    Religiöse, philosophische und theologische Perspektiven auf das Selbst variieren. Für manche ist das Selbst das Zentrum menschlichen Person, der ultimative Träger der eigenen Identität und das innerste Geheimnis der menschlichen Existenz. Für andere ist das Selbst ein grammatikalischer Fehler und die Rede vom Selbst eine existentielle und erkenntnistheoretische Täuschung. In der westlichen Psychologie, Philosophie und Theologie wird der Begriff 'Selbst' oft als ein Substantiv verwendet, welches sich nicht auf die Ausübung eine Tätigkeit oder auf einen materiellen Körper per se bezieht, sondern eher auf einen (gegenderten) Organismus, der etwas über seine Materialität hinausgehendes repräsentiert. Dieser Sammelband dokumentiert eine kritische und konstruktive Debatte zwischen Kritikern und Verfechtern des Selbst oder des Nicht-Selbst, die die interkulturellen Dimensionen dieses wichtigen Themas erforscht.InhaltsübersichtPreface Ingolf U.

For some the self is seen as the center of human personhood, the ultimate bearer of personal identity and the core mystery of human existence. For others the self is a grammatical error and the sense of self an existential and epistemic delusion. Buddhists contrast the Western understanding of the self as a function of the mind that helps us to organize our experiences to their view of no-self by distinguishing between no-self and not-self or between a solid or 'metaphysical' self that is an illusion and an experiential or psychological self that is not. There may be processes of 'selfing', but there is no permanent self. In Western psychology, philosophy, and theology, on the other hand, the term 'self' is often used as a noun that refers not to the performance of an activity or to a material body per se but rather to a (gendered) organism that represents the presence of something distinct from its materiality. Is this a defensible insight or a misleading representation of human experience? We are aware of ourselves in the first-person manner of our ipse -identity that cannot fully be spelled out in objectifying terms, but we also know ourselves in the third-person manner of our idem -identity, the objectified self-reference to a publicly available entity. This volume documents a critical and constructive debate between critics and defenders of the self or of the no-self that explores the intercultural dimensions of this important topic.Survey of contentsPreface Ingolf U.

    Negativität ist kein negatives Phänomen, sondern allgegenwärtig im menschlichen Leben und Denken. Ohne sie können Kontingenz und Andersartigkeit, Subjektivität und Macht, Transzendenz und Immanenz im menschlichen Leben und in der menschlichen Kultur nicht verstanden werden. Der vorliegende Band untersucht Formen der Negativität in zentralen religiösen, theologischen und philosophischen Traditionen des westlichen, buddhistischen und koreanischen Denkens.InhaltsübersichtIngolf U.

Without it, contingency and otherness, subjectivity and power, transcendence and immanence and other manifestations of the pluriform dynamics between signifier, signified and meaning in human life and culture cannot be understood. This volume explores the significance of negativity in Western and Eastern thought in four central areas: in the traditions of negative theology in the West; in the dialectics of negativity in the wake of Hegel and in existential philosophy; in versions of negative dialectics and negative hermeneutics in the 20th century; and in Buddhist thought about emptiness, Korean philosophies of nothingness, and the similarities and differences between the mystical traditions of the East and the West. Together, the four parts outline a panorama of questions, positions, and approaches that must be explored by anyone who wants to address questions of negativity in the context of contemporary philosophical, theological, ethical, and existential challenges.Survey of contentsIngolf U.
