Reading Eliot Deutsch on Comparative Philosophy
Celebrating Eliot Deutsch's project promoting understanding of Asian philosophical ideas among Westerners, these essays discuss and comment on his ideas. Topics covered in the essays include mysticism, aesthetics and truth. Also included are Deutch's own replies to the essays.
It was the editorial eye of Eliot Deutsch that made the journal Philosophy East and West the voice of comparative philosophy within the Western academy, challenging the entrenched provincialism of Anglo-American philosophy. In these essays, Deutsch's critics both praise and attack him, and he offers his thoughtful responses.
