The anthology
Alternative Standpoints: A Tribute to Kalidas Bhattacharyya is a tribute to
Prof. Kalidas Bhattacharyya, the eminent thinker of twentieth-century India,
on his birth centenary by his students. A distinguished philosopher and an
academician, Prof. Bhattacharyya presented philosophy in an original way with
scientific spirit. He was essentially a metaphysician and his metaphysics was
deeply rooted in the traditions of Advaita Vedanta and Shaivism. His ultimate
concern was to present a theory of freedom and a theory of the possibility of
realizing that freedom. In this collection eminent scholars have written on different aspects of his philosophy. This anthology is divided into four parts – the first one concentrating on his metaphysics, the second part dealing with his views on freedom, the third one with education and science and the fourth one is a reminiscence of his student and his family members. In short this anthology tries to present a picture of Kalidas Bhattacharyya as a philosopher and also as a man within the two covers. This volume is expected to familiarize students and present-day philosophers the persona of Prof. Bhattacharyya and his philosophical positioning and pedagogical skillset. |
