A Confucius Institute in Canada Confucius Institutes are non-profit institutions operated under the Government of the People's Republic of China whose stated aim is to promote Chinese language and culture, support local Chinese teaching internationally, and facilitate cultural exchanges.
Confucius Institutes are sometimes compared to language and culture promotion organizations such as Britain's British Council, France's Alliance Française and Germany's Goethe-Institut. Unlike these organizations, however, Confucius Institutes are run directly by their government and they operate within established universities, colleges, and secondary schools around the world, providing funding, teachers and educational materials.

But the two paradoxically exist in Song Confucian scholars. Often, it was precisely because they were aware of historical changes--that things do not remain the same, that they wanted to hold on tenaciously to Confucian principles, to find something permanent within change. This also shaped the style they treated Confucian principles--on the whole much more transcendental than previous Confucian scholars, although Zhu Xi tried to avoid a high level of transcendentalism in his treatment of Confucian learning. We will be able to get a glimpse of this more transcendental treatment of Confucian learning in chaps.20, 21, and 24 of the de Bary book, which we will read in the next three weeks.
