cs lewis source
By A
Customer on February 4, 2001

Format: Hardcover

'I found in Alexander's 'Space Time and Deity' his
theory of 'Enjoyment' and 'Contemplation'. These are technical terms in
Alexander's philosophy. 'Enjoyment' has nothing to do with pleasure, nor
'Contemplation with the contemplative life. When you see a table you 'enjoy' the
act of seeing and 'contemplate' the table.. . .I accepted this distinction at
once and have ever since regarded it as an indispensable tool of thought. . .
.Instead of the twofold division of Conscious and Unconscious, we need a
threefold division: the Unconscious, the Enjoyed, and the Contemplated.'

-CS Lewis, 'Surprised by Joy'

Metaphysical Masterpiece

By Ronald
W. Satz
on March 1, 2006

Format: Hardcover

If D. B. Larson is the Father of the Theory of the
Universe of Motion, then Prof. Samuel Alexander is the Grandfather. I've read
STD four times, and each time I've learned more. Alexander's metaphysics is
empirical and systematic, the opposite of Hegel's. He starts with pure
space-time (motion in a line), moves on to photons (vibrations), matter,
chemical compounds, biological cells, the human mind, and Deity. Space and Time
are not separate, but combined in Motion, which is the fundamental component of
the universe. Time is the "mind" of Space, and the "nisus" of Time brings out
the succeeding empirical levels; at each level there is something corresponding
to mind and body. We "enjoy" our mind and "contemplate" our body and other
existents. The categories (properties) of Space-Time belong to each piece of it;
Kant is wrong in declaring that the categories belong to the human mind only.
The theory is realist, not idealist, and is very well thought out and very well
written out. Larson's book Beyond Space and Time is basically a scientific
formulation of the same concepts (with a few differences, e.g. with a less
social ethics). In reading Alexander you will be in the company of perhaps the
greatest metaphysical mind of the 20th century. Other philosophers seem like
flunkies by comparison!
