Levels of Discourse
from Stephen Theron in Research, Humanities
Fom time and ´fancied contingency ("I didn't ask to be born") to the necessity of each for the whole, of all for each.
From Melody to Theme
from Stephen Theron in Research, Arts & Architecture
Melody replaces the All in a vision of a desired unknown. Theme "takes up" the all, the whole, in the particular. Everything finite passes to its opposite in lived contradiction
Thoughts Arising from Hegel's Philosophy of Nature
from Stephen Theron in Research, Humanities
An article of Derrida's stimulated me here, "Speech and Language" in Hegel, the idea of light as the first "ideality" in nature, the superiority of sound over sight as not "braking" the dialectic (an implicit philosophy of music here).......
A Philosophy of Christian Religion
from Stephen Theron in Research, Humanities
This, the second part of my "Unboundedly Rational Religion" appears here separately. I call it "thinking the tradition". A kind of re-formation once again, you might say.
Natural Law Reconsidered
from Stephen Theron
This is a reconsideration of the traditional natural law position, defended previously by the author. It is a maximal underpinning of life and freedom. One may usefully compare with my other text here on The Good Life.
Essays Hegelian and Ecumenical
from Stephen Theron in School Work, Essays & Theses
This is a companion to "Unboundedly Rational Religion" (also in MY DOCS). The chapters are more free-standing than there, although they are arranged to set forth a progressive train of thought (with interesting detours).

from Stephen Theron in School Work
The title is a play on Kant's "Religion within the Bounds of Reason Alone"
The Good Life
from Stephen Theron in School Work
"The Good Life according to Thomas Aquinas", systematicaly presented but as a personal vision nonetheless.
Speculation
from Stephen Theron in School Work, Essays & Theses
Let's speculate! Evolution, Hegel, Trinity, materialism. What is God?
Thematising Revelation
from Stephen Theron in School Work, Essays & Theses
What is or could be "revelation"? What, if anything, would not be "revelation"? Philosophy, prophecy....
Novel: Three is Company
from Stephen Theron in Creative Writing
This novel is not quite magic realism. The focus is on the characters, ethical (or un-ethical), with a light touch.
yours in Saint Dominic
from Stephen Theron in Research
love and personal identity, the concept "in" in spiritual, personal, religious and related contexts
Whatever Happened to Marxis2
from Stephen Theron in Research, Humanities
Need to preserve certain Marxist insights ( into Hegelianism particularly) after the political collapse of 1989 and after
