The book attempts to configure the distinctive and enduring reflective ethos of Sanskrit traditions - an ethos which barely receives attention in the prevailing approaches to these reflective traditions.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This book explores the possibility of using Sanskrit as a basis for rethinking human thought and reflection, challenging the dominance of European intellectual traditions. Sanskrit, with its vast historical spread across Central, South, and Southeast Asia, as well as Europe, offers a unique reflective idiom that contrasts with the European conceptual frameworks that still dominate contemporary thinking in areas such as language, art, reason, justice, and politics. The book argues that European thinkers, despite acknowledging a shared linguistic root with Sanskrit (Indo-European), have followed a very different intellectual path, one that has historically been violent and continues to fuel contemporary conflicts.In contrast, Sanskrit's long history of coexistence with diverse languages, cultures, and polities offers alternative possibilities for understanding justice and coexistence in today's globalized world. By comparing the reflective traditions of Sanskrit with European philosophical and linguistic categories, the book seeks to demonstrate how Sanskrit offers a more inclusive, less confrontational model for engaging with the world.The book engages with Sanskrit texts, European philosophers, and language theorists to substantiate its claims. It argues that such a cross-cultural examination, which brings together the reflective traditions of both heritages, is necessary for a new kind of intellectual inquiryone that moves beyond the entrenched paradigms of European thought and opens up new possibilities for coexistence and understanding. The book attempts to configure the distinctive and enduring reflective ethos of Sanskrit traditions an ethos which barely receives attention in the prevailing approaches to these reflective traditions.
