Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote in Nature, "The moral law lies at the
centre of nature and radiates to the circumference." The great
Chinese synthesizer of Neo-Confucian philosophy Zhu Xi expressed a
similar idea in the twelfth century: "In the realm of Heaven and
Earth it is this moral principle alone that flows everywhere."
Though living in different ages and cultures, these two thinkers
have uncanny overlap in their work. A comparative investigation of
Emerson's Transcendental thought and Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism,
this book shows how both thinkers traced the human morality to the
same source in the ultimately moral nature of the universe and
developed theories of the interrelation of universal law and the
human mind.
