This is an essential book for anyone interested in the Eastern Syriac Christian Church, and the manner in which the region was eventually subsumed by Islam. But this is only the later books of the chronicle, and so the earlier book are still only available in Latin.

Heidegger"s Hidden Sources: East-Asian Influences on his Work

Heidegger"s Hidden Sources: East-Asian Influences on his Work by Reinhard May


1996 | ISBN: 0415140374, 0415140382 | English | 144 pages | EPUB | 2 MB

Heidegger"s Hidden Sources documents for the first time Heidegger"s remarkable debt to East Asian philosophy. In this groundbreaking study, Reinhard May shows conclusively that Martin Heidegger borrowed some of the major ideas of his philosophy – on occasion almost word for word – from German translations of Chinese Daoist and Zen Buddhist classics.


The discovery of this astonishing appropriation of non-Western sources will have important consequences for future interpretations of Heidegger"s work. Moreover, it shows Heidegger as a pioneer of comparative philosophy and transcultural thinking.
