In the traditional culture of China,the most important emphasis on human moral education is the Confucian school and the important exposition from the Confucian ancestors,especially in the pre-Qin period,which has made outstanding contributions for thousands of years later China's ethical culture heritage.Xunzi as a famous thinker,educator,is also one of the representatives of Confucian.Through the spring and autumn and Warring States period of hundreds of years of continuous war,summing up the wars and the chaos of society,he put forward the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired in order to make people pay attention to moral cultivation and return to ethical norms and social ritual.At present,in the globalization,information and socialization,we explore and analyze the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired,because it has important inspiration and modern enlightenment for the socialization of people and social construction.This study takes the though of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired on Xunzi as the core,including six chapters.The first chapter is the introduction part of this article.It is main that we discuss the significance,research status and research methods about this article.The second chapter is the summary of the thought.From the ideological connotation and background of the times,we expound the theory of rectification for human nature,which is proposed by Xunzi.The creation of this thought is influenced by productivity revolution,political turmoil,cultural contention during the Warring States period.The third chapter to the fifth chapter is the main parts of this article.The third chapter discusses the theoretical basis of the though of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired.The thought ofhuman nature and the concept of heaven and man are the theoretical basis for the though of changing human nature to clarify the human nature and the concept of heaven in the relevant knowledge.These can lay the theoretical premise for the though of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired.The fourth chapter is the key part of this article.It is main to completely elaborate the thought in the necessity,possibility,performance,and methods,in order to expression of the specific content of ideas from the whole on this thought.The fifth chapter is the purpose of this article.Inheritance of traditional culture should take its essence.According to the preceding discussion,there are some references and inspirations in Xunzi's thought,especially in the real value of personal and social development.The sixth chapter is the conclusion of the though.Finally the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired and its modern enlightenment are discussed and summarized.The conclusion of this study generally covers the following three parts: firstly,the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired on Xunzi is based on his thought of human nature and the concept of heaven and man.Xunzi's human nature is the natural nature of man,and it is a process that tends to be evil.Human evil is the result of a transitional indulgence desire,so correction of human nature must be man-made intervention.Xunzi's the concept of heaven and man break through the ancient concept about relationship between heaven and man in an ancient naive materialism.He think that nature is regular and advocate the development of human subjective initiative to change the world and his own virtue.Secondly,there is a complete framework in the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired.The necessity is the persistent pursuit for gentleman personality in Confucian tradition and requirements in social stability.The possibility is due to people's heart perception,thinking about consciousness,living in a group of human society.In performance,the moral king formulates the ritual to make people become gentlemen as the goal,which people will study ritual in the highest level learning content.To rectify thehuman nature and cultivate the moral understanding,we must learn from teachers,use the ritual and law,choose environment,emphasize music education and use the moral talents.Thirdly,the modern enlightenment of the thought of changing human nature then rise the moral acquired includes three aspects.In the aspect of social development of people,it can play human sociality,and pay attention to the judgment of rational thinking and try to build an ideal personality.In the aspect of cultivating the social values,we should pay attention to the construction of education,moral construction,family style construction,literary and artistic creation,in order to provide a good guideline for the development of the external environment.In the aspect of social construction,we should focus on the construction between efficiency and fairness and comprehensively promote the construction of the rule of law.At the same time,we must fully understand and use of talents,making the development of human harmony and national unity.
