philosopher, whose teachings and
philosophy have deeply influenced
Chinese,
Korean,
Japanese, and
Vietnamese thought and life.His philosophy emphasized personal and
governmental morality, correctness of
social relationships,
justice and
sincerity. These values gained prominence in
China over other doctrines, such as
Legalism (法家) or
Taoism (道家) during the
Han Dynasty. Confucius' thoughts have been developed into a system of philosophy known as
Confucianism (儒家). It was introduced to Europe by the
Jesuit Matteo Ricci, who was the first to
