Book Synopsis Confucianism, A Habit of the Heart by : Philip J. Ivanhoe
Download or read book Confucianism, A Habit of the Heart written by Philip J. Ivanhoe and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employs Robert Bellahs notion of civil religion to explore East Asias Confucian revival. Can Confucianism be regarded as a civil religion for East Asia? This book explores this question, bringing the insights of Robert Bellah to a consideration of various expressions of the contemporary Confucian revival. Bellah identified American civil religion as a religious dimension of life that can be found throughout US culture, but one without any formal institutional structure. Rather, this civil form of religion provides the ethical principles that command reverence and by which a nation judges itself. Extending Bellahs work, contributors from both the social sciences and the humanities conceive of East Asias Confucian revival as a habit of the heart, an underlying belief system that guides a society, and examine how Confucianism might function as a civil religion in China, Korea, and Japan. They discuss what aspects of Confucian tradition and thought are being embraced; some of the social movements, political factors, and opportunities connected with the revival of the tradition; and why Confucianism has not traveled much beyond East Asia. The late Robert Bellahs reflection on the possibility for a global civil religion concludes the volume.
Book Synopsis What Would Confucius Do? by : Evelyn Berthrong
Download or read book What Would Confucius Do? written by Evelyn Berthrong and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2005-10-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has changed dramatically in the 2,500 years since Confucius' lifetime, but in many ways we still struggle with his core concern: how to live together with a minimum of conflict. In What Would Confucius Do?, East Asian teacher and scholar E. N. Berthrong provides a clear guide to how we can apply Confucian tenets to the modern world. Her original interpretation, based on years of studyingThe Analects, focuses on tact, compromise, and a willingness to see the other person's point of view-Confucius' three keys to living in harmony. This compendium of Confucian quotations, reflections, and advice-from "learning when to speak," to "making the most out of being alive"-is organized to follow the general path of one's career or life and can be applied to the workplace, the family, or society in general. Bernthrong's ambitious goal, like that of Confucius, is to get everyone to discover and know the true inner satisfaction that can be achieved through living life in a civilized manner as taught by one of history's most popular figures.

Download or read book Confucius written by Michael Schuman and published by Civitas Books. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confucius is perhaps the most important philosopher in history. Today, his teachings shape the daily lives of more than 1.6 billion people. Throughout East Asia, Confucius’s influence can be seen in everything from business practices and family relationships to educational standards and government policies. Even as western ideas from Christianity to Communism have bombarded the region, Confucius’s doctrine has endured as the foundation of East Asian culture. It is impossible to understand East Asia, journalist Michael Schuman demonstrates, without first engaging with Confucius and his vast legacy. Confucius created a worldview that is in many respects distinct from, and in conflict with, Western culture. As Schuman shows, the way that East Asian companies are managed, how family members interact with each other, and how governments see their role in society all differ from the norm in the West due to Confucius’s lasting impact. Confucius has been credited with giving East Asia an advantage in today’s world, by instilling its people with a devotion to learning, and propelling the region’s economic progress. Still, the sage has also been highly controversial. For the past 100 years, East Asians have questioned if the region can become truly modern while Confucius remains so entrenched in society. He has been criticized for causing the inequality of women, promoting authoritarian regimes, and suppressing human rights. Despite these debates, East Asians today are turning to Confucius to help them solve the ills of modern life more than they have in a century. As a wealthy and increasingly powerful Asia rises on the world stage, Confucius, too, will command a more prominent place in global culture. Touching on philosophy, history, and current affairs, Confucius tells the vivid, dramatic story of the enigmatic philosopher whose ideas remain at the heart of East Asian civilization.

Download or read book Three Streams written by P. J. Ivanhoe and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent interest in Confucianism has a tendency to suffer from essentialism and idealism, manifested in a variety of ways. One example is to think of Confucianism in terms of the views attributed to one representative of the tradition, such as Kongzi (Confucius) (551-479 BCE) or Mengzi (Mencius) (372 - 289 BCE) or one school or strand of the tradition, most often the strand or tradition associated with Mengzi or, in the later tradition, that formed around the commentaries and interpretation of Zhu Xi (1130-1200). Another such tendency is to think of Confucianism in terms of its manifestations in only one country; this is almost always China for the obvious reasons that China is one of the most powerful and influential states in the world today. A third tendency is to present Confucianism in terms of only one period or moment in the tradition; for example, among ethical and political philosophers, pre-Qin Confucianism--usually taken to be the writings attributed to Kongzi, Mengzi, and, if we are lucky, Xunzi (479-221 BCE)--often is taken as "Confucianism." These and other forms of essentialism and idealism have led to a widespread and deeply entrenched impression that Confucianism is thoroughly homogenous and monolithic (these often are "facts" mustered to support the purportedly oppressive, authoritarian, and constricted nature of the tradition); such impressions can be found throughout East Asia and dominate in the West. This is quite deplorable for it gives us no genuine sense of the creatively rich, philosophically powerful, highly variegated, and still very much open-ended nature of the Confucian tradition. This volume addresses this misconstrual and misrepresentation of Confucianism by presenting a philosophically critical account of different Confucian thinkers and schools, across place (China, Korea, and Japan) and time (the 10th to 19th centuries).

Book Synopsis Confucianism and Phenomenology by : Yinghua Lu
Download or read book Confucianism and Phenomenology written by Yinghua Lu and published by Modern Chinese Philosophy. This book was released on 2021 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Critically developing the Contemporary New Confucianism, this book opens a new horizon for the study of emotions and philosophy of heart-mind and [human] nature by focusing on the communication between phenomenology, particularly Schelerian phenomenology, and Chinese philosophy, especially Mencius and Wang Yangming. Such communication demonstrates how ethics based on factual experience is possible, revealing the original spirit and fresh meaning of Confucian learning of the heart-mind. In clarifying crucial feelings and values, this work undertakes a detailed description of the heart's concrete activities for the idea that "the heart has its own order," allowing us to see the order of the heart and its deviated form clearly and comprehensively"--
