Publisher's description: Based on extensive research spanning almost two decades, this book is a pioneer presentation of the New Confucian Movement, a cultural movement which developed in China in the aftermath of the 1919 May Fourth Movement. Beginning with a brief history of the movement and the major ideas of three generations of leaders, Reinventing Confucianism is a complete survey from the 1920s to the present. The body of the book offers, in separate chapters, the life and thought of eleven main figures representative of the first and second generations of the New Confucian Movement, all of whom were important figures of the philosophical development of China in the 20th century. They are: Ling Shuming, the forerunner of the movement; Ma Yifu, the Confucian hermit; Xiong Shili, the metaphysician; Zhang Junmai, an advocate of political democracy; Feng Youlan, the renowned philosopher; He Lin, a follower of Hegel; Qian Mu, the historian; Fang Dongmei, the philosophical poet; Ta
