Temporality and personal identity in the thought of Nishida Kitaro
Philosophy East and West 52 (2):224-245 (2002)
| Abstract | The Euro-American philosophical traditions offer two extreme positions to the problem of identity over time: G. W. Leibniz' essentialism and Derek Parfit's reductionism. A third alternative conception of personal identity is presented here, more appropriately named personal nonduality, which is based on Nishida Kitarō's conception of personal unity as nonrelative contradictory self-identity | |||||||||
