 Professor
of Philosophical Theology in the Caspersen School of Graduate Studies
of Drew University in Madison, NJ.
Dr. Corrington's research involves an interdisciplinary approach to
problems of meaning, semiotics, and unconscious processes in the
self/world correlation. His long-time interest in parapsychology is
focused most recently on the issue of how the unconscious, in its
various modes, interacts with the forms of semiosis (sign
transmission) that occur in psi phenomena.
As a member of the Theosophical Society, he is also interested in
exploring esoteric theories of the many dimensions of the body as they
manifest and represent parapsychological events, especially in
post-death phenomena. He has created his philosophical perspective of
ecstatic naturalism as an alternative to contemporary
metaphysical perspectives such as materialism on the one side and
process theology on the other. This perspective argues that nature is
all that there is and that there is nothing supernatural or in any way
discontinuous with other orders of the world. However, within this
capacious conception of nature, any and all events have a place or
ordinal location, regardless of how some of these events may be
understood (or misunderstood) in given paradigms. Hence, for
ecstatic naturalism, it follows that psi phenomena are fully
natural, only differently natural than those events that are often
privileged as being more "truly" natural, e.g., within a reductive
materialism. Ultimately, the goal of such interdisciplinary research
is to find some framework within which to exhibit and articulate the
generic features of the more regnant and meaningful events within the
one infinite nature.
