Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Hawai'i at Manoa, 1990.

This work argues that an understanding of "proper timing" plays an important role in the diverse sociopolitical philosophies contained in the Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu. The work is not entirely exegetical, it also argues that reconstructing the eclectic philosophies in the LSCC can provide avenues for developing contemporary conceptions of time, human nature, political order, social and environmental ethics.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This work argues that an understanding of "proper timing" plays an important role in the diverse sociopolitical philosophies contained in the Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu. The work is not entirely exegetical, it also argues that reconstructing the eclectic philosophies in the LSCC can provide avenues for developing contemporary conceptions of time, human nature, political order, social and environmental ethics.
520 $a The introductory chapter explores the archaic Shang and classical Chou dynasty conceptions of "time" (shih), arguing that the mythological interpretation often appealed to in the study of ancient culture does not fit their world view. The second chapter analyzes the eclectic conceptions of human nature which underlie the sociopolitical philosophies contained in the Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu. The dominant model which emerges is that human nature is an achievement concept. This is especially true for the ruler as representative of humanity. The quality of the ruler's achievements in self-cultivation has a direct bearing on his ability to properly articulate time--both seasonal and climatic changes, and historic and cultural transformation. The Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu draws an analogy between human nature and social order. Following the lead of this analogy, chapter three develops an achievement notion of human society, arguing that sociopolitical order is constituted by historical, cultural, and cosmic conditions orchestrated by a wise ruler. An organic instrumentalist position begins to emerge from the diverse theories of Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu. The fourth chapter explicates the cosmic, historical, and interpersonal role of proper timing in the Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu.
520 $a The conclusion develops these insights gained from a study of the Lu-shih ch'un-ch'iu. After arguing that human imagination opens up horizons for cross cultural studies, some suggestions for modern philosophy are proposed. I suggest a meld of theory of relativity and phenomenological conceptions of time, generating an interactive articulation of time theory. Political order emerges from culture. I also argue for an organic contract theory based on a social role ethic which has ramification for the role of timing in personal and environmental ethics.
