Chinese Greats
China: An Introduction
The human record in China can be traced back at least 1.7 million
years with the discovery in southwest China of fossils from a
closely related ancestor of modern man. Another early ancestor
called Peking Man lived about 500,000 years ago in north China.
By about 25,000 B.C., also near to Beijing, a fully advanced human,
sometimes referred to as Upper Cave Man, hunted and fished and
made shell and bone objects.
Although remains of early humans have been discovered in various
other places in China, the North—especially the fertile region
watered by the Huang He (the Yellow River)—was the central area
of ancient Chinese civilization. There, and also along the
southeastern coast, the switch from hunting-gathering methods of
food collection to an agricultural way of life first occurred in China.
In early Chinese societies, farmers employed primitive techniques
of cultivation, shifted their villages as the soils became exhausted,
and lived in underground houses in the region of modern central
Shanxi, southwestern Shanxi, and western He'nan. Their
handmade, painted objects occasionally bear a single sign that
may be an early form of Chinese writing. From around 2,500 to
1,000 B.C., agriculture became more advanced. Farmers lived in
more permanent settlements and began a wide-spreading cultural
expansion into the eastern plains, Manchuria, and Central and
South China. Farmers from this period worshiped their ancestors, a
Chinese custom that still persists.
The story of China begins with the events described above, and it
continues to the modern day. Between then and now, much has
happened. And China has produced not only one of the world's
great cultures, but also some of the world's greatest thinkers. Here
are a few:
Confucius (孔子)
Confucius, 551-479 B.C., was the Chinese teacher who founded
Confucianism (孔子学说), a philosophy and religion that was
named after him. Confucius was born of a poor but respected
family in the state of Lu (in what is now Qufu, in Shandong). As a
young man, he held several minor government posts; in later years,
he advanced to become minister of justice in his home state. But he
held these positions only for short periods because of conflicts with
his superiors. Throughout his life, he was best known as a teacher.
By the time of his death at the age of 72, he had taught a total of
3,000 students, who carried on his teaching.
Three keys of Confucianism are particularly important. The first is
kindness. Confucius considered kindness as something people
develop within themselves before it can affect their relations with
others. The best way to approach kindness is in terms of
enlightened self-interest, that is, putting the self in the position of
the other and then treating the other accordingly. Two sayings of
Confucius best express this idea:
would not like yourself
do for you.
second key concerns the superior man. The superior man is one
who practices kindness regardless of family background. A superior
man is a person who acts well, not necessarily a person who is
born into a wealthy or highly-respected family. Good behavior is the
third key. Confucius emphasized right behavior in one's relations;
man should act in accordance with good behavior. Thus one
behaves well toward the other. Such behavior includes social
norms that guide people in their social relations. For instance, a
person must show respect to people in higher positions of family
and society. A son must respect his father, a member of society
must respect government leaders, and so on. In addition, the
people in higher positions must care for the people in lower
positions. Failure to keep to these rules can result in something
terrible happening.
The sayings of Confucius were later placed into a book. Confucius
is also considered the author of other books, including a history of
the state of Lu from 771 to 579.
Mencius (孟子)
The Chinese philosopher Mencius, 372-289 B.C., was a leading
believer of Confucianism. Born in what is today Shandong, he lived
during the period of the Warring States (403-222 B.C.), when a
handful of competing states were fighting one another for the
control of China. Traveling from one state to another as a traveling
political advisor, Mencius spent 40 years trying to persuade the
warring kings to be righteous rulers rather than to rely on military
conquests. Disappointed in this effort, he devoted the remaining 20
years of his life to teaching.
The chief belief of Mencius is the original goodness of human
nature, which is given by heaven and possessed by everyone.
Mencius argued that every person has four feelings: sympathy,
shame and dislike, respect, and right and wrong. These four
feelings can be further developed into the four moral virtues:
kindness, righteousness, politeness, and wisdom. After his death,
his teachings were placed into the Book of Mencius, a work of
classic Confucian philosophy that has greatly influenced Chinese
philosophy.
Laozi (老子)
The philosophy of the Laozi (4th century B.C.) developed earlier
philosophies into a theory that valued nature and natural action.
What is more, Laozi saw opposites as part of the same system. For
example, good and bad, beautiful and ugly, high and low, and
shaped desires. When one could abandon knowledge of names,
distinctions, and socially induced tastes or desires, spontaneous, or
