ABSTRACT
Professor Hiralal Haldar, sometime George V Professor of Philosophy in the University Arts College, Calcutta, was one of the teachers of the College who were best liked by their students. He was one of those who best understood their subject and conscientiously made every attempt to make the students understand it. His favourite subject was Kant, the post-Kantians and the neo-Hegelians. Whatever the students of Calcutta, during his professorship, understood of Kant and Hegel they owe him. And as most of the teachers of the department of philosophy in that university were his students, we shall not be far wrong if we say that it was his understanding of Kant and Hegel that was being transmitted to the students till very recently.
