Herman Dooyeweerd

Jonathan Chaplin

University of Notre Dame Press
2022
sidottu
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.

"He has a very high and noble nature, and [is] better worth immortality than most of us"óso Hawthorne wrote of Herman Melville in his journal for 1856. This collection of essays undertakes to re-examine the "nobility" of Melville's powerful and engaging imagination. Not only are his primary motifs of "the journey" and the quest for Truth given attention, but also his subtleties as a great maker of fiction are analysed. Hence the collection as a whole stresses Melville's way with language and irony and his serious, inventive playfulness as a writer.

Herman Melville: A Biography offers an in-depth exploration of the life and literary genius of the author behind Moby-Dick. Rooted in extensive research and collaboration, this biography provides a nuanced narrative of Melville’s life, contextualizing his experiences within the broader intellectual, cultural, and historical landscapes of 19th-century America. The book draws heavily on Jay Leyda’s groundbreaking Melville Log, combining the rigor of archival discoveries with a narrative that seeks to humanize the author. By emphasizing the relationship between Melville’s life events and his literary creations, the biography aims to restore the humanity often obscured in discussions of his works, revealing the motivations, influences, and processes that shaped his remarkable oeuvre. This biography distinguishes itself by not only recounting Melville’s life but also treating his books as pivotal events within it. It examines how his personal experiences, literary inspirations, and creative struggles coalesced into the masterpieces that have stood the test of time. With a meticulous approach to documentation and inference, the book uncovers new insights into Melville’s life, from his travels and financial struggles to the inspirations behind his autobiographical works. Rich in collaboration and drawing on the expertise of leading Melville scholars, this biography serves as an invaluable resource for understanding one of America’s most enduring literary figures, bridging the gap between Melville’s humanity and his towering literary legacy. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1967.
