Philosophy Philosophy Confucius Han dynasty Li Si Xun Kuang Zuo zhuan After Confucius is a collection of eight studies of Chinese philosophy from the time of Confucius to the formation of the empire in the second and third centuries B.C.E. As detailed in a masterful introduction, each essay serves as a concrete example of “thick description”—an approach invented by philosopher Gilbert Ryle—which aims to reveal the logic that informs an observable exchange among members of a community or society. To grasp the significance of such exchanges, it is necessary to investigate the networks of meaning on which they rely. Paul R. Goldin argues that the character of ancient Chinese philosophy can be appreciated only if we recognize the cultural codes underlying the circulation of ideas in that world. Thick description is the best preliminary method to determine how Chinese thinkers conceived of their own enterprise. 2020-03-13 03:00:30 2020-04-01T13:45:58Z 2017-03-22 23:55 2020-03-13 03:00:30 2020-04-01T13:45:58Z 2020-04-01T13:45:58Z 2005-01-31 book 625891 OCN: 680230441 9780824873998 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/31688 eng application/pdf n/a 625891.pdf University of Hawai'i Press 10.26530/oapen_625891 100425 10.26530/oapen_625891 3fe12fec-6f5e-4c52-b268-b65ab05c85d3 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9780824873998 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) 100425 KU Select 2016 Backlist Collection Knowledge Unlatched open access |
