Crossing Paths over the Pacific

A comparative investigation of Emerson's Transcendental thought and Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism, this book shows how both thinkers traced the human morality to the same source in the ultimately moral nature of the universe and developed theories of the interrelation of universal law and the human mind.

Rezensionen

"Takanashi's comparative work is detailed and thought-provoking, and the book stands as a welcome contribution toward addressing the importance of neo-Confucian influences on the reception of Asian philosophy in America." (Leah Kalmanson, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 44 (01), March, 2018)
