Opis

Drawing on Zen as well as on Nietzsche s thought and its ramifications in and for Western culture, this book is a fervent call for a re-visioning of philosophy as vocation. The author is critical of the status quo and committed to intellectual integrity; the result is a creative and adventurous enterprise that is no longer exclusively identified with academia or with the methodology of logic. The philosophy and the psychology of European Zen advocated by in "Buddha is Dead" is an unconditional affirmation of living-and-dying and is an extraordinary fertile viewpoint that will be appreciated by all those who are interested in Eastern philosophy and religions, and who seek life-affirming wisdom."
