The famous scholar Deng Xiaomang compiled his many years of philosophical research into a volume, which is divided into five parts: "General Introduction", "Greek Philosophy", "Kant's Philosophy", "Hegel's Philosophy" and "Contemporary Phenomenological Philosophy". The content involves many focused issues in ancient Greek philosophy, modern and modern Western philosophy. For example, some articles trace the origin of Western natural law thought and lead to Kant's traditional concept of natural law. The transformation ultimately comes down to morality; some articles provide a relatively comprehensive combing of the etymology, semantics and usage of important terms in Heidegger's later philosophy... The author mirrors China and the West, and complements history and philosophy, presenting readers with a new perspective of Chinese scholars in the study of German classical philosophy and Marxist philosophy, which will help those who are new to philosophy appreciate the charm of thought and gain a glimpse of the secrets of philosophy.
Reader comments
This book is like a key that opened the door to my curiosity about Western philosophy. The author's explanations are profound and simple, allowing me, a layman in philosophy, to appreciate the mysteries. The content in the book triggered my thinking about life, and also reminded me of the confusions my friends around me face when pursuing true love. Philosophy, like love, requires us to constantly explore and think in order to find our own answers.
