Beskrivning
East Asian imagery resonates throughout Martin Heidegger’s writings. In this exploration of the connections between Daoism and his thought, an international team of scholars consider why the Daodejing and Zhuangzi were texts he returned to repeatedly and the extent Heidegger adhered to Daoism’s core doctrines.They discuss how Daoist thought provided him with a new perspective, equipping him with images, concepts, and meanings that enabled him to continue his questioning of the nature of being. Exploring the environment, language, death, temporality, aesthetics, and race from the groundlessness of non-being, oneness, and the Way, they illustrate how these themes reverberate with ontological, spiritual, and epistemological potential.A lesson in the art of Daoist and cross-cultural ways of thinking, this collection marks the first sustained analysis of the influence of classical Daoism on a major 20th-century German philosopher.

There were three legendary philosophical meetings with Laozi in history. The first one was the meeting of Confucius with Laozi. The second was that of Buddha with Laozi, while the third one and the latest one should be that of Heidegger with Laozi and Daoism. Papers collected here in this book are devoted to an in-depth discussion of Heidegger's relationship with Laozi and philosophical Daoism. It is another significant step toward a thoughtful dialogue between the two great cultural traditions in the west and east after the publication of Graham Parkes’s book “Heidegger and Asian Thought” more than 30 years ago. Important themes such as “thing,” “language,” “death,” “identity” “art,” “interality,” and “nationhood” etc. are explored and discussed from a comparative perspective. They will stimulate readers to deep and to further their understanding of both Heidegger and Daoism.
