Guided by this philosophical method known as the “epoché”, or suspension of judgement in ancient Greek, it is an introduction to the philosophy and practice of letting objects in the world speak for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by Nishida Kitaro’s insight that true reality is beyond the subject-object duality, the book uses a series of examples and exercises to explore the background to Husserl’s idea of the phenomenological epoché, Hans-Georg Gadamer’s emphasis on play in human understanding, and the haiku poet Matsuo Basho's call for a new level of freedom. This practice-oriented approach moves beyond the traditional East-West divide. It connects various traditions, old and new, contemplative and theoretical, and explains why Japanese philosophy and phenomenology can enrich the quality of our lived experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000649335020,"sku":"9781350298286","price":93.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/20895143482668.jpg?v=1763293521"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/collections\/steven-a-tainer.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
