From Chinese Cosmology to English Romanticism

Více o knize

The book delves into the influence of Chinese cosmology, particularly the concept of humanity's unity with heaven, on early-modern English and European thought. It examines the Chinese rites controversy, Spinoza's philosophical contributions, the evolution of English garden design, and the poetic innovations of Coleridge and Wordsworth. By tracing these connections, it highlights how Eastern ideas shaped Western philosophy and aesthetics during a transformative period.
