Loading... Beyond Orientalism: Essays on Cross-Cultural Encounter (edition 1996)by Fred R. DallmayrOne essay on comparative philosophy was relatively interesting in this collection, but the other ones were not. The author's fascination with phenomenological and postmodern philosophy renders his writing incomprehensible for the most part. He has an annoying habit of putting strange expressions in "scare quotes" without indicating whom he is quoting. It also seems as if he seeks to reconcile the most obscure parts of western and eastern thought with each other. Needless to say, the result is confusing. |
