Zhong and the language of clustered meanings
a synthetic exploration of the way of Zhong in early Confucian philosophy
pp. 177-189
Abstract
One of the most prominent features of early Confucianism is its attention to "the Way of zhong" 中道 (zhongdao). By itself, the character zhong 中is often translated as "centrality," but since it has a wider range of meanings that I will explore in this paper, I leave it in its transliterated form
