Publisher Description: (c) Chisokudō Publications, 2020 In dialogue with the Japanese philosopher Nishitani Keiji, the author explores the borderlands between Buddhist and Christian thought. A major breakthrough in Buddhist-Christian dialogue, Absolute Nothingness is a comparative study that attempts to relate the Kyoto School of Buddhist philosophy to the Christian tradition. Among the major questions treated in this book is that of spiritual emptiness as it is experienced in the traditions of East and West. The author brings to his book the skills of a theologian and the sensitivities of one who has studied Buddhism in Japan. Long out of print, this book (originally published in 1980), is reissued here in a facsimilie edition. . Also available as an Apple ibook. |
