Author: Gopinath N. Sharma
Publisher: Kaveri Books
ISBN: 9788174790026
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Broadly Speaking The Term Tradition Has Mostly Sociological Aspects And To Some Extent Representation Of Nation S Cultural Heritage. In Fact No Tradition Can Afford To Remain Static. However, We Do Come Across Certain Age-Old Traditions Which Have Withstood The Onslaught Of The Imported Ideas. They Are Usually Religious And Philosophical. Even After Many Centuries Indian Philosophical Tradition Has Not Changed Its Stance, Though It Goes Without Saying Or Dispute That The Format Seems To Have Preferred Alternations. This Could Be Owing To The Pressing Need Of The Time And Though Meagrely, The Western-Eastern Cultural Cross Fertilization. The Credit Goes To The Modern Indian Thinkers And Philosophers For Having Created A New And Suitable Paradigm.

Contents Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: Traditions In The Vedic And Post-Vedic Periods; Chapter 3: Contemporary Indian Philosophers; Chapter 4: Conclusion.

Modern Frames and Premodern Themes in Indian Philosophy
Author: A. Raghuramaraju
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781138098411
Category : Philosophy, Indic
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
This book presents a fascinating examination of modern Indian philosophical thought from the margins. It considers the subject from two perspectives - how it has been understood beyond India and how Indian thinkers have treated Western ideas in the context of Indian society. The book discusses the concepts of the self, the other and the border that underline various debates on modernity. In this framework, it proposes the notion of the other as an enabler in taking cue from the lives of Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore. It focuses on the nature and compulsions of the colonised self and its response to the body of unfamiliar and sometimes oppressive ideas. The study traces these themes with allusion to the works of Edward Said, Frantz Fanon and Krishna Chandra Bhattacharyya and the Bhagavad Gita. The author exposes the limitations in existing theories of self, the incompatibility between the slavery of self and svaraj in ideas, how the pre-modern village intersects modern city and democracy, the radical challenges that confront society with its accumulated social evils, inequality, hierarchy, and the need for reform and non-violence. This engaging work will be of interest to scholars and researchers of Indian philosophy, social and political philosophy, Indian political theory, postcolonialism and South Asian studies.
