Views from Tibet
Studies on Tibetan Buddhist Logic, the Philosophy of the Middle, and the Indigenous Grammatico-Linguistic Tradition
by Tom J.F. Tillemans
“Views from Tibet” is a collection of T. Tillemans’s articles in three main subject areas: Tibetan Buddhist logic, the philosophy of the middle, and indigenous Tibetan writing analyzing the structure of the Tibetan language. The previously published articles have been updated and revised. The last chapter is new. Understanding Tibetan views presupposes a relatively sophisticated Indological understanding, and these papers therefore make frequent zigzags to Indian canonical texts, where possible in Sanskrit. Implications for comparative philosophy, logic, and linguistics are also explored. The book should thus be of interest to specialists in Buddhist studies, Tibetologists, and philosophers and linguists with an interest in East-West comparative studies. Some chapters provide translations of important Tibetan texts.
