His reputation rested as much on his eloquence, populism, and style as on original work.<ref name="scottishphilosophy.org">{{Cite web |url=http://www.scottishphilosophy.org/dugaldstewart.html |title=Dugald Stewart 1753-1828, Scottish Philosopher |access-date=28 June 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111008010442/http://www.scottishphilosophy.org/dugaldstewart.html |archive-date=8 October 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref> He was principally responsible for making the "[[Scottish Common Sense Realism|Scottish philosophy]]" predominant in early 19th-century Europe.<ref name="scottishphilosophy.org"/> In the second half of the century, Stewart's reputation fell to that of a follower of the work of Thomas Reid.<ref name="EB1911"/>

Stewart upheld Reid's psychological method and expounded the [[Scottish Common Sense Realism]],<ref>''Selections from the Scottish Philosophy of Common Sense'', ed. by G. A. Johnston (1915), essays by Thomas Reid, [[Adam Ferguson]], James Beattie, and Dugald Stewart ([http://oll.libertyfund.org/index.php?option=com_staticxt&staticfile=show.php%3Ftitle=2044&Itemid=28 online version]).</ref> which was attacked by [[James Mill]] and [[John Stuart Mill]]. Part of his originality lay in his incorporation of elements of moderate [[empiricism]] and the French ideologists [[Pierre Laromiguière|Laromiguière]], [[Pierre Jean George Cabanis|Cabanis]] and [[Antoine Destutt de Tracy|Destutt de Tracy]]. He opposed the argument of [[ontology]], and [[Étienne Bonnot de Condillac|Condillac]]'s [[sensationalism]].
