Description
Heidegger on Eastern/Asian Thought provides a comprehensive analysis of Martin Heidegger’s relationship with Eastern and Asian philosophical traditions. This volume investigates how Heidegger encountered, interpreted, and engaged with Asian thought, particularly Daoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism.
Lin Ma explores the complex intersections between Heidegger’s phenomenology and hermeneutics with Eastern philosophical frameworks. The study examines both Heidegger’s explicit references to Asian thought and the implicit influences that shaped his philosophical development. Ma demonstrates how Heidegger’s later work increasingly engaged with questions that resonate with Asian philosophical concerns, including the nature of being, language, and human existence.
This element offers scholars and students of Heidegger and comparative philosophy a nuanced understanding of cross-cultural philosophical dialogue and the ways Western and Eastern traditions can inform each other’s critical inquiries into fundamental metaphysical and epistemological questions.
