Now let’s come straight to the subject :brief Introduction of Confucius :Confucius (551 B.C—479 B.C.) ,the founder of Confucianism [kən'fjʊʃə,nɪzm] ,is one of the most famous cultural celebrities. He sometimes went by the names KongZi though he was born - KongQiu - styled ZhongNi.He was born in the village of Zouyi in the State of Lu. After a brief introducing, let’s get into the principal part:Generalization[,dʒɛnrəlai’zeʃən] of Confucius' philosophy .they are contain 5 key words.firstly, 1.Benevolence.it is the core of Confucius thought. It can be concentrated to :"don't do unto others ,what you don't want others do unto you . " And it's fundamental purpose is maintain the old order emphasize the moral cultivation['kʌltə'veʃən] of people . Next,2.epistemology [ɪ,pɪstə'mɑlədʒi](zhi),it’s include 3 key points :1.Understand the ethical['ɛθɪkl]relationship （伦理关系） 2.inherit old classics.Far from trying to build a systematic or formalist theory, he wanted his disciples [dɪ'saɪpls]to master and internalize[ɪn'tɝnəlaɪz] the old classics, 3.Mix“understand ”and “act ”together . He was approval [əˈpruvl] of taking actions ,going through the life up and down .then,3.propriety [prə'praɪəti] (Li)Confucius stressed the development of lǐ through the actions of sage[sedʒ] leaders in human history.The Confucian [kən'fjʊʃən]theory of Lǐ (禮) is based on three important parts of life: (a) ceremonies['sɛrə'monɪz] associated with sacrifice['sækrɪfaɪs] to ancestors['ænsestəz] . (b) social and political[pə'lɪtɪkl],institutions[ɪnstɪ'tuʃən]. (c) the daily behavior. For example,people should respect the aged and take good care of children .after that is Destiny ['dɛstəni](Ming) you know,Confucianism discusses elements of the afterlife and views concerning Heaven, but it is relatively['rɛlətɪvli] unconcerned with some spiritual['spɪrɪtʃʊəl] matters often considered essential to religious thought, such as the nature of souls. However, Confucius is said to have believed in astrology[ə'strɑlədʒi] saying: "Heaven sends down its good or evil symbols and wise men act accordingly".last but not least,The Doctrine['dɑktrɪn] of theMean(zhongyong) Moderation is not going to go extremes and it should be just right.Harmony does not mean mediocrity[miːdɪ'ɒkrɪtɪ] .On the contrary['kɑntrɛri] ,it refers to the correct analysis and judgement after full consideration.In his opinion the golden mean is probably highest moral realm. The last part : Summarize:Confucius' Benevolence、epistemology [ɪ,pɪstə'mɑlədʒi]、propriety Destiny and The Doctrine of the Mean are the key words of his philosophy system.but they are only contain a small part. And These ideas are still of great significance in practice today. That is all ,thank for your listening! 。
