The main objective of this unit is to introduce students to the great works of Chinese philosophy. This unit will give students a basic knowledge of the major schools of philosophical thought presented in their historical contexts. The emphasis is placed on three specific subjects: Confucianism, Taoism and the representation of the world from Buddhism. Thus the course focuses on the principles of practical morality (humanity, obedience to ritual, justice, truth, personal improvement, art) and exposes the deeply paradoxical conceptions of "emptiness", of "no -act”, “transformation”, etc., which have established themselves as the key notions of Chinese philosophy and which, today, are spreading throughout the world.
