Book Synopsis Herman Dooyeweerd by : Jonathan Chaplin
Download or read book Herman Dooyeweerd written by Jonathan Chaplin and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth-century Dutch philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd (1894–1977) left behind an impressive canon of philosophical works and has continued to influence a scholarly community in Europe and North America, which has extended, critiqued, and applied his thought in many academic fields. Jonathan Chaplin introduces Dooyeweerd for the first time to many English readers by critically expounding Dooyeweerd’s social and political thought and by exhibiting its pertinence to contemporary civil society debates. Chaplin begins by contextualizing Dooyeweerd’s thought, first in relation to present-day debates and then in relation to the work of the Dutch philosopher Abraham Kuyper (1837–1920). Chaplin outlines the distinctive theory of historical and cultural development that serves as an essential backdrop to Dooyeweerd’s substantive social philosophy; examines Dooyeweerd’s notion of societal structural principles; and sets forth his complex classification of particular types of social structure and their various interrelationships. Chaplin provides a detailed examination of Dooyeweerd’s theory of the state, its definitive nature, and its proper role vis-à-vis other elements of society. Dooyeweerd’s contributions, Chaplin concludes, assist us in mapping the ways in which state and civil society should be related to achieve justice and the public good.
Book Synopsis The Roots of Western Culture by : Herman Dooyeweerd
Download or read book The Roots of Western Culture written by Herman Dooyeweerd and published by . This book was released on 2024-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Dooyeweerd's most accessible work. It provides an understanding of Greek, medieval, and Modern Humanistic life-orientations in their historical development and inter-penetration - throughout confronted with the implications of an integral biblical understanding of the human condition, human society and the place and calling of scholarly reflection. It shows a healthy sense of solidarity and criticism with these various traditions. From a purely historical point of view, Dooyeweerd for example writes, Humanism has done more for the recognition of public freedom for religious convictions than did seventeenth-century Calvinism. Particularly instructive in this work is Dooyeweerd's unveiling of the origin of the modern ideology of community at the beginning of the previous century and its subsequent effects in National-Socialism.
Book Synopsis In the Twilight of Western Thought by : Herman Dooyeweerd
Download or read book In the Twilight of Western Thought written by Herman Dooyeweerd and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compact volume contains a series of lectures given by Dooyeweerd during his lecture tour throughout the United States and Canada in 1959. These lectures express the core essence of Dooyeweerd's four volume philosophical work A New Critique of Theoretical Thought. In a masterful summary, Dooyeweerd first tackles the central dogma of the modern era, namely, the dogma of the autonomy of theoretical thought. While this dogma has been challenged in many ways, both in the twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, none of these challenges have made the dogma a truly critical question. If they had, the claims for the constant centrality of rational thought from the ancient Greeks to medieval Thomastic scholasticism and on to both the modern and post-modern humanist expressions would be exposed as possessing radically different presuppositions which transcend the confines of theoretical thought. By subjecting this dogma to a truly radical critique, Dooyeweerd demonstrates that all theoretical thought is grounded upon religious presuppositions that exceed the boundaries of both philosophy and theology, and which need to be clearly exposed and articulated if theoretical thought is to truly understand its own nature. He similarly demonstrates how such a critique provides the basis for the development of a Christian philosophy that can challenge historicism and establish a fruitful dialogue with non-Christian thought.

Book Synopsis The Christian Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd by : Pierre Marcel
Download or read book The Christian Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd written by Pierre Marcel and published by WordBridge Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now available only in typewritten manuscript, Pierre Marcel’s two-volume analysis of the philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd has now been made available to the reading public in a magnificent English translation by Colin Wright. The first volume provides a detailed analysis of Dooyeweerd’s critique of theoretical thought. Dooyeweerd analyzed the very basis of thought itself, its presuppositions; and then also the consequences of those presuppositions. The entire range of historical philosophy is taken into account, as are all the schools that manifested themselves up until the time of his writing. The second volume provides an analysis of Dooyeweerd’s positive philosophy based on explicit presuppositions, those of Christianity. Dooyeweerd analyzes reality in the light of the framework of laws of thought embedded in the mind and in extant reality. The result is an audacious synthesis that provides a foundation for justified reason. Marcel constructively criticizes both these areas of Dooyeweerd’s achievement in the two volumes now presented. They will occupy the top shelf of the works dedicated to the analysis and continuation of the great Dutchman’s philosophical magnum opus.

Book Synopsis Creation Regained by : Albert M. Wolters
Download or read book Creation Regained written by Albert M. Wolters and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2005-11-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: with a Postcript coauthored by Michael W. Goheen In print for two decades and translated into eight languages, Albert Wolters's classic formulation of an integrated Christian worldview has been revised and expanded to reach new readers beyond the generation that has already benefited from this clear, concise proposal for transcending the false dichotomy between sacred and secular. Wolters begins by defining the nature and scope of a worldview, distinguishing it from philosophy and theology. He then outlines a Reformed analysis of the three basic categories in human history -- creation, fall, and redemption -- arguing that while the fall reaches into every corner of the world, Christians are called to participate in Christ's redemption of all creation. This Twentieth Anniversary edition features a new concluding chapter, coauthored with Michael Goheen, that helpfully places the discussion of worldview in a broader narrative and missional context.

Book Synopsis The Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd by : D F M Strauss
Download or read book The Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd written by D F M Strauss and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, in the 20th century, the Dutch legal scholar and philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd developed and introduced to the world a distinctly biblical philosophy untainted by pagan syntheses, what could be adequately called "reformational" philosophy. But this philosophy has remained obscure to most Christians, while the Church at large has unwittingly drunk from the depths of apostate pagan philosophy dressed in Christian religious garb. This book by D.F.M. Strauss is an excellent introduction and brief survey of Herman Dooyeweerd's Christian, reformational, and biblical philosophy.

Book Synopsis Reformation & Scholasticism by : Herman Dooyeweerd
Download or read book Reformation & Scholasticism written by Herman Dooyeweerd and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dooyeweerd's Reformation and Scholasticism volume two, provides what is perhaps the clearest entrée into his entire biblically driven philosophical systematics. The first two chapters discuss in detail the biblical, historical, and systematic issues that actually gave rise to the development of this intrinsically reformational philosophy. The third chapter presents what is arguably the clearest presentation of Dooyeweerd's transcendental critique of philosophical thought. Subsequent chapters go on in considerable detail to apply this latter critique to both the old Greek, and subsequent Thomist ideas of "substance" that have informed so much of the Western tradition of thought. The final chapters provide an extensive presentation of what Dooyeweerd means by the Modal and Individuality Structures of temporal reality. This work is a must read for those who want to understand the real Dooyeweerd.
