Fang, Tang Junyi and Huayan Thought , King Pong Chiu discusses Thomé H. Fang and Tang Junyi, two of the most important Confucian thinkers in twentieth-century China, who appropriated aspects of the medieval Chinese Buddhist school of Huayan to develop a response to the challenges of ?scientism?, the belief that quantitative natural science is the only valuable part of human learning and the only source of truth. As Chiu argues, Fang?s and Tang?s selective appropriations of Huayan thought paid heed to the hermeneutical importance of studying ancient texts in order to be more responsive to modern issues, and helped confirm the values of Confucianism under the challenge of ?scientism?, a topic widely ignored in academia. 410 0$aModern Chinese philosophy ;$vVolume 8. 606 $aPhilosophy, Confucian 606 $aScientism 615 0$aPhilosophy, Confucian. 615 0$aScientism. 676 $a181/.112 700 $aChiu$b King Pong$01465284 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798600003321 996 $aThome?
