Early Confucian philosophers (notably Confucius and Mencius)
emphasized moral significance of shame in self-cultivation and
learning. In their discussion, shame is not just a painful sense of
moral failure or transgression but also a moral disposition and a
form of moral excellence (i.e., virtue) that is essential to
Confucian self-cultivation. In Moral Psychology of Confucian Shame,
Bongrae Seok argues that shame is a genuine moral emotion and moral
disposition. Engaging with recent studies of social psychology,
cultural psychology, biology, and anthropology, Seok explains that
shame is a uniquely evolved form of moral emotion that is
comparable to, but not identical with, guilt. The author goes on to
develop an interpretation of Confucian shame that reveals the
embodied, interactive, and transformative nature of the Confucian
moral self.
