This book collects the 25 most important articles written by
Professor Tang since the 1980s, dealing extensively with issues of
Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity and Chinese culture.
In these articles, Professor Tang proves his value as a worthy
successor to the Chinese philosophical tradition, while also open
to the latest trends of thought both at home and abroad. The late
Professor Tang Yijie (1927-2014) was a prominent professor at
Peking University and China's top scholar on philosophy and Chinese
studies. He spearheaded the Confucian Canon project (**), which
seeks to compile all known classical works on Confucianism,
comparable in scope and significance to the Complete Library of the
Four Treasuries (****), the largest collection of books on Chinese
history, which was commissioned by the Qianlong Emperor in the 18th
century. Throughout his life, Professor Tang published scores of
books and more than one hundred articles, offering enlightening
insights into how to deal with issues that have historically
troubled and continue to trouble people in modern society. Among
his numerous innovations, Professor Tang is especially remembered
for introducing the concept of "harmony in diversity"(****). In the
context of "the clash of civilizations" championed by Samuel P.
Huntington, Tang argued for harmony in diversity, holding that this
principle can offer some clues to help enable peoples, nations, and
regions with different cultural traditions to develop together
while remaining unique. note: * represents Chinese character,
