Since
their beginnings over 800 years ago, Western
universities have become institutions where very broad
curricula embrace many individual disciplines, all
founded on the exercise of empirical and deductive
reasoning in the Aristotelian tradition. Their huge
success has eclipsed the exercise of speculative and
inductive reasoning in the Platonic or Neo-Platonic
tradition, which nonetheless remains available as an
alternative for pursuing the complementary integration
of today’s many specialized disciplines.
The First Analysis
Institute of Integrative Studies offers a school for exploring integrative
models that draw upon Platonic or Neo-Platonic reasoning. It seeks as well
to impose the rigor of Aristotelian reasoning so that such
integrative models will be acceptable to the broadest possible audience.
The First Analysis Institute conducts this process through its curriculum
of seminar based courses co-sponsored with universities as well as web based courses shown on this website.
The Enneagram seminar
series focuses on the Personality Enneagram as an integrative
personality model drawing from the specialized
disciplines of psychology and mathematics. The In Good Faith
seminar series focuses on the three complementary personalities of
the Abrahamic God drawing from the specialized
disciplines of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
The web based courses attempt to provide an
overarching paradigm encompassing the two
seminar series. |
