Kim, Jung-Yeup, Zhang, Zai
Qi氣(“vital energy”) is one of the most important concepts in Chinese philosophy and culture, and neo-Confucian Zhang Zai (1020-1077) plays a pivotal role in developing the notion. An investigation of his philosophy ofqiis not confined to his particularity, but sheds light upon the notion ofqias it is understood within Chinese and East Asian thought in general. Yet, his position has not been given a thorough philosophical analysis in contemporary times. The purpose of this book is to provide a thorough andproperunderstanding of Zhang Zai’s philosophy ofqi.Zhang Zai’s Philosophy ofQi: A Practical Understandingfocuses on the practical argument underlying Zhang Zai’s development ofqithat emphasizes the endeavor to create meaningful coherence amongst our differences through mutual communication and transformation. In addition to this, the book compares and engages Zhang Zai’s philosophy ofqiwith John Dewey’s philosophy of aesthetic experience in order to make Zhang Zai’s position more plausible and relevant to the contemporary Western audience.
