英文摘要 |
This article begins with a discussion of Heidegger's philosophy of humans' being on earth, especially the quadruple dwelling in the fourfold structure of Heaven-Earth-God-Man. A geographical phenomenology of human beings' solicitude for their spatial environment shall be introduced to interpret the thoughts and practices of some ancient Chinese Confucianphilosophers. This approach of interpretation shall be taken further to illustrate the attachments of three contemporary neo-Confucian philosophers —Tang Junyi, Mou Tsungsan and Xu Fuguan — to their homelands during their lives of constantly being displaced. The purpose of this article is mainly to manifest a longstanding Confucian tradition by showing its deep concern for environmental ethics; moreover, it also attempts to highlight Chinese Confucians' permanent pursuit of the existential-space, in which they can settle their mind and body, particularly, in the ages of chaos. |
