Zusammenfassung:"This volume offers a comprehensive philosophical study of Confucian ethics - its basic insights and its relevance to contemporary Western moral philosophy. Writer and philosopher A.S. Cua presents fourteen essays which deal with various problems arising in the philosophical explication of the nature of Chinese ethical thought." "Offering a unique analytical approach, Cua focuses on the conceptual and dialectical aspects of Confucian ethics. Among the topics discussed are: the nature and significance of the Chinese Confucian moral vision of tao; the complementary insights of Classical Taoism, namely, of Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu; and the logical and rhetorical aspects of Confucian ethics." "Perhaps more relevant to contemporary East-West ethical discourse, several essays introduce a systematic Confucian moral philosophy. Cua concludes with a discussion of the possibility of reasoned discourse, aiming at a resolution of intercultural ethical conflict."--Jacket
