The content of "The Analects of Confucius" covers politics, education, literature, philosophy, and principles of life and so on. As early as the period when Confucius set up a lecture forum in the late Spring and Autumn Period, its main content had been initially created; after Confucius's death, his disciples and re-disciples passed down his remarks from generation to generation, and gradually recorded these orally recited quotations, words and deeds. Therefore, It is called "Lun"; "The Analects" mainly records the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples, so it is called "Yu". Zhao Yi of the Qing Dynasty explained: "The speaker is the language of the saints, and the commentator is the discussion of the Confucian scholars." In fact, "Lun" also means compilation. The so-called "The Analects" refers to the record of the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples. Come down and compile it into a book.

Confucius

Confucius (September 28, 551 BC to April 11, 479 BC), whose surname was Kong, whose given name was Qiu, and whose courtesy name was Zhongni, was born in Zou Yi (now Qufu City, Shandong Province) of the state of Lu. His ancestral home is Liyi of the Song Dynasty (now Xiayi County, Henan Province). He was a great thinker, politician, and educator in ancient China, the founder of the Confucian school, and the "Sage of Dacheng". [

Confucius created the style of private lectures and advocated benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust. He had three thousand disciples, including seventy-two sages. He once led some of his disciples to travel around the country for fourteen years, and revised the Six Classics (Poetry, Book, Rites, Music, Book of Changes, and Spring and Autumn Annals) in his later years. After his death, his disciples and subsequent disciples recorded the words, deeds, quotes and thoughts of Confucius and his disciples, and compiled them into The Analects of Confucius. The book is regarded as a Confucian classic.

Confucius was one of the most erudite scholars in society at that time. He was revered as the "Sage of Heaven" and "The Wooden Duo of Heaven" when he was still alive. He was also honored by the rulers of later generations as the Saint of Confucius, the Holy Saint, the Holy Teacher, and The supreme sage of Dacheng, King Wenxuan, was the forefather and the teacher for all generations.His thoughts have a profound impact on China and the world, and he is listed as the first among the "Top Ten Cultural Celebrities in the World". As the influence of Confucius expanded, the "Confucius Ceremony" to worship Confucius once became a ceremony on the same level as the Chinese ancestor gods.

"Mencius"

"Mencius" is Confucian classic work , Mencius and his disciples Ten Thousand Chapters , Gongsun Chou and so on in the middle period of Warring States . It was first seen in Zhao Qi's "Mencius' Inscription": "This book was written by Mencius, so it is always called "Mencius"." "Mencius" was listed as one of the "Four Books" by Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty (the other three are "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Analects of Confucius").

Mencius

Mencius (approximately 372 BC - 289 BC), whose name is Ke and whose character is unknown (Ziyu, Ziju and other characters are all from forged books or made up by later generations), was born in Zou, Lu State (now Shandong) in the middle of the Warring States Period. Zoucheng native), not far from Qufu, the hometown of Confucius.

Mencius is a famous thinker, politician, educator, successor of Confucius' theory, and an important representative of Confucianism. According to legend, Mencius was a descendant of the Meng Sun family, a nobleman of the Lu State. He lost his father when he was young and his family was poor. He was once a disciple of Zi Si (Kong Ji, the grandson of Confucius). After completing his studies, he lobbied the princes as a scholar in an attempt to promote his political ideas and went to Liang (Wei), Qi, Song, Teng and Lu. At that time, several big countries were committed to enriching the country and strengthening the military, striving to achieve unification through force. He inherited Confucius's "benevolence" thought and developed it into the "benevolent government" thought, and was called the "Ya Sage".

Mencius was born about a hundred years after the death of Confucius (479 BC). Regarding his life experience, very little has been handed down. "Han Shi Wai Zhuan" contains the story of his mother's "broken weaving", and "Biography of Lienu" contains stories of his mother's "three moves" and "departure to Qi". It can be seen that He benefited a lot from his mother's education. According to "The Biography of Lienu" and Zhao Qi's "Mencius' Inscription", Mencius was taught by Confucius' grandson Zisi. But judging from the age, it seems unreliable. "Historical Records: Biography of Mencius and Xunqing" says that he was "a disciple of Zisi", which is possible. Whether he was a disciple of Zisi or a disciple of Zisi, Mencius's teachings were all influenced by Confucius' thoughts. Therefore, Xunzi listed Zisi and Mencius as the same school. This is what later generations called the Simeng school in Confucianism.

Like Confucius, Mencius also led students to travel to Wei, Qi, Song, Lu, Teng, Xue and other countries, and once served as a guest of King Xuan of Qi. Since his political ideas were not valued as much as those of Confucius, he returned to his hometown to gather disciples to give lectures, and wrote a book with his student Wan Zhang and others. "The Seven Chapters of Mencius" ("Historical Records: Biography of Mencius and Xunqing") The seven chapters of "Mencius" we have seen are divided into upper and lower chapters, with about 35,000 words, and a total of 260 chapters.

"Daodejing"

"Taodejing", the philosophical work of Laozi (Li Er) in the Spring and Autumn Period, also known as "Taodezhen", "Laozi", "Five Thousand Words", "Laozi's Five Thousand Essays", is an ancient Chinese A work written by the pre-Qin scholars before they split up, and is an important source of Taoist philosophical thought. The Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts. The original text is the first part "De Jing" and the second part "Tao Jing". They are not divided into chapters. Later, they were changed to "Tao Jing". Chapter 37 comes first, and after chapter 38, it is "De Jing" and divided into chapters. For 81 chapters.

The text of the "Tao Te Ching" takes "morality" in the philosophical sense as its outline, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using military force, and maintaining health. Most of it takes politics as its purpose. It is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" study, and its literary meaning is profound. , inclusive and comprehensive, known as the king of scriptures.

"Tao Te Ching" is one of the greatest masterpieces in Chinese history, which has had a profound impact on traditional philosophy, science, politics, religion, etc. . According to statistics from UNESCO, the Tao Te Ching is the cultural classic that has been translated into most foreign languages ​​and published the most besides the Bible.

Laozi

Laozi, whose surname is Li Ming'er, whose given name is Dan, whose first name is Boyang, or whose posthumous title is Boyang, was born in the late Spring and Autumn Period. His birth and death dates are unknown, and his place of birth is also controversial. "Historical Records" and other records record that Laozi was born in the state of Chu Or Chen Guo.An ancient Chinese thinker, philosopher, writer and historian, the founder and main representative of the Taoist school, and is also known as "Lao Zhuang" together with Zhuangzi. Later, he was revered as the ancestor by Taoism and was called "Tai Shang Lao Jun". In the Tang Dynasty, he was posthumously regarded as the ancestor of the surname Li. He was once listed as a world cultural celebrity and one of the world's 100 historical celebrities.

Laozi once served as the guardian of the Zhou Dynasty and was famous for his erudition. Confucius once visited the Zhou Dynasty to ask him for courtesy. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in chaos. I wanted to abandon my official position and go into seclusion, so I rode a green ox to the west. When he arrived at Lingbao Hangu Pass, he was ordered by Yin Xizhi to write the Tao Te Ching.

Laozi's thought has a profound influence on the development of Chinese philosophy, and the core of his thought is simple dialectics. In politics, it advocates governing by doing nothing and teaching without speaking. In terms of power, we should pay attention to the principle that things must be reversed when they reach their extreme. In terms of self-cultivation, it pays attention to the practice of being humble and not competing with others. It is the ancestor of Taoist dual cultivation of life and life.

Laozi's handed down work "Tao Te Ching" (also known as "Laozi") is one of the most widely published works in the world.

"The Book of Songs"

"The Book of Songs" is the beginning of ancient Chinese poetry and the earliest collection of poetry. It collects poems from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period (11th century BC to 6th century BC), with a total of 311 poems, including 6 poems. It is a Sheng poem, that is, it only has a title but no content. It is called the six Sheng poems ("Nanmei", "Baihua", "Huashui", "Yougeng", "Chongqiu" and "Youyi"), which reflect the poems from the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty. The social landscape during the late period of about 500 years.

The author of "The Book of Songs" is unknown, and most of it cannot be verified. It is said that it was collected by Yin Jifu and compiled by Confucius. The Book of Songs was called "The Book of Songs" in the pre-Qin period, or the whole number was called "The Three Hundred Poems". It was revered as a Confucian classic during the Western Han Dynasty and was first called the Book of Songs, which is still in use today. The Book of Songs is divided into three parts: "Wind", "Ya" and "Song". "Wind" is a ballad from various places in the Zhou Dynasty; "Ya" is a formal song of the Zhou people, and is divided into "Xiaoya" and "Daya"; "Song", "Song of Lu" and "Song of Shang".

Confucius once summarized the purpose of the Book of Songs as "innocence" and taught his disciples to read the Book of Songs as the standard for speech and action. Among the pre-Qin scholars, many quoted the Book of Songs. For example, Mencius, Xunzi, Mozi, Zhuangzi, Han Feizi, etc. often quoted sentences from the Book of Songs to enhance their persuasiveness when reasoning and demonstrating. By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Book of Songs was regarded as a classic by Confucianists and became one of the Six Classics and the Five Classics.

The Book of Songs is rich in content, reflecting labor and love, war and corvee, oppression and resistance, customs and marriage, ancestor worship and banquets, and even celestial phenomena, landforms, animals, plants and other aspects. It is a mirror of social life in the Zhou Dynasty.

"Shangshu"

One of the five Confucian classics, the earliest book is called "Shu". It is a compilation of works that trace ancient deeds. It is divided into "Yu Shu", "Xia Shu", "Shang Shu" and "Zhou Shu". Because it is one of the Five Classics of Confucianism, it is also called the Book of Books. The commonly used version of Shangshu, the Commentary on the Thirteen Classics, is a joint edition of Jinwen Shangshu and the pseudo-Guwen Shangshu. Extant versions are of mixed authenticity.

Twenty-eight chapters of "Shang Shu" dictated by Fu Sheng, a scholar of the Western Han Dynasty, are the modern version of "Shang Shu". Another "Shang Shu" discovered by Liu Yu, King Gong of Lu in the Western Han Dynasty when he demolished a section of the wall of Confucius' former residence, is the ancient version of "Shang Shu". During the Yongjia period of the Western Jin Dynasty, war broke out, and all the modern and ancient "Shang Shu" were lost. At the beginning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Yuzhang Neishi Meizu presented a "Shangshu" to the court, including 33 chapters of "Jinwen Shangshu" and 25 chapters of pseudo "Guwen Shangshu".

"Shangshu" is listed as one of the important core Confucian classics and the basic book for Confucian study in the past dynasties. "Shang" means "up", and "Shangshu" is an ancient book. It is the earliest collection of historical documents in my country. The traditional Shangshu (also known as Jinwen Shangshu) was handed down from Fu Sheng. The legend is that it is a legacy of the ancient culture "Three Tombs and Five Codes".

"Book of Rites"

"Book of Rites", also known as "Book of Rites of Xiao Dai" and "Ji of Xiao Dai", was written in the Han Dynasty and compiled by Dai Shengsuo, a ritual scholar of the Western Han Dynasty.

"The Book of Rites" is an important anthology of laws and regulations in ancient China, with a total of 20 volumes and 49 chapters . The content of the book mainly describes the etiquette system of the Pre-Qin Dynasty and embodies the philosophical thoughts of the Pre-Qin Confucians (such as the view of heaven and the world). , outlook on life), educational thoughts (such as personal self-cultivation, education system, teaching methods, school management), political thoughts (such as transforming politics through education, Datong society, etiquette and criminal law), aesthetic thoughts (such as the theory of things moving and the heart, etiquette and music Theory of Zhonghe), is an important material for the study of pre-Qin society , and is a compilation of materials on Confucianism .

"Book of Rites" has rigorous organization, vivid reflections, tactful words, echoes from front to back, and neat and changeable language. It is one of the "Three Rites", one of the "Five Classics", and one of the "Thirteen Classics". Since Zheng Xuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty made the "annotation", the status of "Book of Rites" has been rising day by day. By the Tang Dynasty, it was regarded as a "Classic". After the Song Dynasty, it ranked first among the "Three Rites".

The ancient cultural history knowledge and ideological doctrines recorded in the "Book of Rites" have an important impact on the inheritance of Confucian culture, contemporary cultural education and moral cultivation, and the construction of a harmonious socialist society.

"The Book of Changes"

"The Book of Changes" is the "Book of Changes", one of the "Three Book of Changes" (there is another view: the Book of Changes is the Three Book of Changes, not the Zhou Book of Changes). It is one of the traditional classics. According to legend, it was written by Jichang, King Wen of Zhou Dynasty. The content includes two parts: "Jing" and "Biography" . The "Jing" mainly consists of sixty-four hexagrams and three hundred and eighty-four lines. Each hexagram and line has its own explanation (hexagram words and line words), which are used for divination. "Zhuan" contains seven kinds of texts explaining hexagrams and line words, a total of ten chapters, collectively called "Ten Wings", and it is said to be written by Confucius.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, official schools began to gradually evolve into private schools. The study of Yi followed each other and developed gradually. With the rise of hundreds of schools of thought, the study of Yi diverged accordingly. Since Confucius praised the Yi, "The Book of Changes" has been regarded as the Confucian holy book and the first of the six classics by Confucianism. Outside of Confucianism, there are two branches of Yi that developed in parallel with the Confucian school of change: one is Zhishu Yi where the old forces still exist; the other is Lao Tzu's Taoist Yi, and Yi school began to be divided into three branches.

The "General Catalog of Sikuquanshu" divides the origins and changes of the history of Yixue into "two schools and six sects". The two sects are the Xiangmao sect and the Yili sect; there are six sects, one is the divination sect, the second is the Yuxiang sect, the third is the fortune sect, the fourth is the Lao Zhuang sect, the fifth is the Confucianism sect, and the sixth is the Shishi sect.

"The Book of Changes" is the theoretical root of natural philosophy and humanistic practice in traditional Chinese thought and culture. It is the crystallization of the thoughts and wisdom of the ancient Han nation and is known as the "source of the great road." The content is extremely rich and has had a profound impact on China's politics, economy, culture and other fields for thousands of years.

It mainly records the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples in the form of quotations and dialogues, and embodies Confucius's political, Value ideas such as aesthetics, moral ethics and utilitarianism.

The content of "The Analects of Confucius" covers politics, education, literature, philosophy, and principles of life and so on. As early as the period when Confucius set up a lecture forum in the late Spring and Autumn Period, its main content had been initially created; after Confucius's death, his disciples and re-disciples passed down his remarks from generation to generation, and gradually recorded these orally recited quotations, words and deeds. Therefore, It is called "Lun"; "The Analects" mainly records the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples, so it is called "Yu". Zhao Yi of the Qing Dynasty explained: "The speaker is the language of the saints, and the commentator is the discussion of the Confucian scholars." In fact, "Lun" also means compilation. The so-called "The Analects" refers to the record of the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples. Come down and compile it into a book.

Confucius

Confucius (September 28, 551 BC to April 11, 479 BC), whose surname was Kong, whose given name was Qiu, and whose courtesy name was Zhongni, was born in Zou Yi (now Qufu City, Shandong Province) of the state of Lu. His ancestral home is Liyi of the Song Dynasty (now Xiayi County, Henan Province). He was a great thinker, politician, and educator in ancient China, the founder of the Confucian school, and the "Sage of Dacheng". [

Confucius created the style of private lectures and advocated benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust. He had three thousand disciples, including seventy-two sages. He once led some of his disciples to travel around the country for fourteen years, and revised the Six Classics (Poetry, Book, Rites, Music, Book of Changes, and Spring and Autumn Annals) in his later years. After his death, his disciples and subsequent disciples recorded the words, deeds, quotes and thoughts of Confucius and his disciples, and compiled them into The Analects of Confucius. The book is regarded as a Confucian classic.

Confucius was one of the most erudite scholars in society at that time. He was revered as the "Sage of Heaven" and "The Wooden Duo of Heaven" when he was still alive. He was also honored by the rulers of later generations as the Saint of Confucius, the Holy Saint, the Holy Teacher, and The supreme sage of Dacheng, King Wenxuan, was the forefather and the teacher for all generations.His thoughts have a profound impact on China and the world, and he is listed as the first among the "Top Ten Cultural Celebrities in the World". As the influence of Confucius expanded, the "Confucius Ceremony" to worship Confucius once became a ceremony on the same level as the Chinese ancestor gods.

"Mencius"

"Mencius" is Confucian classic work , Mencius and his disciples Ten Thousand Chapters , Gongsun Chou and so on in the middle period of Warring States . It was first seen in Zhao Qi's "Mencius' Inscription": "This book was written by Mencius, so it is always called "Mencius"." "Mencius" was listed as one of the "Four Books" by Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty (the other three are "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Analects of Confucius").

Mencius

Mencius (approximately 372 BC - 289 BC), whose name is Ke and whose character is unknown (Ziyu, Ziju and other characters are all from forged books or made up by later generations), was born in Zou, Lu State (now Shandong) in the middle of the Warring States Period. Zoucheng native), not far from Qufu, the hometown of Confucius.

Mencius is a famous thinker, politician, educator, successor of Confucius' theory, and an important representative of Confucianism. According to legend, Mencius was a descendant of the Meng Sun family, a nobleman of the Lu State. He lost his father when he was young and his family was poor. He was once a disciple of Zi Si (Kong Ji, the grandson of Confucius). After completing his studies, he lobbied the princes as a scholar in an attempt to promote his political ideas and went to Liang (Wei), Qi, Song, Teng and Lu. At that time, several big countries were committed to enriching the country and strengthening the military, striving to achieve unification through force. He inherited Confucius's "benevolence" thought and developed it into the "benevolent government" thought, and was called the "Ya Sage".

Mencius was born about a hundred years after the death of Confucius (479 BC). Regarding his life experience, very little has been handed down. "Han Shi Wai Zhuan" contains the story of his mother's "broken weaving", and "Biography of Lienu" contains stories of his mother's "three moves" and "departure to Qi". It can be seen that He benefited a lot from his mother's education. According to "The Biography of Lienu" and Zhao Qi's "Mencius' Inscription", Mencius was taught by Confucius' grandson Zisi. But judging from the age, it seems unreliable. "Historical Records: Biography of Mencius and Xunqing" says that he was "a disciple of Zisi", which is possible. Whether he was a disciple of Zisi or a disciple of Zisi, Mencius's teachings were all influenced by Confucius' thoughts. Therefore, Xunzi listed Zisi and Mencius as the same school. This is what later generations called the Simeng school in Confucianism.

Like Confucius, Mencius also led students to travel to Wei, Qi, Song, Lu, Teng, Xue and other countries, and once served as a guest of King Xuan of Qi. Since his political ideas were not valued as much as those of Confucius, he returned to his hometown to gather disciples to give lectures, and wrote a book with his student Wan Zhang and others. "The Seven Chapters of Mencius" ("Historical Records: Biography of Mencius and Xunqing") The seven chapters of "Mencius" we have seen are divided into upper and lower chapters, with about 35,000 words, and a total of 260 chapters.

"Daodejing"

"Taodejing", the philosophical work of Laozi (Li Er) in the Spring and Autumn Period, also known as "Taodezhen", "Laozi", "Five Thousand Words", "Laozi's Five Thousand Essays", is an ancient Chinese A work written by the pre-Qin scholars before they split up, and is an important source of Taoist philosophical thought. The Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts. The original text is the first part "De Jing" and the second part "Tao Jing". They are not divided into chapters. Later, they were changed to "Tao Jing". Chapter 37 comes first, and after chapter 38, it is "De Jing" and divided into chapters. For 81 chapters.

The text of the "Tao Te Ching" takes "morality" in the philosophical sense as its outline, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using military force, and maintaining health. Most of it takes politics as its purpose. It is the so-called "inner sage and outer king" study, and its literary meaning is profound. , inclusive and comprehensive, known as the king of scriptures.

"Tao Te Ching" is one of the greatest masterpieces in Chinese history, which has had a profound impact on traditional philosophy, science, politics, religion, etc. . According to statistics from UNESCO, the Tao Te Ching is the cultural classic that has been translated into most foreign languages ​​and published the most besides the Bible.

Laozi

Laozi, whose surname is Li Ming'er, whose given name is Dan, whose first name is Boyang, or whose posthumous title is Boyang, was born in the late Spring and Autumn Period. His birth and death dates are unknown, and his place of birth is also controversial. "Historical Records" and other records record that Laozi was born in the state of Chu Or Chen Guo.An ancient Chinese thinker, philosopher, writer and historian, the founder and main representative of the Taoist school, and is also known as "Lao Zhuang" together with Zhuangzi. Later, he was revered as the ancestor by Taoism and was called "Tai Shang Lao Jun". In the Tang Dynasty, he was posthumously regarded as the ancestor of the surname Li. He was once listed as a world cultural celebrity and one of the world's 100 historical celebrities.

Laozi once served as the guardian of the Zhou Dynasty and was famous for his erudition. Confucius once visited the Zhou Dynasty to ask him for courtesy. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the world was in chaos. I wanted to abandon my official position and go into seclusion, so I rode a green ox to the west. When he arrived at Lingbao Hangu Pass, he was ordered by Yin Xizhi to write the Tao Te Ching.

Laozi's thought has a profound influence on the development of Chinese philosophy, and the core of his thought is simple dialectics. In politics, it advocates governing by doing nothing and teaching without speaking. In terms of power, we should pay attention to the principle that things must be reversed when they reach their extreme. In terms of self-cultivation, it pays attention to the practice of being humble and not competing with others. It is the ancestor of Taoist dual cultivation of life and life.

Laozi's handed down work "Tao Te Ching" (also known as "Laozi") is one of the most widely published works in the world.

"The Book of Songs"

"The Book of Songs" is the beginning of ancient Chinese poetry and the earliest collection of poetry.

Twenty-eight chapters of "Shang Shu" dictated by Fu Sheng, a scholar of the Western Han Dynasty, are the modern version of "Shang Shu". Another "Shang Shu" discovered by Liu Yu, King Gong of Lu in the Western Han Dynasty when he demolished a section of the wall of Confucius' former residence, is the ancient version of "Shang Shu".
