Abstract: | This essay analyzes how the zhengming ???? theory of Confucius is linked to the problem of ??observances of form?? in light of the methodology of Confucian aesthetics.

This is because the aesthetic structure that appears peculiar in the Analects constitutes the ??name-shape?? paradigm. In this aesthetic structure, what is ultimately important is ??form.?? |
