Series: Historical Dictionaries of Religions, Philosophies, and Movements Series

This book is devoted exclusively to Confucianism, the great Chinese tradition that has gathered around the teachings of Confucius (Kongzi) for over 2,500 years. Confucianism encompasses a broad array of moral, social, philosophical and religious ideas, values and practices. It is an ancient and immense tradition of great subtlety and complexity. This work provides a user with ready access to terms, personalities, movements, and texts of the tradition as it has made its trek across East Asia, especially to Korea and Japan.

Historical Dictionary of Confucianism contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 700 cross-referenced entries on terms, personalities, movements, and texts of the tradition as it has made its trek across East Asia, especially to Korea and Japan. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Confucianism.
