Inhalt:
"Crossing continents and traveling through the centuries, Key Concepts in World Philosophies brings together over 30 of the core ideas associated with the major Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Islamic, African, Ancient Greek and modern European philosophers. What connects these foundational ideas is the universal theme of transformation: how has each concept sought to change our way of understanding the world we live in or the life we are living? From Socratic logos and Chinese xin to reason in 18th-century Germany and equity in Islamic thought, an international team of experts cover a diverse set of ideas and theories originating from thinkers such as Kant, Confucius, Buddha, Dogen, Nietzsche, Zhuangzi, Hegel and Husserl. Divided into three sections organised around the major themes of knowledge, metaphysics, and aesthetics, each short chapter provides an introductory overview with contextual background, supported by discussion questions and further reading suggestions. Beginning with an introduction that explains how these concepts can be used as tools in contexts outside of their own, this one-of-a-kind study guide allows you to read philosophical texts from all over the world, understand how to practice cross-cultural philosophy and find out how philosophical ideas can be applied to your own life."--
