Alfred North Whitehead and Yi Yulgok

- Toward a Process-Confucian Spirituality in Korea
Af: Chung Soon Lee Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser
This book explores the Confucian-Christian dialogue in Korea through a comparative study of the cosmologies of Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947), the founder of process philosophy, and Yi Yulgok (1536-1584), the great scholar of Korean Neo-Confucianism. Although their philosophical traditions are different, Yulgok and Whitehead''s perspectives on the universe were very similar. This study argues that Whitehead''s theory of eternal object-actual entity has affinities with Yulgok''s theory of principle-material force. Their two theories, both based on reciprocal dialectical interrelationships, view the world as a cosmos characterized by the process of becoming. Accordingly, Whitehead''s panentheistic interpretation of the God-world relationship correlates with Yulgok''s Neo-Confucian notion of how the Great Ultimate relates to material force. These two concepts suggest a balanced structure of God and the world and offer insights into encouraging interreligious spirituality in Korea.
