Professor Dr. Michael von Brück
Chair of Religious Studies at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich
India and Europe
India and Europe have been in contact since classical antiquity, but
not until the 18th and 19th centuries did artistic,
philosophical, and religious influences from India begin to have a
profound effect on the cultural life of Europe. Indian influence had
been felt in China and East Asia since the 1st century AD, notably
through the spread of Buddhism, and this, in turn, was a source of
inspiration to European artists in the 19th and 20th centuries. There is no such thing as a self-contained culture. The
lecture will discuss the patterns, rejections, and creative potential
of intercultural exchange.
