superject (plural superjects)

  1. (philosophy) The emergent actual occasion from which value is abstracted.
    • 1925, Alfred North Whitehead, Science and the Modern World, →ISBN:
      Thus the eternal relatedness is of the form — the είδος —; the emergent actual occasion is the superject of informed value; value, as abstracted from any particular superject, is the abstract matter — the ϋλη — which is common to all actual occasions and the synthetic activity which prehends valueless possibility into superjicient informed value is the substantial activity.
