Book Synopsis Paul Tillich and Chu Hsi by : Kin Ming Au
Download or read book Paul Tillich and Chu Hsi written by Kin Ming Au and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates the similarities within differences between Paul Tillich's (1886-1965) and Chu Hsi's (1130-1200) concepts of human condition. Tillich and Chu, one of the leading Christian theologians of the twentieth century and the greatest Sung Neo-Confucian philosopher respectively, were both profound students of human nature. By developing three vague comparative theological categories - unity, activity, and reunification - this book suggests that, although these two great thinkers came from two radically different religious traditions and cultures, Tillich and Chu articulated similar views of the unity of human reality and the problem of human existence. Furthermore, they proposed remarkably parallel strategies to resolve the tensions of finite human existence in searching for a reunification of human nature with its root in divine reality. Although these three comparative categories are generated from the fertile matrix of Tillich's thought they are designed to deal with a problem and its resolution common to Chu's thought as well.

Book Synopsis Dao Companion to ZHU Xi’s Philosophy by : Kai-chiu Ng
Download or read book Dao Companion to ZHU Xi’s Philosophy written by Kai-chiu Ng and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 the most comprehensive and updated study 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. Topics covered within Zhu Xi’s thought are metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy, hermeneutics, philosophy of religion, moral psychology, and moral education. This text shows both how Zhu Xi responded to earlier thinkers and how his thoughts resonate in contemporary philosophy, particularly in the analytic tradition. This companion will appeal to students, researchers and educators in the field.

Book Synopsis Christianity and Confucianism by : Christopher Hancock
Download or read book Christianity and Confucianism written by Christopher Hancock and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity and Confucianism: Culture, Faith and Politics, sets comparative textual analysis against the backcloth of 2000 years of cultural, political, and religious interaction between China and the West. As the world responds to China's rise and China positions herself for global engagement, this major new study reawakens and revises an ancient conversation. As a generous introduction to biblical Christianity and the Confucian Classics, Christianity and Confucianism tells a remarkable story of mutual formation and cultural indebtedness. East and West are shown to have shaped the mind, heart, culture, philosophy and politics of the other - and far more, perhaps, than either knows or would want to admit. Christopher Hancock has provided a rich and stimulating resource for scholars and students, diplomats and social scientists, devotees of culture and those who pursue wisdom and peace today.

Book Synopsis Eros Toward the World by : Alexander C. Irwin
Download or read book Eros Toward the World written by Alexander C. Irwin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-01-20 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander Irwin's original and important work retrieves and develops the often-neglected but extremely fruitful notion of eros in Paul Tillich's thought.Irwin's recovery of Tillich's rich concept shows how eros is a crucial dimension in human existence and a driving force in all human creativity - in art, social ethics, politics, and religion.Yet Tillich's theology and his personal life also contained a destructive aspect that begs the question of relational justice. Confronting the demonic in eros leads Irwin to augment Tillich's notion with recent feminist theologies of the erotic and yields a profound and promising avenue for contemporary religious thought.
Book Synopsis Cultural Blending In Korean Death Rites by : Chang-Won Park
Download or read book Cultural Blending In Korean Death Rites written by Chang-Won Park and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Blending in Korean Death Rites examines the cultural encounter of Confucianism and Christianity with particular reference to death rites in Korea. As its overarching interpretive framework, this book employs the idea of the 'total social phenomenon', a concept first introduced by the French anthropologist Marcel Mauss (1872-1950). From the perspective of the total social phenomenon, this book utilizes a combination of theological, historical, sociological and anthropological approaches, and explores Korean death rites by classifying them into three categories: ritual before death (Bible copying), ritual at death (funerary rites),and ritual after death (ancestral ritual). It focuses on Christian practices as they epitomize the complex interplay of Confucianism and Christianity. By drawing on a total social phenomenon approach to the empirical case of Korean death rites, Chang-Won Park contributes to the advancement of theory and method in religious studies.

Book Synopsis Systematic Theology, Volume 3 by : Paul Tillich
Download or read book Systematic Theology, Volume 3 written by Paul Tillich and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1976-09-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, the third and last of his Systematic Theology, Paul Tillich sets forth his ideas of the meaning of human life, the doctrine of the Spirit and the church, the trinitarian symbols, the relation of history to the Kingdom of God, and the eschatological symbols. He handles this subject matter with powerful conceptual ability and intellectual grace. The problem of life is ambiguity. Every process of life has its contrast within itself, thus driving man to the quest for unambiguous life or life under the impact of the Spritual Presence. The Spritual Presence conquers the negativities of religion, culture, and morality, and the symbols anticipating Eternal Life present the answer to the problem of life.
Book Synopsis Returning to Zhu Xi by : David Jones
Download or read book Returning to Zhu Xi written by David Jones and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-11-20 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reconsideration of Zhu Xi, known as the “great synthesizer” of Confucianism, which establishes him as an important thinker in his own right. Zhu Xi (1130–1200), the chief architect of neo-Confucian thought, affected a momentous transformation in Chinese philosophy. His ideas came to dominate Chinese intellectual life, including the educational and civil service systems, for centuries. Despite his influence, Zhu Xi is known as the “great synthesizer” and rarely appreciated as a thinker in his own right. This volume presents Zhu Xi as a major world philosopher, one who brings metaphysics and cosmology into attunement with ethical and social practice. Contributors from the English- and Chinese-speaking worlds explore Zhu Xi’s unique thought and offer it to the Western philosophical imagination. Zhu Xi’s vision is critical, intellectually rigorous, and religious, telling us how to live in the transforming world of li—the emergent, immanent, and coherent patternings of natural and human milieu. David Jones is Visiting Scholar at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Humanities and Social Sciences, National Taiwan University and Professor of Philosophy at Kennesaw State University. His many books include Asian Texts — Asian Contexts: Encounters with Asian Philosophies and Religions (coedited with E. R. Klein), also published by SUNY Press. Jinli He is Assistant Professor of Chinese at Trinity University.
