Borden Parker Bowne

Bowne, Borden Parker

Born Jan. 14, 1847, in Leonardville, New Jersey; died Apr. 1, 1910, in Boston. American idealist philosopher. Founder of theistic personalism. Professor at Boston University.

A tendency to combine theology and objective idealism is expressed in Bowne’s doctrine. In his philosophy of transcendental empiricism, Bowne used elements from the teachings of Berkeley, Kant, and Lotze. According to Bowne, reality is the aggregate of interrelated, empirical “personalities” that are dependent upon the creative activity of a higher personality, or god. In Bowne’s system, personality does not refer to a real person but to a kind of spiritual monad or soul, which retains its self-identity and reveals itself in the direct experience of an individual human personality. The objective world, its forms, and its qualities are created in the experience of the personality and are secondary in relationship to the personality (Personalism, 1908).
