여성주의 철학 상담을 위한 양명학적 사유의 전망

Abstract

This thesis critically recognizes that the recently actively researched philosophical counseling is new from the fact that it focuses on philosophy as practice and the counselee, but also has the limit as it focuses on the Western philosophy and male centralism. Accordingly, it attempts to develop the feminist philosophical counseling theory in the context of East Asia and discuss by focusing on the viewpoint of subjectivity that appears in Confucian theory, especially human nature theory of Yang-ming Studies. Especially, it tries to help the search for methodology of feminist philosophical counseling by revealing that female’s subjectivity, communication as an equal relationship, sympathy with the subject and the other, etc. are closely discussed in the Yangming thought. This thesis focuses on Yang-ming Studies to deal with such issues. Also this kind of Yang-ming thought will be explained by dividing into two different perspectives of philosophy from the self and philsophy of sympathy. Yang-ming’s thought style that starts from the self prospect from the point that it accompaniment the “reflection” about the situation that the current self is in, and the fact that it does not exclude the subject’s specific life, experience, and context. In addition, the thesis attempts to consider the question of whether Yang-ming studies can contribute to feminist philosophical counseling by observing the context of connecting female’s self search, security of female subjectivity with the other.
