Really glad I picked up this volume during my time at Tsinghua! It's a fun read and gives a great overview of the views on Confucius and his time that Chinese scholars traditionally hold and that circulate among the public. #ChinesePhilosophy #Sinology

At the DVCS, I will discuss how in Jiang Qing‘s 蔣慶 reading of Gonyang Confucian revenge as 大復仇 Chinese and Western, classical and modern ideas converge to form a new interpretation under the guise of classical exegesis. Excited to see what colleagues have in store! #ChinesePhilosophy #Sinology

One of the treasures from the book haul during my recent trip to China is this copy of the Collected Works of Liao Ping 廖平全集. Hoping to dedicate my postdoc to his thought, I really wanted a paper copy. And even the parcel box did not disappoint! #戊戌變法 #ChinaBooks #Sinology #ChinesePhilosophy

On my flight back from Fuzhou, I watched a new 4-part documentary on the Chunqiu 春秋. I definitely recommend it, as it gives a great overview of the text's history up to the end of the Qing. It also features today's famous Gongyang scholars! #Sinology #ChinesePhilosophy sdxw.iqilu.com/w/article/YS...

Some insights into the conference @marcopouget.bsky.social and I attended this week. The scholars, topics, venue, and food - everything was so well organized, and the university and 簡逸光 were truly generous! Looking forward to our published papers #ChinesePhilosophy #Sinology

Over the past two days, Fujian Normal University held a conference on the textual and historic world of the Lunyu 論語. I was very happy to present my research on chapter 16, the Ji Clan 季氏, and its structure. #ChinesePhilosophy

I also feel very grateful for the great tour of 鼓山 we participated in afterwards. After last year‘s 武夷山-tour, this is the second place on Zhu Xi‘s 朱熹 path I traced in person. #ChinesePhilosophy #Sinology

"The volume is an inspiring read … it is already a commendable effort to make an ancient East Asian religious tradition seem fresh and relevant for important topical discussions in the humanities." — Religious Studies Review

My recent post in the All About Asia series explained the concept of yuánfèn, and today I describe a real-life situation when I came across an example of yuánfèn.
