Confucianism and Women: A Philosophical Interpretation
ISBN: 9780791467503 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Confucianism and Women argues that Confucian philosophy--often criticized as misogynistic and patriarchal--is not inherently sexist.

Since the mid-1980s, Taiwan and mainland China have witnessed a sustained resurgence of academic and intellectual interest in "ruxue" Confucianism variously conceived as a form of culture, an ideology, a system of learning, and a tradition of normative values.

This study aims to show how "ruxue" has been conceived in order to assess the achievements of this enterprise; to identify which...

The Trouble with Confucianism
ISBN: 9780674910164 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and other parts of East and Southeast Asia, as well as China, people are asking, "What does Confucianism have to offer today?" For some, Confucius is still the symbol of a reactionary and repressive past; for others, he is the humanist admired by generations of scholars and thinkers, East and West, for his ethical system and discipline. In the face of such complications, only a scholar of Theodore de Bary's stature could venture broad answers to the question of the significance of Confucianism in today's world.
