= Ziegenfuß I, 199; PMM 295: "(...) The remarkable achievement of Comte (...), is the construction of a system which embraces all human activity and knowledge. Having performed this great and real service to thought, he almost sacrifices any claim to gratitude by the invention of a system of control which is jejune and retrograde. None the less, his attempt to link up all science, to relate its development to the progress of society, and to combine it with a system of improvement with humanity in place of an external supreme being, is still one of the major documents of secular philosophy."; The Encyclopaedia of Philosophy vol.II, p.173-177: "(...) [Comte] has a good claim to having originated the new science of sociology; certainly, he coined the term. (...) His influence on nineteenth century thought was strong; he had numerous disciples, such as Émile Littré, and sympathetic supporters, such as John Stuart Mill. His ideas still have important meaning and interest. (...)".
