First Lecture: September, 1924
View through CrossRef
This chapter is the manuscript of Whitehead’s first lecture at Harvard, delivered on September 25, 1924. Whitehead writes on its second page that ‘At the present time, if philosophy is to remain true to its task of revealing and rationalising the inner preoccupations of humanity, one strain of philosophy must start from the analysis of the presuppositions of science’. He proceeds to argue the need for examining the ‘philosophical presuppositions of science’ (which would be the title of the class), and their relationship to metaphysics and theology.
