Abstract
This publication presents the Ukrainian translation of the article “Eastern Wisdom and Wes-tern Knowledge” (1943) written by well-known researcher of Indian thought, metaphysician, historian of Indian art, traditionalist thinker Ananda Kentish Muthu Coomaraswamy (1877–1947).
In this article, published in an academic journal “Isis”, A. Coomaraswamy appears as not only a bright exponent of the ideas of traditionalism, but also an ardent supporter and even a follower of Rene Guenon. It contains a lot of significant, rich content and little-known materials and facts, in particular, we learn about the lifetime publications of fragments of Guénon’s works in India as well as about the reactions of Roman Catholics to Guénon’s works in the late 1930s and early 1940s.
The translation of Ananda Coomaraswamy’s article “Eastern Wisdom and Western Know-ledge” into the Ukrainian language has been carried out for the first time. Thus, acquaintance with Coomaraswamy’s works in Ukraine will be continued.
