Features: The series "Modernity and Humanities in China" is not merely a general participation in discussions on core issues of the era, but rather consciously recognizes two interconnected aspects of modernity studies: "Chinese modernity"; second, humanities in the context of modernity. These form the core focus of this series, aiming to contribute to our research and reflection on modernity issues through this central theme. It highlights a vast research space, advocating for a continuous, localized study of specific problems, attempting to approach this goal from different perspectives and angles. For Chinese humanities scholars, whether it is Chinese modernity or humanities in the context of modernity, both are quintessentially "self-oriented learning." This book is one of them, exploring a modernity examination of the debates on the Buddhist concept of innate enlightenment.
