Adventures in Philosophy: Josiah Royce

Josiah Royce (1855-1916) was leader of the idealistic school in the United States. His main theme is that ideas are purposes, plans of action, rather than copies of reality. The ideal's fulfillment, plans that have met the requirements of action, represent external meaning. Thus purposes are incomplete without an external world in which purposes are realized. The external is therefore meaningless unless it is the fulfillment of some (internal) purpose.
