The History of Chinese Philosophy

Humankind, across all civilizations, has been asking the same philosophical questions since the beginning of time. In part one of a two-part course, Laszlo Montgomery explores the philosophy that came from China’s most renowned thinkers from pre-Confucian and Confucian times. The different philosophies of these Ru School thinkers, as well as their detractors, will be explored. In part two of the course, Laszlo shifts the focus to the I Ching, Legalism, Daoism, and Neo-Confucianism.
