This dissertation is an analysis and translation of the I-hsueh ch'i-meng, a work by the most consummate of Chinese philosophers, Chu Hsi (1130-1200). This work provides us with his insight into the Book of Changes and a statement of the cosmology he sees implicit in it. The Changes is a seminal work in the history of Chinese thought. It has become the repository of the most fundamental intellectual assumptions that determine the patterns of thought and values in Chinese religion and philosophy. It is also the most enigmatica and difficult of the Chinese classics. Still, an understanding of it is a necessary prerequisite to a thorough comprehension of Chinese religion and philosophy in general, and it is an absolute imperative for an understanding of Neo-Confucianism. In the Ch'i-meng Chu Hsi seeks to understand the basic meanings at the core of the Changes, in doing so he attempts a viable reconcilliations of the i-li {duties and principles} and hsiang-shu {images and numbers} modes of Changes interpretation, which he felt was necessary to complete his earlier work the Chou-i pen-i. This work provides his fullest treatment of the work of Shao Yung whose understanding of the Changes provides a useful complement to Ch'eng I's I-chuan. This helps to secure Shao Yung's place in the developing Neo-Confucian tradition. On the basis of the cosmological insight expressed in the diagrams of the Ho-t'u and the Lo-shu Chu Hsi seeks to establish the origins of the Changes, and through an examination of the hsien-t'ien and hou-t'ien arrangements of the pa-kua he seeks to bring together the cosmogonic significance of the diagrams of the t'ai-chi offerred by Chou Tun-i and Shao Yung. This work may also be considered as Chu Hsi's final statement on the crucial concept of t'ai-chi on which hinges his synthesis of Neo-Confucian metaphysics. It is my intention that a careful study of the Ch'i-meng, which expresses what one of China's greatest philosophers considered as the indigenous cosmology of the Chinese world-view, will help to bridge the "cosmological gulf" that exists between China and the West.Subjects--Topical Terms:
