De-liberating Traditions /Goswami, Namita --Feminist Comparative Philosophy and Associated Methodologies --Contributors --IndexIn this collection of original essays, international scholars put Asian traditions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism, into conversation with one or more contemporary feminist philosophies, founding a new mode of inquiry that attends to diverse voices and the complex global relationships that define our world. These cross-cultural meditations focus on the liberation of persons from suffering, oppression, illusion, harmful conventions and desires, and other impediments to full personhood by deploying a methodology that traverses multiple philosophical styles, historical texts, and frames of reference. Hailing from the discipline of philosophy in addition to Asian, gender, and religious studies, the contributors offer a fresh take on the classic concerns of free will, consciousness, knowledge, objectivity, sexual difference, embodiment, selfhood, the state, morality, and hermeneutics. One of the first anthologies to embody the practice of feminist comparative philosophy, this collection creatively and effectively engages with global, cultural, and gender differences within the realms of scholarly inquiry and theory construction.Feminist theory -- AsiaFeminist theoryPhilosophy, AsianElectronic books.Feminist theory -- Asia.Feminist theory.Philosophy, Asian.305.4201095Butnor AshbyMcWeeny JenniferDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910465168903321Asian and Feminist Philosophies in Dialogue2457804UNINA
