"confucius" Confucius' Disciple Study

Confucian disciples' studies and research is an important aspect of the study of early Confucianism. In the past, their major studies were based on the Shiji ? Zhongni Dizi Liezhuan written by Sima Qian, abandoning Kongzi Jiayu and many other valuable information, resulting in highly constrained research. With a large amount of new materials unearthed, Kongzi Jiayu has been re-examined gradually, in which, the Qishier Dizi Jie and the Dizi Xing should be re-assessed.In the comparison of Shiji ? Zhongni Dizi Liezhuan and Qishier Dizi Jie , people will find that the latter have demonstrated in many ways more direct and reliable source of material. For example, Kongzi Jiayu contained in the Confucian philosophy of 10 disciples is consistent with the order of Confucian Analect. To be on Fan Xu and Yan Hui's age, Jiayu seems to be more reasonable. On the issue of whether Gongboliao was Confucian disciples, Sima Qian has recorded significant error. The study referred to the reference of "The Confucian disciples asked" in Zhongni Dizi Liezhuan should be Konzi Jiayu.Compare Dadailiji ?Daijiangjunwenziwe and Kongzi Jiayu Dizixing , we can see that in the credibility of the latter is much larger than the former. Compared with Dizixing, Weijiangjunwenzi regular everywhere in the written account of the realities of political Han Dynasty, and thus more real than Jiayu to retain the original appearance of materials. From the text content of the adjustment and adaptation of its words, the authenticity of Jiayu seems more prominent.Through the study, Jiayu has a high value of the literature regarded as "pseudo-book" in the past. It is an important material for the study of Conficius and his disciples. This study is helpful to the second thought of the flaws, which is in the use of the materials of Congfucian disciples' study, and open a period for Confucius and Confucianism studies.
