Lo, Yuet Keung.

The destiny of the 'shen' (soul) and the genesis of early medieval Confucian metaphysics (221-587 A.D.). - 329 p.

Chair: Donald J. Munro.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Michigan, 1991.

This study traces the philosophical evolution of the idea of shen ("soul") and its ethicoreligious implications based on a series of debates over the immortality of shen that transpired in China from the fourth to the sixth century. Then, on the basis of the philosophical arguments developed in these debates, I shall trace the genesis of a Confucian metaphysics back to early medieval times (221-587 A.D.) when Confucianism was confronting the intellectual challenge of Buddhism. Scholars have believed that it was not until the burgeoning of Neo-Confucianism in the Song dynasty (960-1279) that a Confucian metaphysics was inspired by Buddhism and Daoism. This study, however, would challenge this conventional view and argue that as early as the fifth century Confucians already began to formulate a metaphysic of self-cultivation under the multiple influences of Neo-Daoism and Buddhism.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a In the study of world religions the English term "soul" appears to be one of the primary concerns and its various meanings overlap considerably in different religions. In order to understand what the historian of religions is actually concerned about, we need to let the religious idea, "soul," speak for itself in a given culture. This study shows that in Chinese religion, shen, as the ultimate source of ethical values, determined the conception of man and justified human dignity in an age of political and social turbulence. Hence, this study will alert the historian of religions to the cultural and philosophical factors that could possibly shape the conception of the "soul" in a culture.
