This seminar is designed to deepen the understanding of the fundamental purpose and development of Confucian thought by exploring the characteristics and aspects of the development of the humanities in ancient China, focusing on Confucius and Zengzi.
Through the lively discussions, we were able to learn about the current state of research on ancient Confucianism and Confucianism in contemporary Chinese academia, especially on Zengzi, who is widely regarded as a disciple of Confucius, but whose actual ideas are less clear. In this context, we were able to not only expand our understanding of the concept of virtue, but also to take a new look at the meaning of 'Shindok' emphasized by Zengzi. Furthermore, it was a meaningful occasion to share and discuss recent research results from Korea and China.
