Ito Jinsai's Gomo Jigi and the Philosophical Definition of Early Modern Japan (Brill's Japanese Studies Library)
John Allen Tucker
Presenting an unabridged translation of Ito Jinsai's work, "Gome Jigi" (philosophical lexicography of the "Analects" and "Menicus", 1705), this volume opens with a brief textual study of the "Gomo Jigi" and an intellectual biography of Jinsai. While highlighting the Neo-Confucian text, the author suggests that the "Gomo Jigi" espouses a systematic philosophical worldview for "chonin", or townspeople, living in the ancient imperial capital, Kyoto, even during an age of ascendent samurai power.
