| Summary: | In this paper I discuss whether Neo-Confucianism in the Chosŏn dynasty can be interpreted as a branch of the Cheng-Zhu school of Neo-Confucianism.

Yi I’s philosophy, for example, can be understood more consistently from the perspectives of Zhang Zai, Hu Hong, Luo Qinshun, or even Xunzi. |
