Carus, Paul

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Carus, Paul (1852–1919)

German-born US philosopher who emigrated to the USA in the early 1880s. Preaching reverence for science, he espoused a monistic philosophy – reducing the nature of everything to one substance – with pantheistic overtones in such works as Philosophy as a Science (1909).

He was born in Ilsenburg, Germany and left there because of his liberal views. A prolific writer, he also helped found two important journals, The Open Court (1887) and the Monist (1890), and was director of the Open Court publishing company in Chicago.
