Margus Ott is a researcher at Tallinn University, Estonia. He has performed previous research in Taiwan and Xiamen with the National Taiwan University.
""Margus Ott critically examines traditional Western epistemologies, noting their abstract, decontextualizing nature, and contrasts them with Chinese philosophy. He explores how knowledge intertwines with embodied context, revealing how transcending physical forms can lead to an integrated understanding of body and mind, offering alternative ways of experiencing and being in the world."" --Jana S. Rosker, Professor of Chinese Philosophy, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia ""Embodiment Theory and Chinese Philosophy breathes life into the early Chinese traditions through the lens of embodiment theories. Ott's multifaceted analysis resists a universalised account of the Chinese traditions, thereby providing rich, nuanced and novel insights. Here is Chinese philosophy, embodied."" --Kayn Lai, Professor of Philosophy, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia ""Margus Ott's Embodiment Theory and Chinese Philosophy breaks new ground by showing how Chinese thought is embodied, embedded, and affective, rather than disembodied, decontextualized, and contemplative. Ott's wide-ranging approach skillfully synthesizes not only Chinese and Western philosophy but also discoveries in anthropology and cognitive science, giving us an exciting new perspective on ancient texts and their relevance to the modern world."" --Bryan W. Van Norden, James Monroe Taylor Chair in Philosophy, Vassar College, USA
