DESCRIPTION:Gastvortrag auf Englisch von Assoc.-Prof. Dr. Roy Tzohar (Tel 
 Aviv University) \n\nBuddhist philosophy is fundamentally ambivalent towa
 rd language\, paradoxically seen as both obstructive and necessary for lib
 eration. As a case study\, this talk will present the ingenious response t
 o this tension from the Yogācāra school of Indian Buddhism\, arguing tha
 t all language-use is metaphorical. Exploring the profound implications of
  this claim\, as well as its broader Indian scholastic context\, Tzohar wi
 ll make the case for viewing the Yogācāra account as a full-fledged theo
 ry of meaning\, one that is not merely linguistic\, but also applicable bo
 th in the world as well as in texts.\n\nDer Gastvortrag ist hochschulöffe
 ntlich und findet online statt. Um die Einwahldaten zu erhalten\, bitte ce
