Meanwhile, intellectuals and social commentators throughout greater China have looked to the Chinese ethical tradition for resources to evaluate the role of traditional cultural values in the contemporary world. Publications on early Chinese ethics have tended to focus uncritical attention toward Confucianism, while neglecting Daoism, Mohism, and shared features of Chinese moral psychology. This book aims to rectify this imbalance with provocative interpretations of classical ethical theories including widely neglected views of the Mohists and newly reconstructed accounts of the "embodied virtue" tradition, which ties ethics to physical cultivation. The volume also addresses the broader question of the value of comparative philosophy generally and of studying early Chinese ethics in particular. The book should have a wide readership among professional scholars and graduate students in Chinese philosophy, specifically Confucian ethics, Daoist ethics, and comparative ethics. 606 $aEthics$zChina 606 $aPhilosophy, Chinese$vEarly works to 1800 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEthics 615 0$aPhilosophy, Chinese 676 $a170.931 701 $aFraser$b Chris$01042572 701 $aRobins$b Dan$01042573 701 $aO'Leary$b Timothy$01042574 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457807203321 996 $aEthics in Early China$92466913 997 $aUNINA
