Henry More (; 12 October 1614 – 1 September 1687) was an English philosopher, theologian, and poet, associated with the Cambridge Platonists. He sought to reconcile Platonism with Christian theology and responded critically to Cartesian philosophy. His metaphysical writings addressed the nature of spirit, matter, divine providence, and the soul, and he was a prominent voice in seventeenth-century religious and philosophical debates. More rejected Cartesian dualism, arguing that spirit, like matter, must be extended in space. Read more on Wikipedia
