Online Bosnian translation of the Sufi Commentary on Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching The Path and Its Virtue published – by Seyyed Hossein Nasr (Fons Vitae, USA, 2025, translated from English by Nevad Kahteran, pages 258)
Following the publication of Reza Shah Kazemi's Common Ground Between Islam and Buddhism (https://fonsvitae.com/product/zajednicko-tlo-izmedu-islama-i-budizma/), today the website of this reputable American academic publisher, Fons Vitae (https://fonsvitae.com/), published a third online book translated by Nevad Kahteran, this time written by Seyyed Hossein Nasr, a university professor at the George Washington University and a leading Muslim thinker today (see: https://fonsvitae.com/product/sufijski-komentar-lao-tzu-ovog-tao-te-ching-a-put-i-njegova-vrlina/).
The curiosity of such editions is that the publisher of all three editions, both the original and the translation, is the same American publisher. Furthermore, the second and third books were published simultaneously, that is, the second (The Autobiography of the Rector of al-Azhar, 'Abd al-Halim Mahmud is still awaiting the publication of its English original). In addition to the translator's forewords and afterwords in English and Bosnian, there are also bilingual reviews written by Bosnian reviewers, which gives each edition a Bosnian attire and a context of intercultural and transcultural deeper understanding.
Also, the text for the cover of this edition is signed by two prominent and world-famous professors, Sachiko Murata and Jana S. Rošker, and in this way they recommend the Bosnian translation to the readership not only of our region, but also of our diaspora around the world, especially that of the USA and Europe.
And last but not least, both the Publisher and the translator show through the publication of these three online editions that they are more interested in the dissemination of this kind of pluralistic ideas and thinking, since all three editions are available for online free download as soon as possible.
