Features: This book primarily discusses how Mr. Tang Junyi extends the intelligence of Chinese philosophy to elaborate on the spiritual values of Chinese culture. On one hand, it comprehensively examines the historical development of Chinese culture, and on the other, it explores the natural and cosmic worldview, the theory of mind and nature, the moral ideals of life, the religious spirit and metaphysical belief, the spirit of literature and art, as well as the enduring worlds of the human realm, the realm of personality, and the metaphysical belief. Finally, it also discusses the integration and harmonization of Chinese and Western cultures. This book is an excellent work by Mr. Tang Junyi in providing a comprehensive overview of Chinese culture. Against the backdrop of what differs between Western cultural thought and Chinese culture, Mr. Tang extends the intelligence of Chinese philosophy to give a macroscopic description of the spiritual essence of Chinese culture, clarifies the entanglements between Chinese and Western cultures over the past century, and reveals the future prospects of Chinese culture. It can be said to achieve both breadth and precision. Therefore, given the profound meaning and the rich and thought-provoking issues discussed in this book, Mr. Tang was also aware that this work surpasses his previous writings.
