The universe is One and a Many, a plurality of interacting subject selves and their unity, and how it can be both at once is the philosophical problem of twentieth century.
- James Ward
I got occupied with the problem of what, long before I put it on paper, I christened to myself as the 'two cultures'. For constantly I felt I was moving among two groups-comparable in intelligence, identical in race, not grossly different in social origin, earning about the same incomes, who had almost ceased to communicate at all, who in intellectual, moral and psychological climate had so little in common that instead of going from Burlington House or South Kensington to Chelsea, one might have crossed an ocean.
- C.P. Snow, 1959
When we consider what religion is for mankind, and what science is, it is no exaggeration to say that the future course of history depends upon the decision of this generation as to the relations between them. We have here the two strongest general forces...which influence men, and they seem to be set one against the other — the force of our religious intuitions, and the force of our impulse to accurate observation and logical deduction.
- Alfred North Whitehead, 1925
Differentiation [in our culture and in our universities] has gone about as far as it can go. It is time for a new integration.

Workshops
Texts studied in the workshops familiarize students with the ideas and terminology of perennial questions in intellectual history & their modern day manifestation -especially as it relates to the relationship between culture, science, and philosophy.
Education has historically been the gateway to a "better" life. A well-rounded education fosters altruism, a respect for diversity, and an enduring compassion for others. Arisbe is dedicated to promoting the education of those who seek it, yet are hindered from full access due to a variety of societal factors. Please explore and apply to our open scholarships below.
No scholarships are open at the moment, please check again in a few days.
