Japanese and Continental Philosophy: Conversations with the Kyoto School

Recognizing the importance of the Kyoto School and its influence on
philosophy, politics, religion, and Asian studies, Japanese and Continental
Philosophy initiates a conversation between Japanese and Western philosophers. The
essays in this cross-cultural volume put Kyoto School thinkers in conversation with
German Idealism, Nietzsche, phenomenology, and other figures and schools of the
continental tradition such as Levinas and Irigaray. Set in the context of global
philosophy, this volume offers critical, innovative, and productive dialogue between
some of the most influential philosophical figures from East and West.
