Description

Explore the complexities of Japanese thought with Japan's Frames of Meaning: A Hermeneutics Reader. Published by University of Hawaii Press, this scholarly work by Michael Marra offers a deep look into the interpretative concepts that define hermeneutical practices in Japan. While many discussions on Japanese thought focus on Western terms or specific Buddhist concepts, Marra provides a different perspective. He focuses on Japanese philosophers and thinkers who bridge these two worlds. By bringing their understanding of Western thought to bear on Japanese philosophy, these thinkers provide a unique lens through which to view interpretative traditions. This reader is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in Asian history and philosophy. It includes English translations of works on basic hermeneutics from major Japanese thinkers, making these foundational texts accessible to a wider audience. Whether you are studying the mediation between Western and Eastern ideas or looking for specific translations of Japanese philosophical works, this book serves as a comprehensive guide to the frames of meaning used in Japan.
