Call for papers

Constructing and Interpreting the Daotong (Transmission of the Way) in the
Perspective of Chinese and Korean Neo-Confucianism

International conference organised by:

-          The Centre of Chinese Studies (CEC, ASIEs, Inalco),

-          The Centre of Korean Studies (CECO, ASIEs, Inalco)

-          The Institute of Confucian Philosophy and Culture (Sungkyunkwan
University, Seoul)

The organising committee is pleased to invite colleagues and Ph.D students
interested in Neo-Confucianism to submit abstracts for this international
conference regarding the construction and (re-)interpretations of the
Daotong. Its objective is to re-examine the process through which
Neo-Confucian discourse was legitimated by promoting the notion of
Transmission of the Way, both in Chinese and Korean contexts. The conference
will discuss the following questions: should we distinguish a stage of
Transmission of the Way (daotong) from one of Dao Learning (daoxue), as
suggested by Yu Ying-shi? How did Chinese and Korean Neo-Confucians develop
their doctrine in the lineage of Dao Learning? Why did Zhu Xi’s school
dominate Korean Neo-Confucianism? What is the validity of Mou Zongsan’s
division of the Chinese Neo-Confucian tradition into two or three branches?

The conference will also be an opportunity to review new methodologies
dealing with research on Neo-Confucianism in both philosophical and
historical perspectives.
