Abstract:
Abstract I explore two important ways of thinking that the philosophical understanding of morality requires metaphysics: the moral metaphysics I ascribe to Xunzi and Kant’s metaphysics of morals. Both Xunzi and Kant held that a metaphysics of nature is inadequate for a metaphysical understanding of human moral agency. Xunzi invoked the human Dao to allow for the agency of the heart-mind, and Kant invoked the Categorical Imperative to allow for the agency of the moral self. Both Xunzi and Kant stretched metaphysics through rejecting the wrong sorts of rigour as preventing us from having an appropriate understanding of metaphysics and morality. I turn to their different placements of humanity that reflect deep differences in Xunzi’s and Kant’s underlying metaphysics. Xunzi placed humanity as a virtue or power that allows our psychology to become a moral psychology. Kant placed humanity as an ideal that allows our psychology to be a moral psychology.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study considers Xunzi's criticism of Zisi, Confucius' grandson, providing a detailed analysis of some of the most famous but also difficult passages in the Xunzi. By drawing on the newly excavated text, “Wuxing” (The five conducts), the study shows that not only did Xunzi have an intimate knowledge of Zisi's teachings, but in fact he had available to him a certain version of the “Wuxing.” This understanding makes it possible to evaluate Xunzi's role as a reporter of Zisi's teachings, and to the extent that Xunzi reported these teachings fairly and accurately, the study offers specific suggestions for reimagining a period that has been little understood in Early Chinese intellectual history, or the transition from Confucius to Mencius.

Abstract:
Mou Zongsan ironically once wrote that Zhu Xi could be considered Xunzi’s philosophical revenge on Mengzi . Mou implied that when you retreat from Zhu’s staunch rhetorical support of Mengzi philosophy, what you discover are all kinds of significant analogies between the philosophical lexicon as well as deeper structural affinities between Xunzi and Zhu Xi. We discover, ironically, that there is a great deal of merit in Mou’s offhanded suggestion of the comparison of two of the greatest Confucian masters.

Abstract:
Les rites incarnent la pensée principale de Xunzi (environ 313. ;238 av. J. -C. ). Selon ce philosophe, disciple de Confucius, les rites recouvrent une richesse de sens. La seule source permettant de puiser sa pensée est son oeuvre, le Xunzi. Visée à convaincre un sage roi, cette oeuvre représente pour Xunzi l'ensemble du programme pour l'établissement de la concorde. Précisément, l'application des rites permet de réaliser son idéal politique- l'unification du monde. Ainsi conçu, les rapports qu'entretiennent les significations des rites avec l'être humain, la société et le pays inscrivent le processus selon lequel le sage roi établit l'harmonie. Pour éclaircir ce processus, prouver l'efficacité des rites, il devient donc indispensable d'expliquer comment les significations des rites peuvent manifester leur utilité. Toutefois, s'il est facile de constater dans les ouvrages chinois un terme chinois possédant plusieurs significations, Ii " " (les rites) par exemple, il est cependant difficile d'y trouver les explications sur ces significations. Rien d'étonnant, l'idéologie ne fait pas partie de la culture chinoise, mais de celle de l'Occident. C'est donc à travers la recherche de ces deux cultures, chinoise et occidentale, que nous parvenons à comprendre la pensée de Xunzi. Cela signifie que l'étude de la culture occidentale reste utile à la compréhension de la culture chinoise; la communication de ces deux cultures apparaît possible même s'il s'agit d'une étude sinologique. Ceci est effectivement l'un des points importants, ignoré jusqu'à présent, que nous souhaitons montrer par cette thèse. Hormis la recherche sur la pensée de Xunzi, nous essayons aussi d'expliciter la notion générale des rites dans la culture chinoise. Car certains ont tendance à considérer que les rites chinois représentent comme de simples actes magiques, des coutumes et des mœurs. Ils se réduisent, par conséquent, aux actes formels assimilés à la religion ou au culte. Néanmoins, même si la forme du culte fait partie intégrante des rites, c'est plutôt leur fond qui marque la spécificité de la culture chinoise. Accompagnés de l'évolution de l'histoire, les rites existent, donnent à vivre et constituent leur vécu notamment par leur fond indéfectible. Nous montrons donc dans cette thèse l'histoire des rites, leur significations et définitions, et leur principes d'élaboration. Ce qui n'est pas traité jusqu'à présent
The rite represents the principal thinking of Xunzi (clyca 313-238 av. J. -c. ). For this philosopher, a disciple of Confucius, the rite contains several meanings. The on1y source that allows us to understand his thinking is his work, Xunzi. This text, which represent the total program to establish the concord, aims to convince a wise king. Precisely, application of rite is the way to realize Xunzi's political dream - unification of the world. In this way, the relation which the significations of rite concern with human-being, society and country inscribe the process for the wise king to establish harmony. To prove the capacity of rites in the harmonization of world, it is therefore necessary to explain how the significations of rite can show their usefulness. Nevertheless, if it is easy to note that a Chinese word contains several meanings, for instance, the rite, in Chinese works, it remains difficult to find the explanations for these meanings. This is not surprising as ideology does not belong to the Chinese culture, but to Western culture. Finally, the research of these two cultures allows us to understand the thinking of Xunzi. It means that the study of Western culture is useful for understanding Chinese culture, and, the communication of both cultures seems possible even in Sinology. This is an important point that most sinologists have been unaware of up to now, and which we hope to show in our thesis. Apart from the Xunzi's thought, we also try to explain the general concept of rites in Chinese culture. For some people view Chinese rites as magical acts, customs and manners. As a result, the formal act describes the Chinese rites, and the religion is its synonym. But, if we say that the rite represents Chinese culture and that the form of cult is one of part of the Chinese rite, Chinese culture is anyway distinguished by the content of rite, not its form. Accompanying the evolution of history, the rite exists, gives life to the Chinese and constitutes his past, especially by its solid content. Therefore, we study at the same time the history of Chinese rite, its meanings, definition and the principals for its elaboration. This has not been studied up to now

Abstract:
Le présent travail examine le rôle de yue/le, "musique/joie", dans le Xunzi. L'analyse ici présentée souligne l'importance de la musique comme "exercice spirituel" pour transformer la nature humaine. Après avoir traduit le chapitre Guyue du Lüshi chunqiu, la thèse s'articule en quatre partie principales, appelées "mouvements". Le premier mouvement rapproche la question de la transmission musicale dans la Chine ancienne, notamment le problème de la notation et la différence entre la musique selon les sources transmises et celles archéologiques. Le deuxième mouvement introduit le personnage historique de Xunzi et l'histoire traditionnelle de texte lui attribué. Ce mouvement-ci présente l'état de l'art pour ce qui concerne l'histoire de la discussion sur la datation du Yuelun, qui entraîne le Yueji, chapitre transmis comme partie du Liji. Le troisième mouvement rapproche la théorie musicale développée dans le Xunzi par rapport aux catégories de la pensée exprimées dans l'œuvre, notamment xing (nature humaine), qing (émotions, sentiments, nature instinctive), yu (désirs), xin (cœur, esprit), shan (bon) et e (mauvaise). Ensuite, on souligne l'importance de la musique par rapport au rituel comme méthode pivot pour retrouver et assurer l'harmonie sociale. Cette idée est analysée dans le chapitre Yuelun, qui est ici traduit et commenté. En conclusion, le quatrième mouvement souligne le rôle de la musique comme l' "art de gouverner". La dissertation de Xunzi sur la musique est donc liée à la pensée politique et à l'élaboration artistique
This work examines the role of yue/le, "music/joy", in the Xunzi. This analysis emphasizes the use of music practices as "spiritual exercise" to craft and transform human nature. After translating the Guyue - chapter of Lüshi chunqiu - the work is articulated in four parts called "movements". The first movement focuses on music in ancient times and specifically on the problem of musical notation, presenting a short comparison between ancient musical theory based on pre-Qin sources and archeology. The second movement introduces Xunzi as an historical figure and the history of the Xunzi text. This movement also explores the problem of time priority between the Yueji, chapter of Liji, and the Yuelun of Xunzi. The third movement approaches the musical theory in the "Xunzi" in relation to the categories developed in the text, particularly xing "inner nature", qing "emotional impulses", yu "desires", shan "good" and e "bad". Music is understood as the performance part of li "ritual" so that its importance is conceived as a specific ehtical power for governing a state. This idea is fully analyzed in the Yuelun chapter, which is here translated and commented. Finally, the forth movement concludes by unerlying the role of music as the "art of good government". '
