Description
What is significant in the world? How can stability and change be reconciled? Can a poem change the world? In answering these questions, Whitehead's naturalistic conception of symbols seeks to capture our experience of a material world as much as our emotionality or the meaning of art. This book structures Whitehead's thoughts on symbolisation and pinpoints the key position that symbols hold as a connecting link between process metaphysics, a critique of positivism and cultural philosophy. In doing so, Whitehead's philosophy of symbolism with its connection between mankind and the world is understood as an appeal to accept responsibility for our interaction with both one another and our surroundings as an essential element of our being.
