Zhu Shunshui's (1600-1682) direct or indirect contact with scholars of the Zhu Xi school, the Yangming school or even the Old Text school in the early Tokugawa period had a great influence on the development of Confucianism in Japan. Through a comprehensive review of Zhu Shunshui's essays, correspondences and many writings from his disciples, it was found that he often expressed his viewpoints to Japanese government officials and scholars. Zhu Shunshui stayed in Nagasaki, Edo, and Mito. Nevertheless, his promotion of Confucianism can be traced from Kashima (modern Saga), to Yanagawa (modern Fukuoka) to Kaga (modern Ishikawa) around the Sea of Japan-all places he had never been. This paper is focused on the study of (1) the development of a broad-ranging Confucianism in the early Tokugawa period and (2) the perspective of Zhu Shunshui and the development of Mito Confucianism, and the fundamental principles of Confucianism-the concepts of ceremonial rites, xing jiaoyu xing lizhi (promote education, perform rituals), and yang junde qin xianshi (develop a sovereign virtue, get close to virtuous gentlemen) between Zhu Shunshui and Tokugawa Mitukuni (1628-1700) and its impact on the practices of rites advocated by Seignior Mito. |
