Becoming Human: Li Zehou's Ethics: Modern Chinese Philosophy, cartea 20

Autor Jana Rošker
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 ian 2020
The book Becoming Human: Li Zehou’s Ethics offers a critical introduction and in-depth analysis of Li Zehou’s moral philosophy and ethics. Li Zehou, who is one of the most influential contemporary Chinese philosophers, believes that ethics is the most important philosophical discipline. He aims to revive, modernize, develop, and complement Chinese traditional ethics through what he calls “transformative creation” (轉化性的創造). He takes Chinese ethics, which represents the main pillar of Chinese philosophy, as a vital basis for his elaborations on certain aspects of Kant’s, Marx’s and other Western theoreticians’ thoughts on ethics, and hopes to contribute in this way to the development of a new global ethics for all of humankind.

Recenzii

"...an introduction to Li’s ethical thought, such as the bookunder review here, is a greatly needed contribution, as it illuminates facets ofhis thought that have, thus far, not been adequately dealt with by Westernscholars. Its author, Jana Rošker, professor at the University of Ljubljana, is oneof the leading Western scholars on modern Chinese philosophy and also on LiZehou’s thought." - Karl-Heinz Pohl, Trier University, Germany in Journal ofChinese Studies, No. 73

"Finding a suitable way that helps to sysytematize and interpret in a coherent manner such a profoundly rich work is a challenging task that Rošker’s work does not only execute masterfully but does it with style. This book is a must read for all enthusiasts of Chinese culture, both classical and modern, and a great guidebook for students of twentieth-century Chinese social and ethical thought." - Lehel Balogh,Hokkaido University in Religious Studies Review, Vol. 47, No. 3 (September 2021).
