The Question of Being in Western and African Analytic Metaphysics

Comparative Metaphysics Using the Analytic Framework

Viac o knihe

Exploring the question of being, this book contrasts Western and African philosophical perspectives through analytic metaphysics. It examines two main views: one focusing on language structure with subjects, objects, and relations, and the other emphasizing a dynamic, holistic understanding of being through verbs. Key metaphysical concepts such as space-time, causation, and the mind-body relationship are analyzed. The text highlights the universal nature of philosophy while acknowledging cultural differences and the impact of language on conceptualizing existence. Additionally, it introduces innovative African models of space and time.
