Scriptural Authority, Reason and Action: Proceedings of a Panel at the 14th World Sanskrit Conference, Kyoto, September 1st-5th, 2009 (Osterreichische ... Kultur- Und Geistesgeschichte Asiens NR. 79) - Softcover
Synopsis
Der vorliegende Band ist das Ergebnis des Panels "Scriptural Authority and Apologetics in the Indian Religio-Philosophical Environment", das im Rahmen der 14. World Sanskrit Conference (Kyoto, 2. September 2009) stattfand. Er enthalt elf Aufsatze von SpezialistInnen auf den Gebieten des Mahayana-Buddhismus (P. Skilling, R. Walser), buddhistischer Epistemologie (V. Eltschinger, H. Krasser, S. Moriyama, S. McClintock), Jainismus (P. Balcerowicz), Mima?sa und fruher Vedanta (K. Kataoka, H. David) sowie der Pratyabhijna-Philosophie (I. Ratie, R. Torella). Die Themen der Aufsatze reichen dabei von verschiedenen symbolischen, asthetischen und institutionellen Mitteln schriftlicher Autorisierung (die lange Zunge des Buddhas, die Gebetskanzel) zu Rational-Choice-Theorien in ethisch-soteriologischen Angelegenheiten, von "Inklusivismus" zu der Kritik an konkurrierenden Anspruchen auf die Wahrnehmung des Ubersinnlichen. Neben detaillierten Beitragen zu kaum erforschten Bereichen der indischen Philosophie liefert dieser Band beispiellose Einblicke in die Vielfalt, Bestandigkeit und strukturelle Homogenitat der indischen Untersuchungen zu Legitimitat und Modalitat religioser Autoritat und schriftlicher Zeugnisse. Ebenso offenbart er, dass religioser Pluralismus und Wettbewerb grosse Auswirkungen auf das Wesen und die Ziele indischer Philosophie haben.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The present volume is the outcome of the panel "Scriptural Authority and Apologetics in the Indian Religio-Philosophical Environment" held in the framework of the 14th World Sanskrit Conference (Kyoto, September 2, 2009). It contains eleven essays by specialists in the fields of Mahayana Buddhism (P. Skilling, R. Walser), Buddhist epistemology (V. Eltschinger, H. Krasser, S. Moriyama, S. McClintock), Jainism (P. Balcerowicz), Mimamsa and early Vedanta (K. Kataoka, H. David), and Pratyabhijna philosophy (I. Ratie, R. Torella). The topics dealt with range from different symbolic, esthetic and institutional means of scriptural authorization (the long tongue of the Buddha, the preaching dais) to theories of rational choice in ethical-soteriological matters, from "inclusivism" to the critique of competing claims to the perception of the supersensible. Besides presenting in-depth contributions on little studied areas of Indian philosophy, this volume sheds unprecedented light on the diversity, persistence and structural homogeneity of the philosophers enquiries into the legitimacy and the modalities of religious authority and scriptural testimony. It also bears witness to the strong impact of religious pluralism and competition on the nature and the agenda of Indian philosophy Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
