Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This course will cover major topics in Confucianism, giving particular attention to its notion of role-based ethics and its approach to social and political philosophy. It is intended to be introductory, so knowledge of Chinese will not be required (though it would be useful).
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Students will be evaluated on the basis of attendance/participation, an in-class presentation, and a final essay. The course will be conducted in English, so students should be skilled at listening and speaking. Written assignments will be accepted in either English or German.Student attendance is required, unless prior approval is obtained. Students are encouraged to come up with their own essay questions/topics in consultation with the instructor, however pre-formulated questions/topics are ready for assignment, should the need arise. Students will also be responsible for making one short presentation introducing a topic from one or more of the texts being discussed in class (presentations to be assigned on an ad-hoc basis). Finally, students will also be responsible for a presentation of their initial work on their final paper during the final class sessions.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
This course aims most immediately at helping students to understand the basic concepts, terms, and approaches characteristic of early Confucian thought with the further goals of giving students tools with which to call major assumptions of the Euro-American philosophical tradition into question and to reflect upon the implications of these philosophies within contemporary East Asia.
Prüfungsstoff
The course will proceed as a seminar with students being expected to make significant contribution to classroom discussions. The instructor will lead the discussions, with the hope that in the later weeks of the class students will take more responsibility for this task as they become accustomed to Confucianism. Students will be given a few questions prior to each class upon which to write short written reflections, with the understanding that these will serve as the basis for discussion. The seminar will focus on selections from major texts in the Confucian tradition and will proceed more or less chronologically.
