Confucianism in the Pre-Qin Period

先秦的儒家思想

The Confucian School was founded by Confucius in the Pre-Qin Period, which was later developed by Mencius and Xun Zi, and became one of the most influential schools of thought of the time.

儒家學派在先秦時期由孔子創立，後經由孟子和荀子發展，成爲了那個時代最具影響力的學派之一。

The greatest advantage of Confucian studies lies in its reliance on traditional Chinese culture represented by The Five Classics, thus manifesting the characteristics of “classical culture”.

儒家思想的最優之處在於其對於中國傳統文化的依賴，“五經”就是一個代表，所以它表現了“古典文化”的特徵。

The Five Classics were the yeast of the thoughts of the Confucian School, which centered upon their explanation and interpretation, changing and renewing its theories with the times.

“五經”是儒家學派的發酵產物，它以解釋與翻譯爲主，隨着時代的變化改變與更新理論。

Another characteristic feature of Confucianism is its keen understanding of the nature of the patriarchal society in ancient China, and the defense of this patriarchal culture then. That is why Confucianism has become a theoretical system which best reflects.

儒家思想的另一特點是其對於古代中國父權社會的深刻理解以及之後對於父權文化的反對。
