This book is about the philosophical, historical, and
interpretative aspects of Mencius. It explores his influence,
reception, and relevance in China from the third century BCE to the
present, as well as offers comparative studies of Mencius and major
figures in the history of Chinese and Western philosophy. With 34
accessible articles written by leading philosophers and scholars,
the Dao Companion to the Philosophy of Mencius provides both broad
pictures and in-depth discussions regarding the work of one of the
most important and influential Chinese philosophers. It covers his
normative ethics, meta-ethics, political philosophy, epistemology
and moral psychology. The last section of the volume, “Mencius
and Western Philosophers: Comparative Perspectives,” explicitly
puts him in dialogue with major Western philosophers. The Dao
Companion to the Philosophy of Mencius serves as an essential
volume for college students, graduate students, and scholars who
study and teach Mencius as well as Chinese philosophy and
comparative philosophy in general.
