Self-Giving Existence: A Short Introduction to Kurdish Philosophy of Existence by Kamal Mirawdeli presents a groundbreaking ontological framework rooted in the Kurdish language, lived experience, and the concept of self-giving existence (XODA). This academic textbook systematically explores how existence gives itself, forms worlds, sustains life, and renews without teleology or guarantee.
The book also positions Kurdish philosophy within global philosophical discourse, offering a non-imperial universality that expands the horizon of philosophy itself.
Designed for students and scholars, it includes pedagogical tools such as glossaries, syllabi, and exam questions to facilitate teaching and learning.
