The Confucian revival which manifests itself in the Modern
Confucian current, belongs to the most important streams of thought
in contemporary Chinese philosophy. This book introduces this
stream of thought by focusing on the second generation Modern
Confucians-Mou Zongsan, Tang Junyi, Xu Fuguan and Fang Dongmei.
They argue thattraditional Confucianism, as a specifically Chinese
social, political, and moral system of thought can, if adapted to
the modern era, serve as the foundation for an ethicallymeaningful
modern life.
This book uncovers the history of imperial ordinations through a
detailed examination of the Ordination Scroll of Empress Zhang
(1493), an important Ming Dynasty Daoist artifact-its
transcriptions and meticulously-painted images of celestial beings,
as well as the influences of the Daoist leaders known as the
Zhengyi Heavenly Masters.
