Description:

On Voidness: A Study on Buddhist Nihilism by Fernando Tola and Carmen Dragonetti examines the Mādhyamika school's concept of śūnyatā (voidness) as a radical form of philosophical nihilism. It argues that Nagarjuna’s philosophy, which asserts the unreality of all substances, represents an "absolute negation" rather than mere emptiness. The text includes translations of Nagarjuna and Aryadeva.
