Ur baksidestexten: Confucianism has played a dominant role in East Asian and Southeast Asian cultures for over two millennia. It is no exaggeration to say that in many respects, it has guided the social, political and philosophical development of Chinese, Korean and Japanese civilizations as well as the cultures of Southeast Asia. Founded by Confucius (551-479 B.C.), the tradition championed the idea that all people have within them the capacity to become thorougly moral. By cultivating their individual morality, people would be able to create a world free of strife, a world in which individuals would act out of moral regard for one another. This book by Rodney L. Taylor, a leading scholar of Confucianism and its religious interpretation, introduces the origins of the ancient traditon and explores its role in the arts and popular culture. The author also discusses the pivotal ways in which Confucianism differs from other religious traditions. // Originalprislapp finns på bakre pärmen. Bilden avser den aktuella boken.
