The Virtue of Harmony

Angebote / Angebote:

In a time marked by profound polarization, this volume draws our attention to a virtue that is of key importance in many non-Western cultures but is largely neglected in modern Western thought: the virtue of harmony. The book comprises thirteen chapters that examine harmony from a particular cultural or disciplinary perspective. A broad variety of cultural traditions are represented, including the Confucian, Daoist, Buddhist, Judaist, Greek, Christian, Islamic, African, and Native American traditions, as well as different disciplinary approaches, such as philosophy, religious studies, linguistics, psychology, and political theory. This is the first book in English that has assembled such diversity of cultural and disciplinary perspectives on harmony in one place. It is suitable for general readers, students, as well as researchers interested in this flourishing topic of research.
