  1. The Western Image of Chinese Religion From Leibniz To De Groot.R. J. Zwi Werblowsky - 1986 - Diogenes 34 (133):113-121.
    It is not the purpose of this short essay to try the impossible and give an adequate historical survey of the Western image (or rather images) of China. There is, moreover, a vast literature on the subject to which both sinologists and historians of European culture have contributed. The following paragraphs will restrict themselves to two poles in this history: the perception and reception of China in the 17th century (with Leibniz as the most significant and impressive representative of the (...)

  2. Crisis Consciousness and the Future: The Future of Religion, the Future of Mankind, the Dialogue of Religions.R. J. Zwi Werblowsky - 1981 - Diogenes 29 (113-114):55-69.
    Like Caesar's Gaul, my essay is divided into three parts, according to the subjects mentioned in the subtitle. The “crisis consciousness” of the main title forms less a subdivision of the essay than a leitmotif accompanying all the parts as well as the whole.

    (1 other version)China Open - China Closed.R. J. Zwi Werblowsky - 1994 - Diogenes 42 (167):1-13.
    Forbidden areas, i.e. areas (sites, cities, countries) that are inaccessible for topographical reasons or especially because of decisions based on political, religious, or other motivations are usually surrounded by an aura of mystery and almost necessarily arouse curiosity. The dream of generations of explorers was to reach Lhasa. An area can be closed not only to outsiders but also to “insiders:” nobody is allowed to leave for the “outside.” The isolation imposed on Japan by the Tokugawa regime was such a (...)

  8. Contacts of Continents: the Silk Road.R. J. Zwi Werblowsky - 1988 - Diogenes 36 (144):52-64.
    The problems and the history of contacts between distant continents in bygone ages and long before the age of fast and easy travel, have always fascinated both professional scholars and the interested public. Was ancient history really nothing but the history of co-existing and isolated geographic, cultural and political “islands?” Already at school we learned too much about migrations of peoples, economic contacts, influences on art styles, conquests, and the rise, expansion and fall of empires to believe that. The (highly (...)
