Is it not primarily concerned with a comprehensive reconstruction of the philosophy of the thinkers discussed, but rather with the political and intellectual contextualisation of a line of thought that recognised the practical philosophy and state organisation of China as different from that of Europe, but equal to it and in some respects superior to it. This challenged the claim of theology that Christian revelation alone provided access to truth. The volume analyses the opposition to this line of thought, especially on the part of Protestant orthodoxy. It argues that in the German Enlightenment of the 18th century, the possibility emerged to conceive philosophy on the basis of reason as a phenomenon not limited to Europe but as a path followed under different conditions in China"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Jesuits $x Missions $z China. 610 27 $a Jesuits $2 fast 650 0 $a Philosophy, German $x Chinese influences. 650 0 $a Philosophy, German $y 18th century. 651 0 $a Germany $x Chinese influences. $x Chinese influences. 650 0 $a Enlightenment $z Germany. 650 6 $a Philosophie allemande $x Influence chinoise. 650 6 $a Philosophie allemande $y 18e siecle. 651 6 $a Allemagne $x Influence chinoise. $x Influence chinoise. 650 6 $a Siecle des Lumieres $z Allemagne. 650 7 $a Enlightenment $2 fast 650 7 $a Intellectual life $x Chinese influences $2 fast 650 7 $a Missions $2 fast 650 7 $a Philosophy, German $2 fast 651 7 $a China $2 fast 651 7 $a Germany $2 fast 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Horyna, Bretislav, 1959- $t Chinese thought in early German Enlightenment from Leibniz to Goethe $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill, [2023] $z 9789004544666 $w (DLC) 2023010998 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240217010938.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4FB16CAECD6211EE9507C16149ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
