| Résumé: | Reading Bhatta Jayanta on Buddhist Nominalism engages with an ancient Indian philosophical theory, called the ?exclusion theory? (apoha), which was developed by Indian Buddhists from the fifth century of the common era onward. This theory attempts to explain what universals really are and how they are known, yet without accepting that any two real things are identical with each other, or even similar to each other, in any substantial sense. The manifold philosophical problems arising from this seemingly self-contradictory position, and the Buddhist?s ingenious solution to it, exercised most schools of Indian thought for more than seven centuries and caused the Buddhists to continuously refine their theory. 0The book bases its investigation of the apoha theory on the succinct and accessible discussion of it found in the Nyayamañjari, a text by the accomplished author and Nyaya philosopher Bhatta Jayanta who flourished late in the ninth century of the common era The Nyāyamañjarī on Buddhist nominalism -- A critical edition of Bhatta Jayanta's Nyāyamañjarī / Kei Kataoka -- The Apoha section of the Nyāyamañjarī / Alex Watson and Kei Kataoka -- The qualifier-qualificand relation and coreferentiality / Hideyo Ogawa -- On vyāvṛtta / Pascale Hugon -- On Śākyabuddhi's interpretation of the Apoha theory / Kensho Okada -- The introductory verse of Dharmottara's Apohaprakarana / Hisataka Ishida -- Dharmottara's notion of āropita / Kei Kataoka -- Understanding a philosophical text / Elisa Freschi & Artemij Keidan -- Competing theories of conceptual cognition / Patrick McAllister |
