The three traditions are frequently referred to as three paths of moral teachings. In this book, Mou provides a clear account of the textual corpus that emerges to define each of these traditions and how this canonical axis was augmented by a continuing commentarial tradition as each generation reauthorized the written core for their own time and place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eIn his careful exegesis, Mou lays out the differences between the more religious reading of these traditions with their defining practices that punctuate the human journey through life, and the more intellectual and philosophical treatment of the texts that has and continues to produce a first-order culture of annotation that become integral to the traditions themselves.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the center of the alternative religious experience reflected throughout the teachings of Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism is the project of personal cultivation as it comes to be expressed as robust growth in family and communal relations. For Mou, these three highly distinctive and yet complementary ways of thinking and living constitute a kind of moral ecology, wherein each of them complements the others as they stand in service to a different dimension of the human need for an educated spirituality.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zhongjian Mou\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9811972052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789811972058\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/02\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.31d","brand":"Zhongjian Mou","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123055161599,"sku":"9789811972058","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b67687be-e412-4edb-8b1d-96cf9fa1567e.jpg?v=1687428661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-brief-history-of-the-zhongjian-mou-9789811972058","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
