Islamic Philosophy and Occidental Phenomenology in Dialogue Gebunden

The contributions composed in this volume are inspired not only by the necessity but also by the potentialities of a process which continues and deepens cross-cultural understanding especially between Islamic and Western philosophy. Following the tradition of an East-Western symphony of thoughts the authors focus on common horizons and while applying comparative and historical approaches varieties of unity appear on the ways towards a New Enlightenment. The creative force orchestrating the harmony in the web of Life communicates in the mean time with the capacities of human beings adva ncing in deciphering its micro-macrocosmic dimensions. Here the encounter of the Logos of Life Philosophy (A-T. Tymieniecka) and Islamic Philosophy open the space for constructive disputation. In the wake of the crisis of postmodern unknowability paths towards a new critique of reason go hand in hand with fundamental issues being reflected newly.
