In this collection of original essays, international scholars put
Asian traditions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, and
Confucianism, into conversation with one or more contemporary
feminist philosophies, founding a new mode of inquiry that attends
to diverse voices and the complex global relationships that define
our world. These cross-cultural meditations focus on the liberation
of persons from suffering, oppression, illusion, harmful
conventions and desires, and other impediments to full personhood
by deploying a methodology that traverses multiple philosophical
styles, historical texts, and frames of reference. Hailing from the
discipline of philosophy in addition to Asian, gender, and
religious studies, the contributors offer a fresh take on the
classic concerns of free will, consciousness, knowledge,
objectivity, sexual difference, embodiment, selfhood, the state,
morality, and hermeneutics. One of the first anthologies to embody
the practice of feminist comparative philosophy, this collection
creatively and effectively engages with global, cultural, and
gender differences within the realms of scholarly inquiry and
theory construction.
