The historical process ofWestern version of Confucianism originally was traced back to European missionaries, whoplayed crucial role in collecting Confucian primary sources and praising the ethical and socialvalues of Confucianism. Inspired by the primary sources of Confucianism, Enlightenmentscholars represented the image of Confucianism as romanticized ideal of natural theory andpractical morality for European culture. However, western＇ s imagination of Confucianism inthe nineteenth century shifted from a cultural and political ideal to childish and static traditioninferior to European culture, as emphasized in Hegel and Herder＇ s works. All these Westernimages of Confucianism illustrate the historical expressions of European self - presentation,self- confirmation and self- criticism.展开更多

The core of Confucianism thought is the thought of benevolence,a great recreation of Chinese ancient great ideologists and educators,which is based on ritual and music culture of Confucianism,reflecting the philosophy of zeitgeist in various stages of social changes. The paper begins with the statement of connotation of the thought of benevolence in Confucianism. Then,six aspects of the thought,the benevolent loving others,principle of benevolence and loyalty,loving all people and animals,etc. are interpreted,including the practical significance of the thought,which provides effective reference for the application of the thought of benevolence in the present construction of harmonious society.展开更多
