This is a study of the most significant debate in Korean NeoConfucianism between the two most eminent NeoConfucian thinkers, summarizing their philosophies and providing refreshing insights into Confucian language and culture. This comparative study of Yi T'oegye (15011570) and Yi Yulgok (15361584), Korea's two most eminent NeoConfucian thinkers, is a seminal work on the FourSeven Debate, the most significant and controversial intellectual event in the Korean Confucian tradition. The FourSeven thesis, a magnificent example of East Asian Confucian discourse at its best, remains each thinker's masterpiece, a compressed but integrated systemization of metaphysics, ethics, and spirituality. It addresses fascinating philosophical, moral, and psychological questions about the fundamental problem of feelings and emotions, as well as their implications for moral and spiritual selftransformation. This book is indispensable for those interested in Korean thought or intellectual history. It will enable specialists in Confucian studies to understand unique paradigms of Korean NeoConfucianism. It will stimulate comparative philosophers or religionists and general humanists to consider Korean NeoConfucianism seriously as a major resource for understanding East Asian philosophy and religion.
