The principles are many: Wang Tingxiang and intellectual transition in mid-Ming China

Article Abstract:

Wang Tingxiang (1474-1544), was marginalized in the intellectual world of the sixteenth century and beyond although he was one of the most active intellectuals in mid-Ming China. He represented intellectual transition and a radical departure from the belief in the prevalent Song idea that there existed an ontological foundation for the unity of all things in the world, which did not suit the traditional intellectuals.
