This dissertation presents a departure from the traditional approach to the study of Henry Nelson Wieman in three respects: (1) It focuses upon his post-1945 writing as a theological anthropology understood best when placed in the tradition of the Human Studies (Geisteswissenschaften). (2) It clarifies the way in which Wieman's understanding of the creative transformation of humankind and culture anticipates and harmonizes with the holistic paradigm of postmodernism. (3) It suggests that Wieman's concept of creative interchange as a cultural paradigm provides an enriching ethical dimension to the theoretical framework of evolutionary theology. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 49-08, Section: A, page: 2272. / Major Professor: Jackson Lee Ice. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1988.
