Abstract:
Mencius was one of the first famous thinkers introduced into Europe from China, and Mencius was also one of the first Chinese classics translated into Europe and America. Mencius thought and its main philosophical ideas have an important influence on the Western academic circle and the whole history of human civilization. The English versions were the author of "mencius", as well as Western academia about mencius’s main philosophy research, combing and analysis, and combined with the visiting time of the study in the United States, the system discusses the philosophical thought of mencius, such as the mandate of heaven, personality, ethics, etc., in the spread of western academia and accepting the situation, providing a bridge for academic exchange between Chinese and western culture, thus promoting the dissemination of Chinese civilization and the improvement of human self-worth.

Abstract:
Abstract Mencius’s account of the yi-li (righteousness-benefit) distinction is important in his moral philosophy, and is often compared with consequentialism or deontology in Western moral philosophy. After showing the problems with a naïve deontological reading and a sophisticated consequentialist reading of Mencius, I will argue that both a really sophisticated consequentialist reading and a non-Kantian deontological reading are more defensible. But they couldn’t address the inequality hidden in Mencius’s moral philosophy, making a Nietzschean reading possible. However, Mencius embraced compassion as a key virtue, which Nietzsche would reject. Mencius’s moral philosophy is doubly bifurcated and different from consequentialism, deontology, and also Nietzsche’s philosophy.

Abstract:
A royal lecture of Mencius in the period of King Yeongjo shows the unique characteristics of the Joseon Confucian classics. While the founder of the Chinese Ming dynasty deleted the phrase of Mencius which did not conform the absolute monarch, King Yeongjo had the same mind set as the founder of the Chinese Ming dynasty and did not’s do this. It led the attendees in a royal lecture to have a discussion freely with King Yeongjo. It reveals what Mencius’s intention is. King Yeongjo tries to evaluate Mencius as a servant without hiding his true feelings. this shows that he tries to figure out Mencius as the composition of the monarch and his subordinates, and to emphasize the virtue of loyalty by limiting Mencius to his subordinate status. On the other hand, the subordinates who attended a royal lecture try to realize the royal leaderships of King Yeongjo by interpreting Mencius' interests and moral nature as the composition of Zhu Xi's desires and moral principles. For this reason, Joseon scholars also insisted that King Yeongjo became a moral ruler through studying to keep consciousness awake. This can be said to be an intrinsic characteristic of the Joseon Confucian classics culture to interpret servants as equivalent to the monarch.

Abstract:
Confucius and Mencius differ in many ways in describing and demonstrating benevolence. For Confucius, benevolence is a basic concept, with filial piety at its core, and entails socially and culturally regulated action; benevolence symbolizes self-perfection while sagacity symbolizes perfection of all things in the universe. In contrast, for Mencius, who transforms the Confucian universe of unending life into a philosophical universe and changes Confucian benevolence of familial respect into a universal and absolute moral sentiment or instinct, the universe is a basic concept. With the universe as the metaphysical core, Mencius changes benevolence from the fruit of intention to an object of thought, so it is no longer a relation between life and its projects but, rather, a relation between the mind and its cultivation. Confucius talks about benevolence through the individual and familial morality while Mencius does so through the universe and human nature. Distinguishing Confucian and Mencian benevolence has theoretical importance for Confucianism and practical importance in our lives.

Abstract:
This paper examines the coupling in early texts of two masters, Yang Zhu 楊朱 and Mo Di 墨翟. The two thinkers are most famously paired in the Mencius as the prominent preachers of extreme doctrines, while they are also sometimes presented in other early texts such as the Zhuangzi and Han Feizi as useless debaters on trivial topics. These alternative portrayals of Yang-Mo are usually simplified as a second-rate imitation or repetition of the standard Mencian depiction. The paper argues that such a reading represents a serious misunderstanding of the pre-imperial textual transmission. Unfamiliarity with Yang-Mo as sophists may also be the result of the unconscious acceptance of Mencius’ description. The unconventional portrayal of Yang-Mo, very likely relatively unrelated to Mencius’ portrayal, had its own history in early China. Presented in various contexts, this alternative Yang-Mo image was once circulated in various forms for different intended audiences.

Abstract:
This dissertation reinterprets the notion commonly translated as "human nature" (renxing in the Mencius by appealing to philosophical assumptions common to Warring States thought. Taking advantage of recently unearthed archeological finds from the Mencian school, the argument is made that renxing in the Mencius is most adequately understood as a dynamic disposition shaped by cultural and historical conditions, not as an a-historical "nature" common to all humans at all times. The notion of "becoming human" in the Mencius that results from this re-reading brings the text as a whole into focus. The central themes of the Mencius - the role of family, personal growth, moral development, and human advancement - are each understood within the framework of this alternative reading.

Abstract:
Abstract Mencius 孟子 (c.391–308 BCE) and his text have exerted a profound influence on the Confucian tradition. The meaning of Mencius’s philosophy, however, has always been contested. The core message of the Mencius was debated not long after the text was composed, and it has been subject to various interpretations in China ever since. Debates over Mencius’s philosophy have occupied Western scholars as well. In the latter half of the twentieth century, Greek-medieval virtue ethics emerged in Western scholarship as a paradigm in which to understand its teachings. Certain aspects of this paradigm are currently being challenged—specifically, where it assumes human destiny to be transcendentally ordained (“Heaven’s plan”) and understands human nature (renxing 人性) to be teleological. Such challenges signal the emergence of new approaches to Mencius’s philosophy, as contemporary scholars recover its more dynamic and naturalistic elements.

Los objetivos principales de este sistema son mejorar la calidad de la tutoría de pasantías externas implementando mecanismos para reconocer el buen trabajo de los tutores y aumentar el compromiso de las empresas y entidades con la capacitación práctica de nuestros estudiantes. Está dirigido a los dos perfiles de tutores: académicos y empresas. Los tutores que acceden al SEATPE obtienen una "Mención de calidad" en el caso del tutor académico y una "Acreditación" en el caso del tutor de la empresa. Hasta ahora hemos realizado cinco llamadas y 500 tutores de pasantías han obtenido su acreditación o mención de calidad.
