À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Gu Yanwu pioneered the late-Ming and early Qing-era practice of Han Learning, or Evidential Learning, favoring practical over theoretical approaches to knowledge. He strongly encouraged scholars to return to the simple, ethical precepts of early Confucianism, and in his best-known work, Rizhi lu ( Record of Daily Knowledge ), he applied this paradigm to literature, government, economics, history, education, and philology. This volume includes translations of selected essays from Rizhi lu and Gu Yanwu's Shiwen Ji ( Collected Poems and Essays ), along with an introduction explaining the personal and political dimensions of the scholar's work. Gu Yanwu wrote the essays and poems featured in this volume while traveling across China during the decades immediately after the fall of the Ming Dynasty. They merge personal observation with rich articulations of Confucian principles and are, as Gu said, "not old coin but copper dug from the hills." Like many of his contemporaries, Gu Yanwu believed the Ming Dynasty had suffered from an overconcentration of power in its central government and recommended decentralizing authority while strengthening provincial self-government. In his introduction, Ian Johnston recounts Gu Yanwu's personal history and reviews his published works, along with their scholarly reception. Annotations accompany his translations, and a special essay on feudalism by Tang Dynasty poet and scholar Liu Zongyuan (773-819) provides insight into Gu Yanwu's later work on the subject.

Reviews
Readers will be able to touch Gu Yanwu's mind through these magnificently translated works. . . . A complete and comprehensive understanding of Gu Yanwu, his views on all subjects, his personality, and his emotion and political ambition as well. Many people would say it is not possible to translate poetry from one language into another. But by reading The Jingwei Bird , Autumn Hills , Wandering About , we are experiencing real beauty of poetry in both Chinese mind and English language and expressions., Gu Yanwu is a towering figure in modern Chinese thought, and the political ideas and research methods in his Record of Daily Knowledge inspired the major intellectual movements of the Qing Dynasty. Ian Johnston makes Gu's notoriously difficult writings accessible to English-language readers for the first time. Meticulously translated, Johnston's Gu is a gift to China studies and to the comparative history of political thought., Gu Yanwu's Record of Daily Knowledge consists of more than a thousand notes and essays he wrote after the collapse of Ming China in the seventeenth-century. For those who have the impression that Confucian political philosophy is essentially "applied virtue ethics," focusing on the cultivation of personal virtues of literati-officials, Gu offers a refreshing alternative vision of Confucianism as the art of statecraft, emphasizing the need for institutional reform, the balance of power, and the importance of a humane economy. Gu's hope for an ideal society, in which people are free from the domination of arbitrary political and economic power, still speaks to us today. In this sense, Ian Johnston's lucid and compelling translation is a timely gift., Readers will be able to touch Gu Yanwu's mind through these magnificently translated works. . . . We are experiencing real beauty of poetry in both Chinese mind and English language and expressions.
