  • Melancholy in Europe and in China: Some Observations of a Student of Intercultural Process*
    ASIAN AND AFRICAN STUDIES, 5, 1996, 1, 5069 MELANCHOLY IN EUROPE AND IN CHINA: SOME OBSERVATIONS OF A STUDENT OF INTERCULTURAL PROCESS* Marián GÁLIK Institute of Oriental and African Studies, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Klemensova 19, 813 64 Bratislava, Slovakia The aim of this paper is to characterize the different modes of melancholy in the West and in China during the ages beginning with the 8th cent. B.C. in Greece and 3rd cent. B.C. in China up to the beginning of the 20th cent. within the framework of intercultural process. There are the men who are wanting in the comparative, they are as a rule the most interesting. (Søren Kierkegaard: The Journals) The subject I am just beginning to talk about, is probably the most difficult and debatable topic during more than 35 years of my scholarly career. To solve adequately or at least approximately the question of melancholy in two parts of the world, that is Europe and China, is certainly not possible in the contempo- rary state of research, and even to try it, could be characterized as an adventure. One should have the measures of the bird Peng [1] from the book Zhuangzi [2], which with a back like Mount Tai and wings like clouds filling the sky1 would roam through the space under the blue and grey skies of the Eurasian continent to study variegated processes within the broad frameworks encom- passing that which our Western world labelled as melancholia, mélancolia, Melancholie, melenconie, malinconia, acedia, tristitia, tristesse, etc., just to name a few terms, concerned with this concept, and be good in or to understand enough from the ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, medicine, psychology, * This paper was delivered at the international conference: Melancholy and Society in China, organized by Professor Wolfgang Kubin, Bonn, July 36, 1995.

  • A New Examination of Confucius' Rectification of Names
    Journal of chinese humanities � (���6) �47-�7� brill.com/joch A New Examination of Confucius’ Rectification of Names Cao Feng (曹峰) Professor of Philosophy, Renmin University, China [email protected] Translated by Brook Hefright Abstract Confucius’ explanation of the “rectification of names” is not necessarily related to the theories of “social status” and “names and actuality.” The reason scholars have inter- preted the rectification of names in the Analects in so many different ways is, to a large degree, due to assumptions about Confucius’ thinking by his successors, and based on the views on rectification of names among later generations. In the course of the devel- opment of thinking about names, scholars have augmented Confucius’ own explana- tion, gradually fleshing it out from an empty shell into a substantial edifice. The original meaning may have been very simple: Confucius did not wish to establish a standard system of names. Rather, he was simply the first person in history to realize the impor- tance of language in politics. As a politician, Confucius noticed and foresaw the influ- ence that the indeterminacy, ambiguity, and arbitrariness of names could have on politics. He discerned the political consequences when language could not accurately express meaning or when there was no way for people to accurately perceive it. He also recognized how names, as a way of clarifying right and wrong and establishing norms, could have a great effect on a society’s politics. Although Confucius noted that disunity in speech could lead to disunity in politics, he did not propose a solution.

  • Chapter Three
    526 Chapter Three 經學昌明時代 The Period of Advancement of Classical Scholarship [3/1 SVA Introductory Comments: In the opening section of Chapter Three, Pi Xirui quotes extensively from the "Rulin zhuan" chapter of the Shi ji so as to support his position that during the reign of Emperor Wu (141-87 B.C.), Classical Scholarship was in its purest and most orthodox form. He also uses the lack of information in the "Rulin zhuan" regarding the Old Script Documents, Zhouli, Mao Shi, and Zuozhuan to argue that Sima Qian did not have access to these texts, which are texts of the "Old Script" school.] 3/11 The "Rulin zhuan" chapter of the Shi ji states, "When the present emperor2 ascended the throne, there were men such as Zhao Wan 趙綰 and Wang Zang 王臧3 who clearly understood Confucian learning and the 1[SVA: Section 3/1 corresponds to pp.69-72 of the Zhonghua ed. and to pp.60-64 of the Yiwen ed.] 2(3/1, n.1) Zhou Yutong comments: In the Chinese jinshang 今上, "the present emperor," refers to Emperor Wu of the Han. 3(3/1, n.2) Zhou Yutong comments: Zhao Wan 趙綰 was a native of Dai 代 and Wang Zang 王臧 was a native of Lanling 蘭陵. They both studied the Lu 527 emperor himself was also inclined toward it.4 He thereupon issued an order recruiting scholar-officials in the recommendation categories of Straightforward and Upright, Worthy and Excellent, and Learned.5 After this, as for giving instruction in the Songs, in Lu it was Master Shen Pei 申 培公, in Qi it was Master Yuan Gu 轅固生, and in Yan, it was Grand Tutor Han Ying 韓(嬰)太傅.

  • Calea Samuraiului (Fragmente) Partea a Iia Yamaga Sokō 山鹿素行
    Alexandra Mustățea Tōyō University, Tokyo Calea samuraiului (fragmente) Partea a iia Yamaga Sokō 山鹿素行 original title : 「山鹿語類巻第二十一・士道」[Însemnările lui Ya­ maga vol. 21: Calea samuraiului] 『山鹿語類第二』(Tokyo: Kokusho Kankōkai, 1911), 60–83. Yamaga Sokō, an Edo­period Confucian philosopher and harsh critic of the Hayashi school of Neo­Confucianism, proposed a return to the teach­ ings of the Confucian classics, thus becoming the first representative of the Kogaku school. Almost forgotten after his death, his moral philosophy was revived towards the end of the Edo. The fragments translated here are part of Sokō’s『士道』, a text that influenced modern conceptions of national identity and morality. For example, his concept of “loyalty,” in connection with the Shintō idea of the emperor’s divine origin, was central to Meiji kokutai ideology. Many of its ideas can also be linked to contemporary ideas of individuality, morality, and social philosophy such as Watsuji Tetsurō’s ningen and aidagara. keywords : perioada Edo—filosofie premodernă—Confucianism—Ya­ maga Sokō—Calea samuraiului—shidō—bushidō—Om re­ marcabil—Om ales—maniere demne European Journal of Japanese Philosophy 3 • 2018, pp. 263–283 Prezentare Inițial, Yamaga Sokō 山鹿素行 (1622–1685) a fost o figură minoră pe scena filosofiei confucianiste japoneze. El fost însă printre primii intelectuali con­ fucianiști care s­au opus vehement scolasticismului exagerat al neo­confuci­ anismului 朱子学 (Tawara 1998, 49), reprezentat la acea vreme de școala Hayashi, și care s­au dedicat popularizării filosofiei confucianiste în sfera cercurilor strict intelectuale. Ceea ce îl face pe Sokō încă relevant astăzi este același lucru care l­a făcut relevant în epoca Edo – convingerea că esența filosofiei nu stă în investigarea stearpă a unor concepte abstracte, ci în relevanța ei socială, în resursele pe care le poate oferi în slujba unei existențe armonioase și fericite.

    Cambridge Journal of China Studies 47 From Verbal-static to Visual-dynamic: a Perspective Shift in Studying the Structure of Lun Yu Jiuquan HAN Hebei Agricultural University, China Email: [email protected] Abstract : Starting off from Makeham’s (2003) differentiation between historical meaning and scriptural meaning, Huang’s (2011) citation of coherence theories and Xu’s (2002; 2004a; 2004b) embodimental reading by rejecting Western logos, this paper takes a perspective shift from verbal-static to visual-dynamic to study the structure of The Analects of Confucius. While a sheer verbal-static reading of the Lun Yu is doomed to the extremities of either praising its structure into the heaven or damning it into the hell, and to the ambiguity to argue that its structure is neither very coherent nor quite chaotic, a new perspective from verbal-static to visual-dynamic might lead to a view that the compilers of the Lun Yu actually take a reverse thinking in compiling this historic classics by segmenting and quantifying. (Mcluhan,1962,1964) Confucius’ thoughts into bricks and tiles scattering here and there, which induces careful readers to reconstruct for themselves Confucius’ systemic TEMPLE composed of key notion windmills centering round how to be a Junzi by constant recitation, visualization and interpretation based on Gestalt cognition principles of spontaneous similarity, proximity and continuation. Key Words: Perspective shift, Reconstruction, Lun Yu, Segmentation, Quantification, Gestalt principles Volume 11, No. 4 48 1 INTRODUCTION Various studies of The Analects of Confucius (Lun Yu),to date, cover its politic-ethical meaning and significance, influences both at home and abroad, name origin, compiling, varieties of versions and structural analysis.

  • A Discussion of Xunzi's “Encouraging Learning” and Its Significance For
    Journal of chinese humanities � (���6) �7�-�89 brill.com/joch A Discussion of Xunzi’s “Encouraging Learning” and Its Significance for Confucianism Wang Bo (王博) Professor of Philosophy, Peking University, China [email protected] Translated by Colleen Howe Abstract Much of Xunzi’s philosophy can be characterized as a deepening of themes introduced by Confucius and, at the same time, a reaction against Mencius’ brand of Confucianism. For Xunzi, the idea of learning was a critical concept in achieving both of these goals. In Xunzi’s philosophy, learning is not simply the accumulation of knowledge but, rather, the process of coming to understand morality as a lifelong process of self-cultivation and self-improvement. Xunzi did not agree with Mencius that human nature was inher- ently good; instead he believed that human nature was bad, which is why individuals must actively learn to control their base desires. It is no coincidence that, in Xunzi’s project of self-cultivation based on learning to overcome one’s primal nature, chapter 1 of his anthology is “Encouraging Learning.” Reexamining the respective moral philoso- phies of Xunzi and Mencius from the perspective of learning and its role in moral culti- vation can provide a deeper understanding of their overall philosophy. Keywords Confucianism learning – Mencius – moral philosophy – Xunzi The Complete Library of the Four Treasures [Siku quanshu zongmu 四庫全書 總目] says: Xun Kuang’s works aimed at illuminating the teachings of the Duke of Zhou and Confucius.

  • Comparative Analysis of Confucius Rites and the Russian Orthodox Church Service
    Zhang Baichun. Comparative Analysis of Confucius Rites and the Russian Orthodox Church Service COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CONFUCIUS RITES AND THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH SERVICE* Zhang Baichun Zhang Baichun – Doctor of Science (Philosophy), Professor of the Department of Philosophy at the Beijing Normal University (People’s Republic of China, Bei- jing). E-mail: [email protected] Confucius and Confucianism show religious foundations and the divine spark ritual in a rather feeble way. But the attitudes of Confucius and Confucianism towards Rites are different. Thus, Rites are at the center of the teachings of Confucius whereas Confucianism put Rites to the mar- gin. Confucianism is strongly politically-loaded which has led to the breakup with the tradition of ritual. On the contrary, the traditions of the Russian Orthodox Church service have not changed and the divine spark is very important for the Church. Key words: Ritual, Confucianism.

  • Disputers of Abdication 243
    disputers of abdication 243 DISPUTERS OF ABDICATION: ZHANGUO EGALITARIANISM AND THE SOVEREIGN’S POWER* by YURI PINES The Hebrew University of Jerusalem The idea of a ruler yielding his throne to a worthier candidate, which is the theme of the legend of Yao’s 堯 abdication to his meritorious minister, Shun 舜, and of the parallel legend of Shun’s abdication in favor of Yu 禹, is one of the most curious legacies of Zhanguo (“Warring States,” 453-221 BCE)1 political thought. No other concept promulgated by Zhanguo thinkers was so contradic- tory to the political reality of pre-imperial and imperial China; and yet the ideal of “yielding to the worthy” remained popular through- out the imperial millennia, and the legend of Yao’s abdication was routinely employed to facilitate dynastic changes from the Han (漢, 206 BCE-220 CE) dynasty onwards. What is even more puzzling is that, despite the evident popularity of the abdication myth and its ubiquity in Zhanguo writings, not a single received Zhanguo text discusses this issue systematically. Angus Graham asserted that such muted discussion may reflect the thinkers’ reluctance to engage in the politically sensitive issue of questioning hereditary rule, but expressed confidence that the extant examples of advocacy of ruler’s abdication were “likely to be the tip of the iceberg”.2 Graham’s insight has been confirmed within less than two decades * This research was supported by the Israel Science Foundation (grant No. 726/02-1) and under the auspices of the Michael William Lipson Chair in Chinese Studies. I am deeply indebted to Carine Defoort, Irene Eber, Andrew Plaks, Moss Roberts and the T’oung Pao reviewers for their insightful remarks to the earlier drafts of this paper, and to Ed Shaughnessy for generously sharing with me his unpublished materials.
