Intercultural Phenomenology explores the nature of reality by
engaging in a cross-cultural dialogue between two of the most
influential philosophical traditions of the 20th century. Drawing
on ideas from phenomenology, Japanese philosophy and Zen Buddhism,
it follows the philosophers who changed their perception of the
world by choosing to suspend judgement. Guided by this
philosophical method known as the “epoché”, or suspension of
judgment in ancient Greek, it is an introduction to the philosophy
and practice of letting objects in the world speak for themselves.
Inspired by Nishida Kitaro’s insight that true reality is beyond
the subject-object duality, the book uses a series of examples
and exercises to explore the background to Husserl’s idea of the
phenomenological epoché, Hans-Georg Gadamer’s emphasis on play
in human understanding and the haiku poet Matsuo Basho's call for a
new level of freedom. This practice-oriented approach moves beyond
the traditional East-West divide. It connects various traditions,
old and new, contemplative and theoretical, and explains why
Japanese philosophy and phenomenology can enrich the quality of our
lived experience.
