Extremely abundant morals resources in our country, is our national wealth. And utilize its reasonable development , can not merely offer the theoretical foundation for nowadays construction of the harmonious society, and contribute to propagating China's ancient old civilization, "honesty" is one of the ethical categories in the Confucianists' "5 constant virtues", It is one of the most important carriers of Confucianism, there is extensive and far-reaching influence on China's traditional culture in it. And first the Confucianists Qin sincere thought source of Confucianism one of, fixed the Confucianists sincere basic intension and developing direction of thought its. Carry on systematic combs and studieding to it, not merely help us to hold the spiritual essences of the Confucianists, and offer the theory visual angle of different class for studying the realistic sincere phenomenon that lacks of society. This text regards the Confucianists' primitive classics as the main research object, regard vertical time as the clue, "golden mean", "Mencius", "Xunzi" is specific stage documents in "the Book of Songs" "Shang Shu" ,the "Analects of Confucius","university", Have expounded the fact that since Confucius creats Confucianism in order to lower, first Qin the Confucianists sincere thought every main main content of historical stage and in this stage demonstrated era characteristic, and attempt to look for out the historical orbit of development that it develop from it.The subject part includes five parts of contents . Chapter one described the sincere thought content and characteristic of " Shang Shu " and " the Book of Songs " mainly, the sincere thought of Confucius times developed the orbit before attempting to look for. This text thinks ," Shang Shu * Lv Xing", whether our country extant most early record probe into law and sincere thought historical document of relation, stated strict judicial process , punish severely illegal prison officer , wait a moment for legal thought and sincere thought have realistic meanings very much. At the same time, " Shang Shu " Stated other chapters set up the officer who receives the speech specially, choose the honest person and hold the post, punish severely corrupt officer for wait a moment for measure reflect three generations our country and to understanding of value their ahead of the people right sincere attention of conduct ancient times. The means to use art of "the Book of Songs ", perspect out the sincere folk custom in thoughtful spring and autumn of the west and sincere idea, reflect its strong religion and political complexion. These two classics become sources of the Confucianists' sincere thoughts.Chapter two described the sincere thought of" Analects of Confucius " mainly. As personal private Germany, " Analects of Confucius " should think people " mainly faithful and honest, competent to offer while being sincere", treat faith , nearly reach the stage to the utmost in just as the requisition for honest Germany; As social social morality, for keep order and stability of society, " Analects of Confucius " have against one's will for " elder avoid as taboo ", in order to safeguard the central authority of the society and politics. This seemingly contradictory sincere view, is in fact pregnant with an important component in the sincere ideological system of" Analects of Confucius " --The rudiment of the sincere thought principle, an evaluation criterion to the sincere behavior. We think , " filial piety " is the important value standard of the sincere ideological system of" Analects of Confucius ", and it is its ultimate value standard to keep China's nationality's surviving. Though " Analects of Confucius " sincere thought it sporadicallies appear to be only the language on a few words, lack the intact system, sincere in embryonic state principle, but political sincere thought and sincere thought application of principle their on " the people have honesty set up " its, but the impact on later age is far-reaching.Chapter three described the sincere thought of " golden mean " of "university" mainly. This text thinks , " university " is the first work concentrating on describing the Confucianists' sincere thought in the culture history of our country . " university " on the foundation of political ideology, is it cultivate one's moral character with sincere for the foundation to propose in traditional " parents for the people ", run a country regard cultivating one's moral character as originally run a country idea and cultivate oneself with people in subordinate position will follow the patterns set by their superiors sincere to is it educate mode ,etc. sincere idea to believe in a religion. So, should be as criterion" by protecting my descendants the common people " in choosing the government official, but not satisfied own selfish desire, appoint people on their merits ; Managing money matters for the country, should put interests of common people first, but not in order to accumulate wealth by unfair means ownly; Manage the country and does not rule the common people , but for the purpose of protecting and serving the common people, withsincere for control country with is it conducts state affairs to be each other unified to based on the people originally. In a word, let's run a country the people guidelines " university "" it is hard,evil evil of the people", its aim reflects a " sincere word "Honesty "." golden mean " thinks ," sincere " is a noumenonn of the universe , does not change it days of old, persistent and eternal, it is "way of it", is a rule of the universe movement; It not only can become own but also can become things , So " think getting sincere, people's way even ", it can be regarded as the rule of humanity that " sincere ".Meanwhile," golden mean" thinks, the sage is sincere and unselfish innately, therefore "strive but in,but can't have thought ".integrate in universe rule, the target that the humanity foIlows.Person on it is general the getting " more sincere " to be belong to, through acquired efforts," select good and stubborn ", can reach the " sincere realm " too.If it is in realms not supreme since " university " ethical " to the kind ",then, realm not supreme of" golden mean " " sincere ". << Golden mean >>Continue " Analects of Confucius "," university "on the sincere thought , has drawn support from the theory platform of the world view of Taoist school, it set up saying " it the lines the sincere ",under open by " Mencius ", idea not sincere of Ru Song, it is the article like an important milestone on China's sincere intellectual history." Mencius " has inheritted the thought that" the benevolence is studied " of "Analects of Confucius ", puts forward the ethical idea that " the human nature one is good ", inherit and develop" university " " golden mean " " humanity sincere " and idea on " it line sincere ", put forward the basic idea that " humanity is thought of sincerely ", and set up one's own sincere idea on the theory platform where " the sex is good ", have against wind that the Warring states swindle, finish " honesty " merge into " 5 human relations ", thus confirmed basically that " honest Germany " is in the Confucianists' ethical orthodox status.Meanwhile, it propose " Mencius " " it is in only justice in " principle not sincere,make" Analects of Confucius " comparatively fuzzy rule not getting more concrete not sincere, have effectivenesses even more. Meanwhile, this text thinks , with the difference of " Analects of Confucius ", the ultimate value standard of" Mencius '"s sincere thought is " way of filial piety Ti", think so long as " letter " that does not offend against this bottom line is worth recommending.Chapter five described " Xunzi '"s sincere thought." Xunzi" regards " evil theory of the sex " as the theory platform, in inheritting the foundation of the theories offorefathers , open up the path separately, make " Xunzi '"s sincere thought new trend. Sincere carrier, " Xunzi " is that is an organic whole that the first connects " sincere " with sincere thought meaning with " honesty " formally on the Confucianists' sincere intellectual history, there are formal carriers sincerely to thus make . In sincere thought content, " Xunzi " has developed and perfected the Confucianists' sincere theory , it propose " it is for army " teacher of king, "when making and the love not sincere one ",etc. view not sincere not military," publish but name chapter, friend pass too " for view of making friends that friend become famous, "on declare it is the bright make not managing not distinguishing" "it is careful to make not it is be profound to doubting to have", improved by transparency and administration of local officials viewed not sincere when "people the poorer to cheat promptly" not political, expound the fact sincere and "envy", "gift", relation "intelligently" ,etc, Unless it is afterwards in thousands of year, the Confucianists development of thought not sincere, Right deviation either left or, or the radical or gentlely, have not broken this pattern basically.There is the following several respect in the place of main innovation of this text and main conclusion.(l)This text with first main research objects in classics in the Confucianists Qin, investigate first the sincere thought content and characteristic in different historical stages of the Qin's systematically for the first time, is it look for appear historical orbit of development its to attempt, for research work lay the foundation in the future.(2)This text defines concept intension, such as the sincere carrier, sincere thought carrier,etc. for the first time, clarify the difference of sincere and sincere thoughts and different research object, at the same time it propose a series of it is sincere thought discipline term of field, such as carrier, the principle, the principle not ultimate not sincere not sincere not sincere,etc.Thus prepare for the system construction of discipline.(3)The argumentation for the first time of this text is flattered, envy the relation with sincere thought, and attempt to inquire after the social origin that non- sincere conduct produce and prevent and cure the measure in terms of anthropology.(4)This text understands Confucius' seemingly contradictory sincere view in terms of anthropology, think that the highest standard that Confucius appraises the sincere behavior is China's national existence, it is sincere so long as does not violate this principle , can all recommend . And Mencius' highest standard on sincere appraisal is thefilial piety, and think that does not only violate the letter of this principle , ones that are worth recommending . This is a reason why the two are close to appraisal that completely contradicts to Guan Zhong too.(5)This text think Mencius existing document first make "honesty" and it returns to be people of " 5 human relations" in recording, consolidate "honesty" formerly a great deal of Germany status of the eye Qin from theory and form, and Qin Chinese period "honesty" enter "5 constant virtues " establish the foundation for afterwards.(6)Declare "sincere administration of local officials view that" have careful to is it doubt profound to lay "bright to is it is it distinguish to manage to lay on this text system expound the fact Xunzi", think Xunzi the Confucianists sincere intellectual history the first system expound the fact "sincere government" Confucianism master of social value.
