Matthew I Robertson: Puruṣa, Gebunden

Klappentext

Purüa: Personhood in Ancient India is a study of what ancient Indian traditions say about personhood. It describes a way of thinking that suggests that persons are deeply confluent with the world and indistinguishable from their environments. Dealing with classic works and addressing the fields of religion, politics, philosophy, medicine, and literature, this book brings ancient India into a new light, giving readers a novel perspective on what it means to be a person and what it means to be in the world.
