MACH, ERNST (1838 )

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LUP-MAL
MACH, ERNST (1838 ) , Austrian physicist and psychologist, was born on the 18th of
February
  '838 at Turas in Moravia, and studied at Vienna. He was professor of
mathematics
  at Gratz (18641867), of physics at Prague (1867-1895), and of physics at Vienna (18951901). In 1879 and 188o as
Rector
  Magnificus he fought against the introduction of Czech instead of German in the Prague University. In 1901 he was made a member of the Austrian
house
  of peers. In philosophy he began with a strong predilection for the
physical
  side of psychology, and at an early age he came to the conclusion that all existence is sensation, and, after a lapse into notimenalism under the
influence
  of Fechner's. Psychophysics, finally adopted a universal
physical
  phenomenalism. The Ego he considers not an entity sharply distinguished from the Non-ego, but merely, as it were, a
medium
  of continuity of sensory impressions. His whole theory appears to be vitiated by the confusion of physics and psychology.
