welcome that has been extended to us. The great Exhibition has brought a succession of representatives of all the nations to the city which has been for many centuries a metropolis of the world's civilization. It is right that they should dwell, not only on the material manifestations of that civilization, but also on its achievements and its strivings in the realm of intellect. At this International Congress of Philosophy your foreign guests are happy to offer their tribute to the resplendent culture of France.
