Chapter: Nāgārjuna’s Mūlamadhyamakakārikā: A Lonerganian Analysis

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.41585

Blurb:

The third chapter examines and reconstructs Nāgārjuna’s arguments in his seminal Mūlamadhyamakakārikā in which he examines the nature of śūnyatā. Jay Garfield’s translation from the Tibetan text and commentary is used to heighten the dialectic with Rahner’s argument. The Mūlamadhyamakakārikā is then parsed according to Lonergan’s epistemological and metaphysical structure.
