Comparative Studies Between Emerson and Chinese Philosophy: Nature, Spirituality and Place

By Shan Gao

This book explores how Emerson's and Zhuang Zi's exploration of spirituality in nature shapes different senses of place. It explores spirituality as a pursuit of life's meaning and self-transcendence, particularly relevant amidst rapid urbanization, which separates more people from their land and relocates them into cities. This concept has garnered attention in fields such as religion, philosophy, geography, and psychology.
