How to be moral: Practical tips from a Choson Confucian

September 5, 3:30pm - 4:30pm
Mānoa Campus, Center for Korean Studies

Tasan Chŏng Yagyong (1762-1836) believed that many of the core assumptions of Neo-Confucian philosophy made it more difficult for men and women to develop the ability to act the way they knew they should act. He proposed an alternative understanding of human nature and virtue. This talk will introduce some of Tasan’s practical tips on how to be moral.
