More about the book
Nishida Kitaro's philosophical journey highlights the challenge of reconciling Zen with Western thought, revealing a profound conceptual incommensurability. This comparative philosophy work explores the ramifications of his metaphysics across ethics, aesthetics, and the philosophy of religion, particularly addressing pluralism. It critically examines whether the stark differences between Zen and Western philosophies allow for a fully rational choice between them, ultimately questioning the nature of understanding across divergent intellectual traditions.
