| 本书作者试图寻求和发展一个能使东西方思想产生共鸣的主题, 超越文化和时代界限来阐释它.
书中论述了那些通常的和 “东西方相会” 相关的 “方法论问题”, 儒教和康德哲学, 海德格尔, 威特根斯坦和东方思想,
以及一些著名的主题如全盘个人主义和多数主义. 本书还考察了东方思想(特别是儒教和道教)和实用主义(特别是罗蒂). 最后一部分介绍了朝鲜哲学和一些重要的朝鲜哲学家.
In East and West: Fusion of Horizons, Kwang-Sae Lee seeks
to find and develop themes of mutual resonance in Eastern
and Western thoughts, trying to interpret across boundaries
of culture and age.
The book discusses some general “methodological problems”
pertaining to the “Meeting of East and West,”
Confucianism and Kantian moral philosophy, Heidegger, Wittgenstein
and Eastern thought, and outstanding themes such as social
practice theory, holistic individualism and pluralism. It
also examines Eastern thought (Confucianism and Taoism in
particular) and pragmatism (Rorty in particular). The last
part introduces Korean philosophy and some important Korean
philosophers.
Lee believes that there is vital need for reassessing the
eminent relevance of revitalized East Asian culture(s) to
the contemporary world. It is with this conviction that he
has written this important and timely book.
