  • The Unity of Yin and Yang: a Philosophical Assessment
    The Unity of Yin and Yang: A Philosophical Assessment Thaddeus T'ui-chieh Hang National Chengchi University, Taipei "One yin ^ and one yang d, constitute what is called Tao 51"; "When yin and yang are united in their virtue, the soft and the hard attain their physical shape." These famous statements are drawn from the "Appended Remarks" (Hsi-tz'u Slit?) of the / Ching %M.. Since they were uttered more than two thousand years ago, they became the metaphysical foun- dation for the two great philosophical schools of China, namely, Taoism and Confucianism. For both these schools, yin and yang, two contrasting but mutually compensating components constitute unity in harmony. We shall endeavor to give an historical account of this concept, describe it phenomenologically, and venture a philosophical assessment from cos- mological, anthropological, as well as theological points of view. I. An Historical Account The origin of yin-yang ideas must be sought in very ancient times. In the Book of Poetry (Shih-ching I^M?i<) the words "yin" and "yang" signified the north and south sides of a mountain.1 In the Book of Historical Documents (Shu-ching US?) the two words never appeared together ex- cept in the apocryphal "Chou-kuan" /SJ1T. Even in the Analects of Con- fucius there is no mention of yin-yang. However, the eight trigrams were probably in use at the beginning of the Chou )*] dynasty (late 12th cen- tury B.C.). Since the eight trigrams consist of combinations of broken and 'James Legge, The Chinese Classics: Vol. IV, Book of Poetry (Taipei, 1972), Ode 19, p.

  • Daodejing-Ivanhoe.Pdf
    CHAPTER FOUR Laozi (“The Daodejing” ) Introduction Traditionally, Laozi q! is said to have been an older contemporary of Confucius and the author of the Laozi or Daodejing /-r. But most con- temporary scholars regard Laozi (literally “Old Master”) as a mythical char- acter and the Laozi to be composite work. The present version of the text consists of short passages, from a variety of sources, over half of which are rhymed. These were collected together into a single volume of eighty-one chapters that were then divided into two books. Book I consists of chap- ters one through thirty-seven, the dao /, “Way,” half of the text; Book II consists of chapters thirty-eight through eighty-one, the de -, “Virtue,” half. On the basis of this organization, this version of the text came to be known as the Daodejing, which means simply “The Classic of Dao and De.” This division in no way reflects the contents of the chapters them- selves, except that the first chapter begins with the word dao and the thirty- eighth chapter begins by describing the highest de. The text may have reached its present form sometime during the third or perhaps second cen- tury B.C.E. Another version of the text, named after its place of discovery, Mawangdui s™u, is similar in content and firmly dated to the middle of the second century B.C.E.But in the Mawangdui version, the order of the Books is reversed, giving us the Dedaojing. Though it was probably cobbled together from different sources, the Laozi may well have been assembled during a relatively short period of time and perhaps by a single editor.

  • Ascribing Sexual Orientations
    Atlantis Vol. 13 No.2 Spring/Printemps 1988 Ascribing Sexual Orientations Christine Overall Queen's University ABSTRACT The goal of this paper is to suggest a somewhat different approach to the contemporary discussion of human sexual orientations. Instead of examining the nature of sexual orientation itself, it discusses the meanings of ascriptions of sexual orientation. (The discussion is confined to cases where the subject of ascription is female.) The paper begins with a survey of some prevalent ways of interpreting ascriptions of sexual orientation. It then comments on the variations in their meanings, and considers what the speaker is doing when uttering such an ascription. It concludes with some comments about an apparently anomalous sexual orientation, bisexuality. My interest in the ascription of sexual orientations what it is to be a lesbian (let alone a lesbian bisexual), and arose, in part, from three observations which I made over how one is to know whether any person (including one• the course of the past year.1 First, in my investigations of self) is one. ethical issues pertaining to reproductive technology, it became very clear that access to such processes as in vitro I was troubled, then, by both ontological and epistemo- fertilization and artificial insemination by donor is regu• logical problems: What is it to be lesbian or heterosexual lated and limited by means of the physician-enforced stip• or bisexual?

Jones, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey Book V of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Émile, which proposed the striking model of Sophie’s feminine alterity, remains a touchstone for scholars of women and gender in eighteenth-century France. In the past two decades, however, historians have moved well beyond Rousseau in their exploration of the gendered history of the Enlightenment, scouring sources and sites that range from fashion magazines and salons to colonial treatises and pornographic literature. Drawing on the new social history of ideas in the 1970s and inspired by engagement with Jürgen Habermas’s model of the “public sphere” from the late 1980s, gender historians have continued to expand their field of inquiry.[1] Florence Lotterie reminds us, however, that scholars still have much to learn about how philosophy itself was gendered in the eighteenth century. She argues that the figure of the female philosopher stood at the center of both eighteenth-century fears and fantasies about the difference between the sexes and new definitions of philosophy itself. Florence Lotterie, professor of eighteenth-century French literature at the University of Paris VII Denis Diderot, is an especially learned guide to the gendered “mind of the Enlightenment”

  • Why Do Women Leave Philosophy?
    Philosophers’ volume 16, no. 6 1. When do women leave philosophy? Imprint march 2016 In 2012 in the United States, for every 100 men graduating with a col- lege degree, 141 women graduated.1 For decades now, more women have been enrolled in American universities than men. Yet, during these same decades, the proportion of women who major in philos- ophy has remained stagnant, hovering below one-third. So, while al- WHY DO WOMEN LEAVE most 60% of college graduates are now women, only 30% of philoso- phy majors are women (Department of Education, 2013; Paxton et al., 2012). In the humanities, religion and theology (35.6%) is the closest PHILOSOPHY? SURVEYING major to philosophy when it comes to the underrepresentation of fe- male majors. Among all majors, the only ones with similarly low ratios are economics (31%), physics (19.7%), computer science (22%), and en- gineering (20%).2 STUDENTS AT THE With women getting just 30% of philosophy bachelor’s degrees, it’s no surprise that the ratio of women to men is so low among philos- ophy graduate students (30%) and professors (20.7%) (Paxton et al., INTRODUCTORY LEVEL 2012; Norlock, 2012).3 The underrepresentation and treatment of fe- male graduate students and professors in philosophy has, for good rea- son, received increasing attention in recent years. But there has been limited discussion, and very few empirical investigations, of why so Morgan Thompson∗, Toni Adleberg†, Sam many women say goodbye to philosophy just after being introduced to it.

Editor’s Note: This is the complete version of an article with the same title adapted for the Winter 2014 Academic Questions (vol. 27, no. 4) A number of philosophers attribute the underrepresentation of women in philosophy largely to bias against women or some kind of wrongful discrimination. They cite six sources of evidence to support their contention: (1) gender disparities that increase along the path from undergraduate student to full-time faculty member; (2) anecdotal accounts of discrimination in philosophy; (3) research on gender bias in the evaluation of manuscripts, grants, and curricula vitae in other academic disciplines; (4) psychological research on implicit bias; (5) psychological research on stereotype threat; and (6) the relatively small number of articles written from a feminist perspective in leading philosophy journals.

Issues ABSTRACT This essay examines the ways in which philosophy, as a discipline, has been influenced by feminist scholarship in the field. It explains that in the 1970s feminist philosophers introduced questions regarding personal life and sexuality as matters for philosophical analysis, and that scholars began to challenge the notions of the Western canon. Feminists argued that understanding philosophical texts required reading symbolic and metaphorical language to discover subtexts that held philosophical reasoning in place. The essay goes on to discuss the radical interpretive techniques, such as deconstruction, used by feminist philosophers, and explains that scholars have begun to question the very identity and root impulse of the discipline of philosophy. The essay concludes that the use of feminist materials in philosophy courses can lead to deep change in the way that philosophy is conceived of and taught, because women's work in philosophy has tended to be grounded in existential issues, critically self-reflective of its methodology, and open to interdisciplinary enrichment.
