Freedom to be – on Iain McGilchrist and Rowan Williams

Iain McGilchrist and Rowan Williams were in dialogue on Friday 19th February 2021, a beautiful exchange that was sadly not recorded.

Here I offer some thoughts on it, particularly in the light of reflections offered by Matt Segall.

It concerns transcendence and immanence, being and becoming, eternity and processes in space and time – or to put it another way, the similarities and differences between the ontologies of Plato and AN Whitehead.

Matt’s reflections are online here – https://youtu.be/znoNfagDeUo​
