  • The Ethics of Confucius and Aristotle: Mirrors of Virtue – by Jiyuan Yu
    692 book reviews emphasizes the radical difference between Nagarjuna and Derrida, claiming that opposition and irreconcilable tensions, basically aporia, are exactly what Nagarjuna is denying. He explains: Nagarjuna’s project seems for its part to point to the deduction that all moral dualisms can only lead to a kind of ethical paralysis that weakens one’s ability to move from attachment to justice. Nagarjuna’s equation of samsara and nirvana lays aside any possible distinction between purely pure and purely impure acts, and along with these any need to posit an aporetic character to human goodness. (p. 55) Edelglass notes a similar difference, writing that Santideva’s denial of an absolute division between self and other would appear to Lévinas as a totalization and violent appropriation of the Other, while Lévinas’ preservation of the Other would appear to Santideva as a reification and absolutism (p. 154). From the broader perspective of comparative or intercultural phi- losophy, what is most interesting in this volume is how a similar pattern of undermining but not rejecting ethical norms recurs in such different contexts. Even though the tight focus of the collection on the European version of the pattern tends to obscure these differences, the collection is remarkably successful in retaining sensitivity to cul- tural difference while bringing about a fruitful conversation. Franklin Perkins DePaul University, Chicago, Illinois The Ethics of Confucius and Aristotle: Mirrors of Virtue. By Jiyuan Yu. (New York and London: Routledge, 2007. xii, 276 Pp. Hardback, ISBN 0-415-95647-1, 987-0-415-95647-5.) In a letter to a critic of his comparative sociology, Max Weber replied sarcastically: “Some may well sneer [that] dilettantes compare.” While this may be an apt remark for some who attempt to do com- parative philosophy, it definitely does not apply to Jijuan Yu in his groundbreaking comparison of Confucius and Aristotle.

  • JIYUAN YU / Is Chinese Cosmology Metaphysics?
    IS CHINESE COSMOLOGY METAPHYSICS? Jiyuan Yu* Abstract: In literature about Chinese philosophy, there are two prevailing views: (1) Chinese philosophy lacks interest in metaphy- sical pursuit and is preoccupied with practical affairs; and (2) There is a rich cosmology in Chinese thought. However, when we put these two views together, we get a disturbing and puzzling result: (3) Chinese cosmology is not metaphysics. This paper seeks to address the question “is Chinese cosmology metaphysics?” by asking questions about the following three topics. (a) Is there a shared Chinese cosmology that is unique to Chinese tradition but is sharply different from Greek cosmology? (b) Precisely what is the nature of the elation between Chinese ethics and Chinese cosmology? (c) Chinese cosmology and the issue of being. Although a full discussion of the issue is beyond the scope of one paper, I will try to identify some major problems in outline. My approach is through a comparison between Chinese cosmology and Greek cosmology/metaphysics. Introduction: Problem and Approach IN LITERATURE about Chinese philosophy, there are two prevailing views: (1) Chinese philosophy lacks interest in metaphysical pursuit and is preoccupied with practical affairs; and (2) There is a rich cosmology in Chinese thought. Let me call (1) the ―lack of metaphysics‘ view, and (2) the ―rich cosmology‖ view. The position (2), the ―rich cosmology‖ view, cannot be mistaken. Developed in the classical texts such as Mencius, Xunzi, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Guanzi, The Book of Changes, Huainanzi etc, Chinese cosmology has contributed many influential theories, such as that of tian (Heaven), Dao, Ying/yang, five phases, qi, the cyclical changes, tian-ren ho-yi (―the unity of tian and man‖), and so on.
