DESCRIPTION:At one time, there was lively dialogue
  between Western and Eastern philosophy. Schopenha
 uer, Nietzsche and William James were strongly inf
 luenced by Eastern philosophy. But, during recent 
 years, Western philosophy has shown much less resp
 ect for the East than previous and there seems les
 s awareness that issues like epistemology, time, a
 nd selfhood have been addressed very intelligently
  in the East.   The purpose of the conference is t
 o reinvigorate the dialog between Eastern and West
 ern philosophy (philosophy as distinct from religi
 on), and a galaxy of brilliant speakers from all o
 ver the globe have agreed to participate.   For mo
 re information, see http://web.cs.gc.cuny.edu/~kgb
