Compiled in the seventeenth century, The Records of Ming Scholars is one of the finest examples we have of a Chinese history of thought. It presents a compelling account of the many different schools of Ming Confucianism and the lives and teachings of representative thinkers and scholars, all organized around the principal school of the time, that of Wang Yang-ming.

This selective translation of The Records of Ming Scholars will be an indispensable source for students of Chinese philosophy, religion, and intellectual and social history. In addition, since many of the scholars were active government officials, the book provides interesting insights into the political events of the time.
