Instance Specification Ground Motive (Dooyeweerd)
"A ground motive is a spiritual driving force that impels each thinker to interpret reality under its influence. Dooyeweerd identified four major ground-motives of Western thought, three of them dualistic in nature:
the Form-Matter divide of Greek thought
the Creation-Fall-Redemption motive of Biblical (Hebrew, Semitic) thought
the Nature-Grace divide of mediaeval, Scholastic thought
the Nature-Freedom divide of humanistic, Enlightenment thought
This means that theoretical thought never has been neutral or autonomous of the thinker."
