Description

Comparative Philosophy without Borders presents original scholarship by leading contemporary comparative philosophers. Each contributor addresses a philosophical issue that transcends cultural boundaries, critically discussing and weaving together their ideas in terms of their underlying presuppositions. This cutting-edge volume breaks new ground by exploring the intersection of different philosophical traditions, historical periods, and sub-disciplines. The editors argue that the discipline now needs to enter a new phase, drawing on philosophical thought and textual sources from Eurasia and Africa to discuss modern approaches to the nature of mind, perception, poetry, justice, authority, and understanding others. By fusing horizons of traditions, this book opens up space for creative conceptual thinking outside established boxes. It demonstrates how drawing on resources from across cultural traditions can produce sound, progressive philosophy.
