Comparative Approaches to Chinese Philosophy

This anthology explores how Chinese and Western philosophies could jointly and constructively contribute to a common philosophical enterprise. Philosophers with in-depth knowledge of both traditions present a variety of distinct comparative approaches, offering a refined introduction to the further reaches of Chinese philosophy in the comparative context, especially regarding its three major constituents - Confucianism, philosophical Daoism and the Yi-Jing philosophy. The book examines various issues concerning philosophical methodology, ethics, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language and logic, and investigates both the living-spring source of Chinese philosophy and its contemporary implications and development through contemporary resources. The balanced coverage, accessible content, and breadth of approaches presented in this anthology should make it a valuable resource for students of Chinese philosophy, comparative philosophy and other related courses.
