Buddhismus: Handbuch Und Kritische Einfuhrung - Hardcover
Die Autoren bieten eine aktuelle Einfuhrung in die Geschichte und die vielfaltigen Lehren und Praktiken des Buddhismus. Es gibt einen Uberblick zur historischen Entwicklung des Buddhismus in Asien und dem Westen und behandelt im Anschluss diverse Themenkomplexe: buddhistische Sprachen und Texte, Weltbilder, religiose Praxis, Sozialformen, Staat und Politik, Okonomie, Kunst und Architektur, Modernisierung und Globalisierung, sowie die Interaktion mit anderen Religionen. Zahlreiche Beispiele illustrieren die Vielfalt der buddhistischen Haltungen zu diesen Fragen in Geschichte und Gegenwart. Dabei wird deutlich, dass das im Westen verbreitete positive Bild vom Buddhismus als einer friedfertigen, weltabgewandten und meditativen Erleuchtungslehre grosse und wichtige Bereiche dieser Religion ausblendet, z.B. die gesamte nicht-meditative religiose Praxis, interne Konflikte aller Art, wirtschaftliche und politische Interessen, Mission, die Verfolgung Andersglaubiger oder die religiose Rechtfertigung von Krieg und Gewalt. Oliver Freiberger und Christoph Kleine versuchen, anhand von Beispielen die reale und faszinierende Komplexitat des Buddhismus anzudeuten und damit das Interesse auch fur weniger populare, aber nicht minder bedeutsame Facetten dieser Religion zu wecken. Es bietet eine leserfreundliche und informative Einfuhrung, die den aktuellen Stand der Forschung reprasentiert.

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -In this volume the authors offer a modern introduction to the history and multilayered teachings and practices of Buddhism. It provides an overview of the historical development of Buddhism in both Asia and the Western hemisphere as well as treating a number of other subjects: the Buddhistic language and texts, its worldview, religious practices, social forms, views of government and politics, economics, art, architecture, modernisation and globalisation as well as its interactions with other religions. Numerous examples serve to illustrate the diversity of Buddhist tenets on matters of history and modern life. The volume shows that the widely held positive attitude in the West twoard Buddhism as teaching a peace-loving, detached and meditative enlightenment ignores many of the major and important areas of this world religion, for example, its large-scale nonmeditative religious practices, its internal conflicts, its economic and political interests, its history of persecuting those who dissent or its religious justification of war and aggression. Oliver Freiberger and Christoph Kleine provide many examples to illustrate the fascinating complexity of Buddhism and to arouse our interest in less popular, but no less important, facets of this religion. This is an easy-to-read introduction to the present state of research. 536 pp. Deutsch. Seller Inventory # 9783525500057
