Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote in Nature, 'The moral law lies at the centre of nature and radiates to the circumference' The great Chinese synthesizer of Neo-Confucian philosophy Zhu Xi expressed a similar idea in the twelfth century: 'In the realm of Heaven and Earth it is this moral principle alone that flows everywhere.' Emerson and Zhu Xi, though living in different ages and cultures, traced the human morality to the same source in the ultimately moral nature of the universe, and developed theories of the interrelation of universal law and the human mind. This book offers a comparative investigation of Emerson's Transcendental thought and Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism.
