Resumen de Daoist Resonances in Heidegge: Exploring a Forgotten Debt
“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.” ―Qingjie James Wang, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, University of Macau, Macau “The time is ripe for Daoist Resonances in Heidegger. The chapters in this book are profound explorations of the explicit and implicit connections between Heidegger's thought and the two foundational texts of the Daoist tradition-connections that are replete with vital contributions to our still dawning age of cross-cultural philosophy.” ―Bret W. Davis, Professor and Higgins Chair in Philosophy, Loyola University Maryland, USA
