This book identifies that “Xiang thinking” is the eidetic connotation and a fundamental trait of traditional Chinese thinking, offering insights of considerable methodological significance. "Xiang thinking" is a mode of thinking different from conceptual thinking or idealized rational thinking and, in a certain sense, it is more primal. In the past century, particularly since 1949, the primary works on Chinese philosophical history have, as a rule, addressed the ancient Chinese tradition of philosophical ideas by virtue of the philosophies of Plato, Descartes and Hegel: methods that inherently challenge Chinese philosophical insights. This has naturally led to the fact that the insights as such remained obscured. This book starts to reverse this trend, intending to help Chinese people understand and appraise themselves in a more down-to-earth fashion. In addition, it is particularly helpful to people of other cultures if they want to understand ancient Chinese philosophy and culture in a context of fresh and inspiring philosophical ideas.

Il a fait scandale en publiant quelques années plus tôt le Livre à brûler et le Livre à cacher, dans lesquels il dénonce avec autant de verve que de passion le confucianisme mandarinal de l'époque, touchant par certains de ses arguments les plus pénétrants aux fondements mêmes de l'idéologie dominante. Son œuvre est officiellement proscrite dès l'année de sa mort et restera interdite - mais lue par quelques-uns, en cachette jusqu'au début du 20enbsp; si...
