Over dit product

Product Information

Philosophy of The Bhagavad Gita: A Contemporary Introduction presents a complete philosophical guide and new translation of the most celebrated text of Hinduism. While usually treated as mystical and religious poetry, this new translation focuses on the philosophy underpinning the story of a battle between two sets of cousins of the Aryan clan. Designed for use in the classroom, this lively and readable translation: - Situates the text in its philosophical and cultural contexts - Features summaries and chapter analyses and questions at the opening and end of each of the eighteen chapters encouraging further study - Highlights points of comparison and overlap between Indian and Western philosophical concepts and themes such as just war, care ethics, integrity and authenticity - Includes a glossary allowing the reader to determine the meaning of central concepts Written with clarity and without presupposing any prior knowledge of Hinduism, Philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita: A Contemporary Introduction reveals the importance and value of reading the Gita philosophically.

Reviews
Maitra deserves much praise for a translation that will be widely appealing to a reader at any level of familiarity with the BG or its yogic dialogues. Her willingness to engage the text's visionary potential ... and its philosophical underpinnings ... takes rare skill and a keen awareness of textual nuances., The book is a valuable contribution not just for the teacher and her student in a classroom, but for anyone who seeks a simple introduction to this ancient text., In her lucid and student-friendly translation of the Bhagavad Gita , Maitra has uniquely and cogently reclaimed the centrality of the yoga of knowledge alongside karma and devotion through her astute philosophical eye. The introduction exemplifies Maitra's sharply refined ability to tack gracefully between South Asian and Eurocentric philosophical and ethical concepts in a finely woven integrative approach that allows students to engage this transglobal text with clarity. The "philosopher's corner" feature at the end of each chapter challenges students to query culturally diverse interpretations of agency, logic, ethics, and epistemology, making this translation my new top choice for pedagogical use.
