فلسفه هوسرل با همه پیچیدگی ها و جهت گیری های خاص خود، متأثر از آموزه های دکارت است؛ به طوری که روح کلی اندیشه های او را باید دکارتی دانست. برای فهم بهتر و دقیق تر فلسفه هوسرل می توان به میراث وی از دکارت توجه و وجوه اشتراک و افتراق فکری آن دو را ذیل هدف، روش و پیشرفتشان بررسی کرد. شباهت و تفاوت اصلی هردو در استفاده از شک، ظرفیت و امکانات آن است.

This paper will discuss some new implications of Whitehead’s philosophy for environmental thought.[i] They fall under three headings: 1. The interrelations between three ways of thinking about the environment: bioregionalism, land ethics, and the philosophy of organism. 2. The implications of Whitehead’s philosophy of organism for environmental aesthetics. 3. The implications of Whitehead’s philosophy of organism for human communities (sustainable communities) viewed as interfused with living nature.

What follows is an attempt to see Otto the phenomenologist within wider developments in the field, and to take account of some recent criticisms. Everything that is said falls under the general headingof 'introduction to the study of religion'(or 'meta-religionswissenschaft') Within this wide field, we shall be specifically concerned with the possibility of a systematic phenomenology of religion, and with that phenomenology of religion which takes its starting point from Otto's awareness of the numinous in its non-rational and rational forms and manifestations. In addition to this central insight of Otto's and deriving to a large extent from it, are the morphological categories which can be traced back further than Otto to Chantepie de la Saussaye (1869-1937). These categories form part of classical phenomenology of religion down to Friedrich Heiler (1892-1967). We shall come back to these categories after looking at Otto's numinous as the starting point for a global phenomenology.
