{"product_id":"transcendence-and-non-naturalism-in-early-chinese-thought","title":"Transcendence and Non-Naturalism in Early Chinese Thought","description":"\u003cp\u003eContemporary scholars of Chinese philosophy often presuppose that early China possessed a naturalistic worldview, devoid of any non-natural concepts, such as transcendence. Challenging this presupposition head-on, Joshua R. Brown and Alexus McLeod argue that non-naturalism and transcendence have a robust and significant place in early Chinese thought. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book reveals that non-naturalist positions can be found in early Chinese texts, in topics including conceptions of the divine, cosmogony, and apophatic philosophy. Moreover, by closely examining a range of early Chinese texts, and providing comparative readings of a number of Western texts and thinkers, the book offers a way of reading early Chinese Philosophy as consistent with the religious philosophy of the East and West, including the Abrahamic and the Brahmanistic religions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCo-written by a philosopher and theologian, this book draws out unique insights into early Chinese thought, highlighting in particular new ways to consider a range of Chinese concepts, including \u003ci\u003etian\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003edao\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eli\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eyou\/wu. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54252387533144,"sku":"9781350204034","price":40.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781350204034.jpg?v=1777096856","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/transcendence-and-non-naturalism-in-early-chinese-thought","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
