Zhu Xi on the Ethics of Reading: Or, Philosophy as a Study Guide
Synopsis: The discipline of philosophy is notoriously Eurocentric. Changing this will require not only revising the content that we teach but rethinking the way that we teach it. In other words, in order to avoid simply slotting non-Western content into existing Eurocentric disciplinary structures, we must support revisions to our curriculum with interventions in our pedagogies and research methodologies. The Song-dynasty philosopher Zhu Xi helps us confront this fundamental question: What does it mean to "do" philosophy?
For Zhu Xi, the very act of reading a book palpably imprints on the mind of the reader. In the cases of particularly powerful books, such as the Chinese classics, this transformative act of reading not only advances learning but also brings the reader's heart-mind (xin 心) into accord with moral principle (li 理). Does this notion of philosophy as a practice of self-cultivation have a place in academia today? This presentation is an exploratory attempt to make room for Zhu Xi and his philosophical methodologies in both the educational and professional institutions of academic philosophy.
