Neo Confucianism by Stephen C. Angle, Justin Tiwald
A Philosophical Introduction
This insightful exploration delves into the philosophical and ethical dimensions of Neo-Confucianism, a revival and reinterpretation of Confucian thought that emerged during the Song and Ming dynasties. The book examines the movement's key figures, such as Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming, and their contributions to the development of moral philosophy, metaphysics, and the cultivation of personal virtue. Through a detailed analysis, it highlights how Neo-Confucianism sought to address the challenges of its time by integrating elements of Buddhism and Daoism, ultimately shaping the intellectual and cultural landscape of East Asia.
