Description
The Philosophy of Zen Buddhism by Byung-Chul Han offers a unique exploration of this ancient Buddhist tradition. This short book delves into the foundations of Far Eastern thought, comparing and contrasting the insights of Zen Buddhism with Western philosophical ideas.
By examining the philosophies of Plato, Leibniz, Fichte, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, and others, Han sheds light on the distinct ways in which Zen Buddhism understands key concepts such as religion, subjectivity, emptiness, friendliness, and death.
This thought-provoking work will be of great value to anyone interested in comparative philosophy and religion, providing a fresh perspective on the intersection of Eastern and Western ideas.
