His proper name is Mo Di \]. Mozi is arguably the first true philosopher of China known to us. He developed systematic analyses and criticisms of his opponents’ posi- tions and presented an array of arguments in support of his own philo- sophical views. His interest and faith in argumentation led him and his later followers to study the forms and methods of philosophical debate, and their work contributed significantly to the development of early Chinese philosophy.

  • The Story of the Duke of Zhou
    Indiana University, History G380 – class text readings – Spring 2010 – R. Eno 1.6 THE STORY OF THE DUKE OF ZHOU Next to Confucius himself, the greatest hero of ancient China, as viewed through the perspective of the later Confucian tradition, was a man known as the Duke of Zhou, one of the founders of the Zhou Dynasty. The Duke of Zhou is celebrated for two reasons. The first concerns his formidable political achievements. The texts tell us that two years after the conquest of the Shang, the Zhou conqueror King Wu died, leaving only one very young son to succeed him. While it was the Shang custom to pass the throne from older to younger brother within one generation, the tradition of the Zhou people had been that their throne should pass only from father to son. Upon the death of King Wu, his younger brother, the Duke of Zhou, seized power, claiming that it was his intention to preside only as an emergency measure until his nephew came of age and could properly receive the Mandate of Heaven. A number of the other brothers believed instead that the Duke was seizing the throne in the manner of former Shang kings and they raised a rebellion. The Duke not only put down the rebellion, but followed this forceful confirmation of his claim to ultimate power by actually doing what he had promised all along – when his nephew, the future King Cheng, came of age, the Duke ceded to him full authority to rule and retired to an advisory role. This sacrifice of power on the Duke’s part immeasurably enhanced the stature of the Zhou throne and the religious power of the concept of Heaven’s mandate.

  • Two Capitals. Being a Short Description of Peiping and Hsinking
    — THE NEW ORIENT TWO CAPITALS Being a Short Description of a Recent Msit to Peiping and Hsinking. BY RUTH F. EVERETT AFTER an interval of four years we were revisiting Peiping. A\^ith peace prevailing in Central China and railroad communi- cation reestablished we were traveling this time from Shanghai on that romantic sounding Shanghai Express made famous by Marlene Diedrich and the movies. There really is a Shanghai Express, the remnants of the famous "Blue Train" of Wagon-Lits cars which used to run before the revolution of 1925. But the train is scarcely as the picture would have us believe. True, we did start out with a great guard of soldiers at the station. Some minister of state, per- haps the Minister of War, was traveling in the coach ahead as far as the capital, Nanking, which we would reach about midnight. And there were soldier-boys guarding each individual car all the way young, beardless youths armed to the teeth, but always ready with a smile when a photograph Avas suggested or cigarettes or cakes. But disillusioning as it may be to believe, it wasn't necessary to send a man ahead to shoo the chickens from the track, nor did we have as traveling companions any glamorous ladies who might be interna- tional spies in disguise nor any bandit generals. And as for the dining-car ! Well, I would let the others eat first, and if they assured me that the food really tasted better than it looked, then I took heart and ordered something. But for China it was a luxurious train, and it arrived everywhere almost on time, and we had no complaints to make whatsoever.

What is xiao? The word has been translated since the Jesuits in the 1500's as “filial piety,” but I do not use the term here because it denotes a subjective state, i.e. a state of mind, a state of worshipful piety, rather than an objective state, i.e. a way of conduct, indeed a whole way of living one’s life, as prescribed by the sages. Instead of “filial piety”, I think the phrase “being good to parents” captures more the essence of xiao. There remains, however, the problem that xiao, as set forth in this definitive work, is not confined to being good to one’s parents but also includes being good to one’s ancestors. Thus the phrase “being good to parents and ancestors” may be more appropriate. Since that is a bit long-winded and clumsy, I have decided to just use the transliteration, “xiao”.

  • The Qin Revolution
    Indiana University, History G380 – class text readings – Spring 2010 – R. Eno 4.1 THE QIN DYNASTY Background The state of Qin was the westernmost of the patrician states of China, and had originally been viewed as a non-Chinese tribe. Its ruler was granted an official Zhou title in the eighth century B.C. in consequence of political loyalty and military service provided to the young Zhou king in Luoyang, the new eastern capital, at a time when the legitimate title to the Zhou throne was in dispute after the fall of the Western Zhou. The sustained reign of Duke Mu during the seventh century did much to elevate the status of Qin among the community of patrician states, but the basic prejudice against Qin as semi-“barbarian” persisted. Never during the Classical period did Qin come to be viewed as fully Chinese in a cultural sense. Qin produced great warriors, but no great leaders after Duke Mu, no notable thinkers or literary figures. Its governmental policies were the most progressive in China, but these were all conceived and implemented by men from the east who served as “Alien Ministers” at the highest ranks of the Qin court, rather than by natives of Qin. Yet Qin aspired to full membership in the Chinese cultural sphere. Li Si, the Prime Minister who shepherded Qin’s conquest of the other states, captured what must have been a widely held view of Qin in a memorial he sent to the king before his elevation to highest power. “To please the ear by thumping a water jug, banging a pot, twanging a zither, slapping a thigh and singing woo-woo! – that is the native music of Qin.

  • Circle of Fear in Early China
    religions Article Circle of Fear in Early China Michael Nylan * and Trenton Wilson Department of History, University of California–Berkeley, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Montesquieu wrote that “China is a despotic state whose principle is fear”. And indeed, in the early modern context in China, fear and despotism, on the one hand, were opposed to ziyou ê 1 (“freedom”), on the other. These constructs created a discursive space in which theorists of the nation-state felt the need to articulate the complex relations binding despotism to fear. By contrast, during the early empires in China a different set of relations was imagined, wherein salutary fear was aligned against both despotism and freedom and, crucially, with according others a proper sense of dignity. For by the arguments of remote antiquity, “submission to instruction and fear of the gods” functioned both as a vital check on despotism and as the key barrier to the unchecked and unhampered self-assertion by subjects and rulers. Yet this notion of ritual operating within a circle of fear it helped to foster has so far escaped scholarly notice, perhaps because it does not square with the ritual theories that dominate our modern discourse and perhaps because such ritual fear has been dismissed easily as remnant, primitive superstition. Keywords: ritual theories; fear; classical China; autocratic rule; freedom Citation: Nylan, Michael, and Trenton Wilson. 2021. Circle of Fear “It’s hard to believe that people’s fear of offending in Early China. Religions 12: 26. is greater than their fear of pain, but it is”.

  • The Last Will and Testament of the Qianlong Emperor, 1799
    Chapter 2 The Last Will and Testament of the Qianlong Emperor, 1799 Aisin-Gioro hala-i Hungli, usually known as the Qianlong Emperor, ruled the Great Qing Empire for sixty years (r. 1735–1796) as the Son of Heaven, the Khan of Khans, the Chakravartin King, the Overlord of Mongolia, Xinjiang, Qinghai, and Tibet, the Pacifier of Taiwan, Yunnan, Annam, Burma, and Dzungaria, and the Incarnate Bodhisattva Manjusri. Such fanciful titles were part of an impe- rial cosmology in which Qianlong portrayed himself as a universal overlord ruling over Manchu, Mongol, Tibetan, Uighur, and Han peoples in a multi-cul- tural, multi-ethnic, and multi-religious empire. Looking back over his sixty year reign, the Qianlong Emperor could con- fidently boast of his military exploits. Book-ended by the suppression of two uprisings among the Miao people in southern China (1735–36, 1795–97), Qianlong included among his “Ten Great Campaigns” two wars against Tibetan hill people in the Sichuan border area of Jinchuan (1747–49, 1770–76), estab- lishing a protectorate over Tibet (1751), three expeditions against the Dzungar khanate and Ili city-states (1755–59), a series of often inconclusive wars along the periphery of the empire in Burma (1765–69), Taiwan (1786–88), Annam (1788), and two spectacular offensives against the Nepalese Gurkhas (1790–92). By the 1790s, Qianlong had not only maintained the integrity of the tradition- al Chinese provinces, but also expanded into Inner Asia to create an empire of some five and a half million square miles, the largest in Chinese history. Although Qianlong bragged about his military accomplishments—and many of them were significant—the latter years of his reign were marred by the inability of the Banner armies to suppress what later became known as the White Lotus Rebellion (1796–1804).
