Kitaro Nishida – författare

An Inquiry into the Good represented the foundation of Nishida’s philosophy—reflecting both his deep study of Zen Buddhism and his thorough analysis of Western philosophy—and established its author as the foremost Japanese philosopher of this century. In this important new translation, two scholars—one Japanese and one American—have worked together to present a lucid and accurate rendition of Nishida’s ideas. "The translators do an admirable job of adhering to the cadence of the original while avoiding unidiomatic, verbatim constructions."—John C. Maraldo, Philosophy East and West"More accurate and critical than the first translation into English of Nishida's earliest book. . . . An important addition to library collections of twentieth-century philosophy, Japanese intellectual history, and contemporary Buddhist thought."—Choice  "A welcome new translation of a work by probably the most original and influential of modern Japanese philosophers."—Hidé Ishiguro, Times Literary Supplement  "Undoubtedly the most important work for anyone in the West interested in understanding modern Japanese thought. This work premiered Japanese philosophy as modern but has also shown unusual staying power. In the late twentieth century Japanese thinkers, both religious and secular, insist on its importance and relevance."—William R. La Fleur, University of Pennsylvania

Existe una filosofia oriental? Es posible una filosofia que dialogue en igualdad con Oriente y Occidente?Indagacion del bien es la primera gran sintesis de las concepciones filosoficas de ambas culturas. En esta obra imprescindible de la filosofia japonesa moderna, Kitaro Nishida articula un dialogo profundo entre las tradiciones orientales -especialmente el budismo zen- y la filosofia occidental.Con una actitud critica hacia Occidente y revisionista hacia Japon, Nishida va senalando similitudes y diferencias acudiendo en su ayuda a la autoridad de los grandes filosofos, orientales y occidentales, para arribar finalmente a conclusiones que senalan la busqueda comun del hombre. Esta obra, que consagro a Kitaro Nishida como el japones mas prominente del siglo XX, nos permite acceder al riquisimo mundo de la filosofia oriental (en especial, implicitamente, al budismo zen) y representar nuestros propios conceptos fundamentales desde la mirada del otro.
