Summary: | Behandelter Zeitraum: 6. Jh. v. Chr. - 1990 The author takes a critical look at the article of A. Herman published in this issue of the journal. Jackson questions the appropriateness of reading Indian thought through the categories of reason and emotion. He argues that cross-cultural comparative philosophy has been shaped by people who were Western either by birth or by training and that as a result, the categories and concerns that have provided the main agenda for comparative philosophy are Western.
