| Summary: | Charles Hartshorne (1897-2000) is considered by many philosophers and theologians to be one of the greatest metaphysicians and philosophers of religion in the twentieth century. Some thinkers even see him at the top of the list in this regard. In several of his writings he indicates the influence of the famous nineteenth-century writer Matthew Arnold (1822-1888) on his thought. However, as far as Daniel A. Dombrowski knows, no one has yet explored this influence in detail or determined exactly what was Arnold’s influence on Hartshorne. In the present article he attempts such an exploration, which will also include a treatment of the important way in which Hartshorne, as a metaphysician, differs significantly from Arnold. In the course of this study he will also attempt to shed light on the “in between” status of liberal religion, in general. Mr. Dombrowski is Professor of Philosophy at Seattle University. |
