Abstract:
English-language philosophical debate about the relation of mind (or soul) and body, and in parallel, cultural debate about the relation of the humanities and the natural sciences in education, drew in the twentieth century, and draws again now, on the writings of Al­fred North Whitehead (1861‒1947). The paper explains this. To do so, it describes White­head’s project in systematic metaphysics (or speculative cosmology), best known from Science and the Modern World (1926). Whitehead required metaphysics to be self-consis­tent, to be informed by and in turn to inform modern scientific knowledge

Abstract:
This paper looks into kenotic theology, which draws keener attention in present days than various traditional perspectives on God, and why it emerges as a significant doctrine of divinity. The project will discuss how the concept of God can be reinterpreted when engaged with a kenotic way of thinking. The purpose of this study is to discover how the metaphysics of Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947), which gets further noticed by modern philosophers of life, is connected with kenotic thinking process. The paper will also analyze how the knowledge of life and nature in the 21st century and the t

Abstract:
This paper will suggest that the work Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) provides a fruitful resource for understanding the philosophical development and validity of scientific concepts through an analysis of their socio-historical location. The paper will address two key elements of Whitehead’s thought. One element is "The Bifurcation of Nature" and the paper traces the influence that this conceptual compromise has had on philosophy and science through its reinforcement of the division between the natural and the social sciences. The second element is the status of abstraction in thought and

Abstract:
Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947) called his philosophy the ‘philosophy of organism.’ How come this mathematical physicist became a proponent of organicism instead of mechanicism? The main reason is that, early on, Whitehead clearly saw that with the advent of Maxwell’s theory of electric and magnetic fields, Einstein’s theories of relativity, and Bohr’s theory of the atom, even physics was no longer the mechanical discipline most philosophers held it for. But there was more. Whitehead knew many biologists of the first generation of organicists, and he was influenced by their organicist view.

Abstract:
By all accounts, Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947) is virtually synonymous with process thought, including its more specific expressions as process philosophy and theology. This is most often assumed with little regard for the origins of modern process thought itself. Nicholas Rescher, reflecting on this fact, has called the pluralization of the field the “cardinal task” of all process proponents. This charge, given nearly thirty years ago, remains unfulfilled. Despite the fact that other candidates are available, the preeminence of this singular figure, and subordinately his later interprete

Abstract:
For most, the way to process thought has been through mathematician-turned-philosopher Alfred North Whitehead (1861–1947). However, his contemporary, Swedish–American philosopher John Elof Boodin (1869–1950), offers another path. While both clearly exposit a process-based philosophy/theology, there are important differences. The main purpose of this essay is to delineate those differences and highlight Boodin’s concept of cosmic immanence (CI) as a key feature separating him from Whitehead’s metaphysic. It is argued that CI can provide the heavy lifting for developing a coherent and satisfying

Au XXe siècle, pour des raisons difficiles à cerner (mais qui tiennent probablement aux vastes charniers engendrés par les guerres et les totalitarismes), les théologiens du Process ont estimé que la conception traditionnelle d’un Dieu purement transcendant était celle d’un monstre, indifférent au monde et à ses souffrances, sans rapport avec le Dieu d’amour annoncé par les Évangiles. Ils ont donc proposé de repenser la conception de Dieu à partir de la métaphysique de Whitehead, afin de réconcilier Dieu et le monde à travers une conception dipolaire de Dieu, c’est-à-dire une conception dans l

The Intention of this thesis is to develop a Process christology which is valid and coherent with respect to the principles of Whitehead's Process philosophy and adequate with respect to Christian faith. As indicated by the title, the study moves from Whitehead's vision to the christological adventure. Although this necessitates that the criteria are essentially philosophical, it is stressed that the discussion finds its inspiration in faith. For that reason the second chapter describes the Process christologies of Norman Pittenger. John Cobb, Schubert Ogden and David Griffin. That discussion

A cette fin, Whitehead développe la méthode de l'abstraction extensive : un modèle logico-mathématique qui permet d'exprimer ces différents types d'objets dans les termes mêmes des événements e

Avec cette notion de transcendance, c’est encore la notion de rupture qui est soulignée, à l’encontre d’une lecture traditionnellement plus bergsonienne.

L’objectif de ce travail est de penser l’être humain à partir de l’expérience religieuse. La question religieuse est une préoccupation profonde de Whitehead : dans son parcours personnel et dans ses écrits. L’expérience en elle-même a, en outre, l’avantage de proposer une approche scientifique qui n’évince pas le sujet et une analyse qui permet de penser le mouvement, le changement et non seulement la permanence ou la répétition.

Abstract:
Born in England in 1861, Alfred North Whitehead turned to philosophy after a brilliant career in mathematics, where he developed a philosophical scheme based on experience as the ultimate unit of analysis, rejecting what he called the bifurcation between mind and nature that had dominated philosophical thought. He also invoked the idea of concrete experience to connect to American pragmatism, and especially to William James’s work.
