Features: The Original Confucianism is a representative work by Mr. Xiong Shili that discusses Confucian thought. The book is divided into an upper volume, The Original Academic Lineage and The Original External King, and a lower volume, The Original Inner Sage. Based on Confucian classics such as the Book of Changes, the Spring and Autumn Annals, and the Rites of Zhou, it comprehensively examines and analyzes, discussing the purpose and essence of Confucius's political and ethical thought in the Confucian school. It criticizes later generations' misinterpretations and forced analogies of Confucius's orthodox Confucian thought. At the same time, it stands on the reality of modern political life to explore the new developments of Confucian thought and its impact and contributions to modern and contemporary China, thereby seeking theoretical support for China's modernization.
