The righteousness and benefit conception of pre-Qin Confucianism is one of the major theoretical contents of the pre-Qin Confucianism and one of the main philosophical categories and topics of Chinese traditional philosophy.The content is broad,thoughtful and rich in philosophy,which reflects the pre-Qin Confucianism and Chinese traditional culture of the ideological core and the theoretical outlook.This thesis mainly discusses and analyzes the thought of righteousness and benefit conception in pre-Qin Dynasty,and focuses on the theoretical premise,theoretical content,theoretical characteristics and theoretical value of four aspects of its discussion and interpretation.Theoretical premise.The concept of "righteousness" and the concept of "benefit" were not enough to form a close relationship before Confucius,and it could not constitute a set of philosophical categories or topics.Therefore,the first chapter of this paper mainly discusses the prerequisite of the pre-Qin Confucian concept of righteousness and benefit,which means the relationship between the concept of"righteousness" and the concept of "benefit" and the question of how the concept of righteousness and benefit are formed.In the first chapter,the author first combs and explains the evolution of the word meaning of"righteousness" and "profit",which concludes that "righteousness" is developed from "religious”and "patriarchal" to "consciousness",(The interaction between man and nature)and(interpersonal interaction)contained in the word "benefit".Moreover,the author thinks that Confucius' s transformation of the concept of "virtue" in Zhou Dynasty and the invention of "benevolence" directly influence the establishment of the relationship between "righteousness" and "benefit" and the formation of its "righteousness and benefit view".Because the word"righteousness" and "benefit" will become the third-level meaning"consciousness" and "interpersonal interaction".Only the word"righteousness" is no longer expressed as a fixed religious ritual and"dogma" type of behavior,but rather a "conscious" pursuit of self-improvement and internal personality demanding,it will be used to express "human" world,and then with the "human interact" perspective"benefit" associated and corresponded,the formation of a range of values for people to explore,this is actually Confucius inherited the Western Zhou "humanistic turn "After another thought breaking,that is,with"human "perspective to explain and solve the" human "problem.Theoretical content.In the second chapter of this thesis,the author mainly discusses the main theoretical content of Confucianism in the pre-Qin period.In the second chapter,the author elaborates the theoretical development of the thought of Confucianism after Confucius opened the"righteousness and benefit" value,and divided it into three main characters part of the elaboration:Between Kong Meng(Zengzi,Ziyou,Zi Si),Menzi and Xunzi.In the development of the theory of pre-Qin righteousness and benefit,we can clearly see the development and deepening of the concept of "righteousness" and the concept of "benefit"in the pre-Qin Confucian thought and the theoretical dimension.For example,Zengzi divides his concept of righteousness and benefit into two values:"for profit" and "fo righteousness".The Ziyou is divided into two political modes:"Great Harmony" and "Moderately prosperous society"To the development of Confucius righteousness and benefit conception;Zisi is on the basis of previous theory,the concept of righteousness and benefit can be deepened into "internal" and "outside" two methods of unity;Menzi is in the "Identification of human and poultry" and" the argument between Wang(Kingcraft)and Ba(hegemony)"point of view of what is the concept of righteousness and benefit.In short,since Confucius,the pre-Qin Confucian concept of righteousness and benefit continue to be developed and deepened,and give the "righteousness " and "benefit" word deeper theoretical connotation,so that the dialectical unity between the two in the more ambitious framework of the argument and interpretation,ultimately,the "righteousness" concept and "benefit" concept of dialectical unity of the relationship becomes the main theoretical tone.Theoretical traits.In the third chapter,it mainly discusses the theoretical and ideological characteristics of Confucianism in the pre-Qin period.The author mainly discusses it through three aspects:First,the characteristics of the way of thinking embodied in the pre-Qin Confucianism.Such as the way of re-thinking of "holistic",the practical way of thinking of "reality",the way of thinking in the way of "Tiandao",and the introverted way of thinking of "reflection";secondly,The difference of the concept of righteousness and benefit in the pre-Qin Confucian school.Thirdly,The same of the concept of righteousness and benefit in the pre-Qin Confucian school.In the above three aspects,the thought of pre-Qin Confucianism embodies the unique theoretical characteristics of its own school,and fully demonstrates the theoretical implication of the pre-Qin Confucian view of righteousness and benefit in this theoretical trait.We are more deeply aware of the development of its theory and deep heritage.Theoretical value.In the fourth chapter,the author mainly discusses the theoretical value of Confucianism in the pre-Qin period.Its theoretical value is mainly reflected in the contribution to the pre-Qin philosophy,and the pre-Qin(Taoism,legalists,Mohism),the impact on contemporary values.The fourth chapter is on the basis of the conclusions made by the theoretical premise,the theoretical content and theoretical characteristics,and try to use pre-Qin Confucian concept of righteousness and benefit for contemporary values,So that it can serve for the moment better.In the conclusion of this paper,the author mainly discusses the evaluation,revelation and limitation of the thought of righteousness and benefit of pre-Qin Confucianism.Pointed out that "human" is"righteousness" and "benefit”of the unity,cannot do one thing and neglect the other.To combine the dialectical unity of "righteousness"and "benefit" in the pre-Qin Confucian value,it is necessary to combine"morality" and "interest" in the new era background,and to develop"morality" from the limitation of "interest" out,but also always do"human-oriented",respect for the individual's "benefit",and with""righteousness" unified in the human value.At the same time,it is also necessary to see the limitations of the times of the theory,which requires us in the new era background to make a new interpretation and transformation,in order to promote national and social order stability and harmonious operation.
