About this course

This course looks at the ways in which twentieth-century thinkers--especially figures associated with the Kyoto School such as Nishida Kitaro, Watsuji Tetsuro, and Kimura Bin--appropriated and transformed the intellectual heritage of premodern Asian philosophy by articulating classical metaphysical and ontological positions in novel ways and by developing creative responses to questions about ethical life and about the nature of the self. Satisfies the following distribution requirement(s) for Philosophy: Ethics & Values, Knowledge & Reality, History of Philosophy.
