課程概述 |
The course treats early Chinese philosophy as the essential expression of Humanism in traditional China. The course begins with a historical and philosophical survey of Western Humanism, which is well-defined, to show that Chinese Humanism shares the essential features of Humanism, but it also has significant distinguishing characteristics. Moreover, it provides clear accounts of nature as well as of humanity’s relationship with nature. The course is focused on the traditional Chinese conception of the unity of nature and humanity (天人合一) and related concepts for the possibility of developing an ethics of the environment and climate change that is not crippled by anthropocentrism, which is the weakness of Western ethics, generally. |
