New Studies in Indian and Comparative Philosophy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781966214069)

New Studies in Indian and Comparative Philosophy presents innovative research on pivotal themes in Indian philosophy that have often been misinterpreted or overlooked. It illuminates key ideas through fresh perspectives and critical analyses, offering a richer understanding of their global significance. In addition to new explorations of Indian philosophical concepts, the book investigates how Western thinkers-including Schopenhauer, Simone Weil, and others-engaged deeply with Indian thought. These cross-cultural forays are thoroughly evaluated, highlighting both the Western philosophers' enduring interest in Indian philosophy and the broader intellectual dialogues that arise from such engagements. The result is a thought-provoking volume that underscores the continuing relevance of Indian philosophy in contemporary global discourse.
