Description
Summary:In this book, Xin Conan-Wu presents a radically revisionist analysis on Zhu Xi's (1130-1200) Neo-Confucian philosophy of education. She argues that landscape and poems in twelfth-century academies bespeak his natural pedagogy and reveal unsuspected contributions to Chinese cultural sensibility by this emblematic figure of a stultifying orthodoxy.
"In this book, Xin Conan-Wu presents a radically revisionist argument on Zhu Xi's (1130-1200) Neo-Confucian philosophy of education. Via analysis of unfamiliar landscapes and the poems of the White-Deer Grotto Academy, Yuelu Academy, and Wuyi Retreat, Conan-Wu argues that when praxis speaks for orthodoxy, the eclipsed pedagogue casts a liberal light on the enshrined philosopher. Neo-Confucian senses of the gaze and place engendered Zhu Xi's natural pedagogy and mapped the environment of his academies. Conan-Wu cross-examines the textual traces and their innate vision, the physical sites and their transhistorical milieu, the Eight Views and Nine Bends and their afterlives in China and Korea. It unfurls an academy education, mutually reinforced by classical learning and self-cultivation, and sustained by a lure of the Supreme Joy of Confucian sagehood"--
