Confucian and Kant ethics have deeply "moral" meaning, depending on the ethics of responsibility and purpose rather than seek a means of happiness; but the difference between the two is that: For the purposes of luck, Kant pursue the inevitability of morality, respectively, from the reality and ideal two levels kill luck; Then Confucianism will be condensed into the sense of doom, and thus constitute a force of moral practice. On happy terms, Kant alienation in the real level of happiness, only placed the "ethics and good fortune are consistent” in the postulate being of "immortality of the soul" and "the existence of God". But Confucian experience the same recognition as the world's happiness has its chance, but " ethics and good fortune are consistent "is not necessarily just an abstract mysterious talk. It can realize concretely in the realm life of" helping achieve oneself, others, and everything in the world".

Secondly, cognitive function of Xin and principle of Jing-Yin showed that human being could dominate the evolution of the universe. Furthermore, Four Chapters of Guanzi paid more attention to Yin, because it not only contributed to understanding Dao and the mature of universe, but also integrated ordinary language and discourse about Dao as a whole. Related Articles | Metrics Select The Concept of Responsibility in the Textbooks on Self-cultivation in the Early Years of the Republic of China GU Hong-liang Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (5): 25-32.   Abstract （820）   HTML （13）    PDF （474KB）（1225）       Knowledge map    The introduction of Western theories of free will and rights into China since the late Qing Dynasty helped to open a new perspective for modern intellectuals to understand responsibility. In other words, responsibility became a modern value. An examination on the concept of responsibility in the textbooks on self-cultivation in the early years of the Republic of China will show us an unfamiliar theoretical discourse. In the frame of moral responsibility, these textbooks give a more reasonable justification for the undertaking of moral responsibility in combing the theory of free will with the doctrine of the innate knowledge of good. The acceptance of legal obligation, besides moral responsibility, results in a modern transformation in Confucian idea of responsibility. While at the level of law, rights and obligations are equal, at the level of ethics, moral responsibility precedes moral rights: one can enjoy his or her moral rights only if he or she has borne his or her moral responsibility well. In teaching people a normal system of responsibility, these textbooks really attempt to lead modern Chinese people to become Confucians with a sense of responsibility. They are aimed at fostering modern Confucians rather than constructing the identity of modern national members.

In Liji, daily life and political life are founded on and then justified and authorized by the ultimate natural order in all things under heaven. Knowing the world and knowing human are united in connecting nature, life and politics. Therefore, we should take consideration of and show respect for the dimension of nature in human activities so as to achieve the harmony between human behavior and natural order. Related Articles | Metrics Select The Philosophical Implications of “Listening”: Centering on the relationship between “Listening”, “a Sound” and “the Human Being” WU Long Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (5): 46-51.   Abstract （820）   HTML （13）    PDF （462KB）（1513）       Knowledge map    It seems that we have ignored “listening” as an important way to know the world and ourselves. The ancient Chinese character for “listening” itself embodies well a deep philosophical understanding: by listening we reach and obtain something with our ears. In terms of the relation between “a sound” and “listening”, we can make a distinction between listening to “a sound” and listening to “silence”, i.e., the sound of heart. As the agent of listening, the human being exists in the whole practical process of listening, which cannot be merely understood as an instant action. One can also recognize a different world and a different self through “listening”. Related Articles | Metrics Select The Ontological Concern of New Confucianism and the Trend of Chinese Philosophy in Future JIANG Guo-bao Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (2): 46-51.   Abstract （852）   HTML （11）    PDF （1740KB）（1608）       Knowledge map    Although new Confucianism hasn’t been developed consciously to promote the process of modern Chinese philosophy, its ontological concern does make up the disadvantage of modern Chinese philosophy, that is, jumping over the age of ontology into the age of epistemology. In this manner, modern Confucianism has not only carried forward modern Chinese philosophy objectively, but also revealed the trend of Chinese philosophy in future. In the ontological constructing of Xiong Shili, Fang Dongmei, Feng Youlan, Tang Junyi and Mou Zongsan, we can see the possible trend of Chinese philosophy. Related Articles | Metrics Select Kang Youwei’s Doctrine of Great Unity and World Political Order: A New Philosophical Dream LIU Liang-jian Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (2): 52-58.   Abstract （1004）   HTML （134）    PDF （1700KB）（2701）       Knowledge map    Kang Youwei develops a theory of world political order in his Book of Great Unity in an age of competing among nation-states. He advocates a world state with great unity to go beyond the separation and conflict among nation-states. Zhao Tingyang echoes Kang Youwei to some degree in his project of tianxia system. A dialogue among Kang Youwei, Zhao Tingyang, Kant, Habermas and Thomas Pogge leads us to have a new understanding of the significance of a world state, which is “a discarded choice” in Kant.

However, the lack of adequate knowledge of the particularity of the Book of Changes as the remains of primeval culture has resulted in frequent misunderstandings and misjudgments in its study. The perspective of cultural anthropology and poetics can help us critically think over such issues as whether Confucius wrote the Commentaries on the Book of Changes, whether the Commentaries were factually written after the Book, which school the Book of Changes belonged to, and who wrote the Book of Changes. With this perspective and method, a new prospect will open up for the study of the Book of Changes as well as Chinese literature in the Pre-Qin period.

No clear consensus concerning folk beliefs could be reached in the last century, and how to deal with folk beliefs has remained a bewildering issue for the government. This paper tries to outline the evolution of the academic views of folk beliefs so as to provide some suggestions for making corresponding countermeasures.

On the contrary, at the outset of the Analects, Confucius advocates “to learn and at due times apply what one has learnt,” which instructs human beings to realize the propensities of nature (tianming) through selfcultivation. The first paragraph of the Analects actually tells us the three spiritual stages of Confucius, who is regarded as the spiritual symbol of Chinese culture. Related Articles | Metrics Select The Meaning of Linking Verbs in Ancient Chinese Thought LI Xiao-Chun Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (3): 111-115.   Abstract （1417）   HTML （5）    PDF （1803KB）（1280）       Knowledge map    Constructed out of meaning clumps or meaning chains, Chinese thought is characterized by “typical images” (faxiang). The linking verbs found in ancient Chinese emerged from five different approaches, which were more or less tied to a way of thinking by means of typical images. Concerning these five approaches, “referring” functions as the core of meaning of linking verbs. Although “ji” is not a typical linking verb in the context of Western philosophy, it really demonstrates the essence of linking verbs in Chinese thought by expressing an intimate relationship occupying the intervals between meaning chains. Related Articles | Metrics Select Movement and Stillness in Wei Zhuangqu’s Doctrine of The Ground of Nature (Tiangen) WANG Ge Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (3): 116-121.   Abstract （1416）   HTML （4）    PDF （1801KB）（1573）       Knowledge map    According to Huang Zongxi, Wei Zhuangqu’s doctrine of the ground of nature (tiangen) reflected a slight transformation from the NeoConfucianism of the Song Dynasty to that of the Ming Dynasty. However, this is not the true story. As a sincere follower of Cheng and Zhu’s doctrines, Wei only tried to reach a kind of monism based on the doctrine of cultivation characterized by stillness, and his doctrine of tiangen might reveal some opportunities for transformation of movement solely on the level of cultivation. Through a comparative study of tiangen and tianji, we can also find some similarities and distinctions between Wei Zhuangqu and the scholars of the Yangming school. Related Articles | Metrics Select A Study on the Basic Structure of Confucius together with Daoists in the Appendices to the Book of Changes FU Hui-Sheng Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (1): 90-104.   Abstract （1139）   HTML （3）    PDF （1534KB）（1776）       Knowledge map    Modern and contemporary studies of the Appendices to the Book of Changes (Yi Zhuan) often focused on different schools of thought implied in it. Some insisted that Appendices should be written by Confucius, some held that it was written by Daoist scholars, and some by scholars of the YinYang School. The textual analysis of Appendices may bring us a new and rational substantial understanding of Appendices. In it, those different expositions of what the Book of Changes  was and how it reflected the world mainly reflected understandings of different schools in the phase of “hundred school contention” of the whole Warring States Period, a unique traditional cultural phenomenon. The Book of Changes, based on the early Western Zhou ruling thought and culture, gradually became our nation’s rational philosophical writing instead of a mysterious divination book after Confucius’ and Daoists’ rational studies. And meanwhile, the Appendices to the Book of Changes also became a truly philosophical writing with profound ancient Chinese culture, and its basic structure of Confucius together with Daoists and scholars of changes was formed. Such an understanding may have a certain academic referential value in evaluating Confucius’ thought and historical position and reexamining ancient Chinese histories of philosophy, changeology and Confucianism. Related Articles | Metrics Select How to Unite Universal Love with Particular Love  ——A Focus on SongMing NeoConfucianist Theory of Humanity and Righteousness CHEN Qiao-Jian Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (1): 105-110.   Abstract （1389）   HTML （6）    PDF （1536KB）（1413）       Knowledge map    Both Confucius and Mencius initiated an ethical theory of humanity (ren) and righteousness (yi). The nature of humanity was aiming at a kind of universal love, and the implication of righteousness was aiming at humanity and also a regulation of humanity. The principle of righteousness found expression in the graded particular love embraced in universal love. NeoConfucianism succeeded and developed original Confucianism’s theory of humanity and righteousness, and especially provided a set of ontological proof through its theory of “all things as one” and “one as multiplicity”. The opposition and unity of humanity and righteousness reflects the opposition and unity of Confucian ethical universality and particularity. This also conforms to the real life world. Related Articles | Metrics Select New Ethical Dimensions in Thoughts of the Qianjia School WU Xiao-Fan Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (1): 111-117.   Abstract （1340）   HTML （3）    PDF （1538KB）（1487）       Knowledge map    In the perspective of moral philosophy, traditional ethics, especially NeoConfucian, was criticized and expanded by the Qianjia School from four aspects. Firstly, instead of basing virtues on an ontological foundation of principle, the Qianjia School argued that the source of morality was rooted in the rite. Then the Qianjia School protested a naturalistic view of human nature opposing to the NeoConfucian transcendental humanity. Thirdly, morality was evaluated by behaviors and affections not as to motivations. In the end, the ideal moral personality was not still a sage but an ordinary person who abided rites. The point view of the Qianjia School ethics is indispensable to explain the occurrence of Chinese modernity. Related Articles | Metrics Select A Rectification of Some Punctuative Errors in the Article “Records of the Renshu Building” Appended in the Book of An Examination of FANG Yi-zhi’s Integrity in His Later Years ZHANG Yong-Yi Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2012, 44 (1): 118-122.   Abstract （1366）   HTML （3）    PDF （1612KB）（1338）       Knowledge map    The short article titled “Records of the Renshu Building”, which is compiled in the third volume of Qing Yuan Zhi Lue, is very important to understand the thought of oldage FANG Yizhi. Professor YU Yingshi has punctuated this article in his book of An Examination of FANG Yizhi’s Integrity in His Later Years (FANG Yizhi Wanjie Kao)，but those punctuation marks still have some errors.
