Ralph Vunderink received his education partly in the Netherlands, where he was introduced
to the classical languages of Greek and Latin and the modern languages of French,
German and English. In the U.S. he completed his Ph.D. program in the interdisciplinary
subject of theology-philosophy at the University of Chicago. He started out his career
as a philosophy teacher at Lakeland College (Wis.) and the University of Detroit.
He decided to switch to theology at Hope College and Winebrenner Seminary (OH). Since
1994 he has been associated with ÂÌñÒùÆÞ as an adjunct professor in philosophy,
and since 1999 in the Department of Humanities. Having published in the fields of
both philosophy and religion, he is presently working on content dealing with three
underlying themes in Western culture as they express themselves in philosophy, religion,
art, and literature.
