Abstract | For a number of centuries Indian philosophers of all persuasions
were convinced that there was a particularly close connection
between language and reality, also, or even primarily, between
sentences and the situations they describe. This shared conviction
was responsible for a perceived problem. Different currents in
Indian philosophy can be understood as different attempts to solve
this problem; these include the satkāryavāda of the Sāṃkhyas, the
anekāntavāda of the Jainas, the ?ūnyavāda of the Buddhists, and many
others. By bringing to light the shared problem underlying almost
all schools of Indian philosophy, this book shows the
interconnectedness of currents that had hitherto been thought of as
quite independent of each other. |
