Beschreibung
This book was compiled, at the request of the CITIC Press, by Liang Peikuan (1925-2021), the son of Liang Shuming (1893-1988). Liang Shuming was known as the "Last Confucian," the "Last Buddhist," the "Hidden Buddhist," a "lifelong activist," a "unifier of thought and action," and so on. Part I "The Spirit of the Chinese Culture" is a collection of excerpts from Liang Shumings previous publications, including his most famous Eastern and Western Cultures and Their Philosophies (1922). Part II "China and the West: Two Different Paths of Social Evolution" and Part III "The Need to Bring into Union Chinas Strengths and Foreign Strengths" are the first reprints of what Liang Shuming wrote more than seventy years ago, between 1942 and 1949, too late to be included in the Complete Works of Liang Shuming (1989-1993). The book looks at the cultural destiny of China, as Liang perceived it, of course.
