This volume presents both a historical and a systematic
examination of the philosophy of classical Confucianism. Taking
into account newly unearthed materials and the most recent
scholarship, it features contributions by experts in the field,
ranging from senior scholars to outstanding early career scholars.
The book first presents the historical development of classical
Confucianism, detailing its development amidst a fading ancient
political theology and a rising wave of creative humanism. It
examines the development of the philosophical ideas of Confucius as
well as his disciples and his grandson Zisi, the Zisi-Mencius
School, Mencius, and Xunzi. Together with this historical
development, the book analyzes and critically assesses the
philosophy in the Confucian Classics and other major works of these
philosophers. The second part systematically examines such
philosophical issues as feeling and emotion, the aesthetic
appreciation of music, wisdom in poetry, moral psychology, virtue
ethics, political thoughts, the relation with the Ultimate Reality,
and the concept of harmony in Confucianism. The Philosophy of
Classical Confucianism offers an unparalleled examination to the
philosophers, basic texts and philosophical concepts and ideas of
Classical Confucianism as well as the recently unearthed bamboo
slips related to Classical Confucianism. It will prove itself a
valuable reference to undergraduate and postgraduate university
students and teachers in philosophy, Chinese history, History,
Chinese language and Culture.
