This book focuses on Confucians who lived mainly in the late early modern Japan, such as Nakai Chikuzan, Nakai Riken, Waki Ranshitsu, Shibano Ritsuzan, and Asaka Gonsai, and examines their interpretation of the classics and their philosophical practice. For these Confucians who studied Neo-Confucianism, interpretation of the classics was not merely an academic task of deciphering the meanings of classics such as the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs. Rather, it was a matter of understanding the words of sages and ancient wise men in the context of their own lives and directly connecting them to practice in real life, so that interpretation of the classics and philosophical practice are inextricably linked. In other words, it is scholarship as a life that considers things including changes in one’s temperament and the pursuit of human harmoniousness. It is nothing other than a way of living Confucianism.

Japanese Confucians were determined to pursue scholarship, and they tried to improve themselves and govern others by using the teachings of sages as a guide for life. This is the consciousness of the Confucian way. They ran academic schools and educated their students, thereby passing on awareness of this path to the next generation.
