Introduction
Confucius
孔子开创了私人讲学之风,倡导仁义礼智信。有弟子三千,其中贤人七十二。
他曾带领部分弟子周游列国十三年,晚年修订《诗》《书》《礼》《乐》《易》《春秋》六经。
孔子是当时社会上最博学者之一,去世后,其弟子及再传弟子把孔子及其弟子的言行语录和思想记录下来,整理编成《论语》。
《论语》被奉为儒家经典。
孔子在世时就被尊奉为“天纵之圣”“天之木铎”,更被后世统治者尊为孔圣人、至圣、至圣先师、大成至圣文宣王先师、万世师表。
其思想对中国和世界都有深远的影响,其人被列为“世界十大文化名人”之首。
随着孔子影响力的扩大,祭祀孔子的“祭孔大典”一度成为和中国祖先神祭祀同等级别的“大祀”。
孟子(约公元前372年—公元前289年)
孟氏,名轲,字号不详
邹国(今山东邹城)人
战国时期哲学家、思想家、政治家、教育家
Mencius
孟子(约公元前372年—公元前289年),姬姓孟氏,名轲,字号不详(子舆、子居等字表皆出自伪书,或后人杜撰),邹国(今山东邹城)人。战国时期哲学家、思想家、政治家、教育家,儒家学派的代表人物之一,地位仅次于孔子,与孔子并称“孔孟”。
孟子宣扬“仁政”,最早提出“民贵君轻”的思想,被韩愈列为先秦儒家继承孔子“道统”的人物,被元朝追封为“亚圣”,尊称为“亚圣”。
《孟子》一书,属语录体散文集,是孟子的言论汇编,由孟子的弟子共同编写完成。书中有《鱼我所欲也》、《得道多助,失道寡助》、《寡人之于国也》、《生于忧患,死于安乐》和《富贵不能淫》等篇编入中学语文教科书中。
墨子(约公元前476年—公元前390年)
墨子,名翟,春秋末期战国初期宋国人
中国古代思想家、教育家、科学家、军事家,墨家学派创始人和主要代表人物。
Mozi
墨子是中国历史上唯一一个农民出身的哲学家,创立了墨家学说。墨家在先秦时期影响很大,与儒家并称“显学”。墨子提出了“兼爱”“非攻”“尚贤”“尚同”“天志”“明鬼”“非命”“非乐”“节葬”“节用”等观点,以兼爱为核心,以节用、尚贤为支点。墨子在战国时期创立了以几何学、物理学、光学为突出成就的一整套科学理论。在当时的百家争鸣,有“非儒即墨”之称。
墨子死后,墨家分为相里氏之墨、相夫氏之墨、邓陵氏之墨三个学派。其弟子根据墨子生平事迹的史料,收集其语录,完成了《墨子》一书传世。
