This book collects the 25 most important articles written by Professor Tang since the 1980s, dealing extensively with issues of Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, Christianity and Chinese culture. In these articles, Professor Tang proves his value as a worthy successor to the Chinese philosophical tradition, while also open to the latest trends of thought both at home and abroad.   The late Professor Tang Yijie (1927-2014) was a prominent professor at Peking University and China’s top scholar on philosophy and Chinese studies. He spearheaded the Confucian Canon project (**), which seeks to compile all known classical works on Confucianism, comparable in scope and significance to the Complete Library of the Four Treasuries (****), the largest collection of books on Chinese history, which was commissioned by the Qianlong Emperor in the 18th century. Throughout his life, Professor Tang published scores of books and more than one hundred articles, offering enlightening insights into how to deal with issues that have historically troubled and continue to trouble people in modern society.   Among his numerous innovations, Professor Tang is especially remembered for introducing the concept of “harmony in diversity”（****）. In the context of “the clash of civilizations” championed by Samuel P. Huntington, Tang argued for harmony in diversity, holding that this principle can offer some clues to help enable peoples, nations, and regions with different cultural traditions to develop together while remaining unique. note: * represents Chinese character, please refer to BCC file.  .

This book collects sixteen theses written by Professor Tang Yijie, one of the most prominent scholars of traditional Chinese philosophy. He argues that a general understanding of traditional Chinese philosophy can be achieved by a concise elaboration of its truth, goodness and beauty. He also asserts that goodness and beauty in Chinese philosophy, combined with the integration of man and heaven, knowledge and practice, scenery and feeling, reflect a pursuit of an ideal goal in traditional Chinese philosophy characterized by the thought mode uniting man and nature. He also discusses the anti-traditionalism of the May Fourth Movement, explaining that the true value of “sagacity theory” in traditional Chinese philosophy, especially in Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming dynasties, lies in its insights into universal life. In addition, he stresses that existing ideas, issues, terminologies, concepts, and logic of Chinese philosophical thought were shaped by Western philosophy. It is necessary to be alienated from traditional status for the creation of a viable “Chinese philosophy.” “Modern Chinese philosophy” in the 1930s and 1940s was comprised of scholarly work that characteristically continued rather than followed the traditional discourse of Chinese philosophy. That is to say, in the process of studying and adapting Western philosophy, Chinese philosophers transformed Chinese philosophy from traditional to modern. In Chapter 13, he puts forward the idea of a “New Axial Age.” He emphasizes that the rejuvenation of Chinese culture we endeavor to pursue has to be deeply rooted in our mainstream culture with universal values incorporating cultures of other nations, especially the cultural essence of the West.

Entre le Christ souffrant et le sourire illuminé de Bouddha, entre le sentiment d'angoisse et l'invitation à la sérénité, les attitudes face à la mort diffèrent, divergent souvent entre les civilisations. Et particulièrement entre le monde chinois et la culture occidentale. Deux intellectuels, Tang Yi Jie et Xavier Le Pichon, ont accepté de confronter leurs vues sur ce thème essentiel de l'existence humaine. Pour le philosophe chinois, la mort est inscrite dès le début de la vie. A partir de son expérience personnelle, il tente de la réinscrire dans les sagesses traditionnelles comme le confucianisme et le taoïsme, à contre-courant du marxisme des dernières décennies. Géophysicien et professeur au Collège de France, Xavier Le Pichon choisit quant à lui de traiter du mystère de la mort dans une perspective chrétienne. A travers l'évocation sensible des derniers moments de ses parents, il partage son espérance dans la résurrection. Mais au-delà de ces deux approches, le souci est le même de rappeler que la mort est tout sauf simple destruction, de célébrer ce qu'elle porte de digne, et, en quelque sorte, de beau.
