Even the most casual observer of Chinese society is aware of the
tremendous significance of Confucianism as a linchpin of both
ancient and modern Chinese identity. Furthermore, the Confucian
tradition has exercised enormous influence over the values and
institutions of the other cultures of East Asia, an influence that
continues to be important in the global Asian diaspora. If
forecasters are correct in labeling the 21st century 'the Chinese
century, ' teachers and scholars of religious studies and theology
will be called upon to illuminate the history, character, and role
of Confucianism as a religious tradition in Chinese and
Chinese-influenced societies. The essays in this volume will
address the specifically pedagogical challenges of introducing
Confucian material to non-East Asian scholars and students.
Informed by the latest scholarship as well as practical experience
in the religious studies and theology classroom, the essays are
attentive to the various settings within which religious material
is taught and sensitive to the needs of both experts in Confucian
studies and those with no background in Asian studies who are
charged with teaching these traditions. The authors represent all
the arenas of Confucian studies, from the ancient to the modern.
Courses involving Confucius and Confucianism have proliferated
across the disciplinary map of the modern university. This volume
will be an invaluable resource for instructors not only in
religious studies departments and theological schools, but also
teachers of world philosophy, non-Western philosophy, Asian
studies, and world history.
