Aristotle and Confucius are pivotal figures in world history; nevertheless, Western and Eastern cultures have in modern times largely abandoned the insights of these masters. Remastering Morals provides a book-length scholarly comparison of the ethics of Aristotle and Confucius. May Sim's comparisons offer fresh interpretations of the central teachings of both men. More than a catalog of similarities and differences, her study brings two great traditions into dialog so that each is able to learn from the other. This is essential reading for anyone interested in virtue-oriented ethics.

Introduction: Confucius and Aristotle: problems and prospects; 1. Aristotle in the reconstruction of Confucian ethics; 2. Categories and commensurability in Confucius and Aristotle: a response to MacIntyre; 3. Ritual and realism in early Chinese science; 4. Harmony and the mean in the Nicomachean Ethics and the Zhongyong; 5. The moral self in Confucius and Aristotle; 6. Virtue-oriented politics: Confucius and Aristotle; 7. Making friends with Confucius and Aristotle.
