Résumé

It is a commonplace that Logic, Aesthetics, and Ethics have a peculiar position among the sciences: whereas all other sciences are concerned with the description and explanation of what happens, these three normative studies aim not at description but at criticism. To account for our actual conduct is the duty of the psychologist; the logician, the critic, and the moralist tell us not how we do but how we ought to think, feel, and act.
