Links to Sites Containing Information on Dooyeweerd

• "New Critique; a website aiming to promote the magnum opus of the Dutch philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd" - this is a new site (1 September 2005) maintained by Paul Robinson. When it is fully constructed, the site will have a useful Study Guide for Dooyeweerd's New Critique.

• All of Life Redeemed - A 'reformational philosophy' website that has introductions to the thought of a number of reformational philosophers, and collections of papers and other publications from a growing list of current 'reformational' thinkers. It is an excellent source of discourse about Dooyeweerd and reformational philosophy in general.

• Dr. J. Glenn Friesen maintains a website of philosophy and religion, which includes a large section devoted to Dooyeweerd, Studies Relating to Herman Dooyeweerd. For study purposes, Dr. Friesen has provided a new hypertext translation of the following excerpts from Dooyeweerd's Wijsbegeerte der Wetsidee:
  • Dooyeweerd's original (1935) Foreword to his work (from Vol. I)
  • Excerpts from the Prolegomena (from Vol. I)
  • Excerpt on Epistemology (from Vol. II)
  • Glossary of hundreds of terms used by Dooyeweerd
  • His site also has considerable information about Von Baader.
  Dr. Friesen's hypertext translation of Dooyeweerd has over 13,000 internal links, with links into his Glossary. An excellent site.

It is for this reason that the heirs of Dooyeweerd, with the help and advice from scholars conversant with his philosophy, have incorporated the Foundation for the specific purpose to translate and make ready for publication, his major works, and, eventually, his entire oeuvre."
