Dao Companion to ZHU Xi’s Philosophy
Produktform: Buch / Einband - fest (Hardcover)
Zhu Xi (1130-1200) has been commonly and justifiably recognized as the most influential philosopher of Neo-Confucianism, a revival of classical Confucianism in face of the challenges coming from Daoism and, more importantly, Buddhism. His place in the Confucian tradition is often and also very plausibly compared to that of Thomas Aquinas, slightly later, in the Christian tradition. This book presents a most comprehensive and updated study of almost all, if not all, aspects of this great philosopher. It situates Zhu Xi’s philosophy in the historical context of not only Confucian philosophy but also Chinese philosophy as a whole, tracing both the earlier tradition that influences and that is responded to by his original thinking and the later tradition that he influences and that responds to his philosophy; this book is also a most systematic and detailed study of Zhu Xi’s philosophy, including metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, hermeneutics, philosophy of religion, moral psychology, and moral education; finally, this book is a thoroughly comparative and philosophical study of Zhu Xi’s thought, in the sense that contributors are trying their best to show the potential contributions that various aspects of Zhu Xi’s philosophy can make to contemporary philosophical issues, particularly in the analytic tradition. All these are done by a group of most talented and serious scholars of Zhu Xi writing in English.weiterlesen
