source

Xun Zi's persuasion: "the learning of a villain comes from the ear and comes from the mouth. Between the mouth and the ear, there are four inches of ears. How beautiful is the body of seven feet!" Xunzi (about 313-238 B.C.), the author, was named Kuang and named Qing. He was Han nationality. He was also called Sunqing because he avoided the taboo of emperor Xuandi of the Western Han Dynasty and the ancient sound of "Xun" and "sun" was interlinked. At the end of the Warring States period in the Zhou Dynasty, Zhao people were born. He is a famous thinker, writer, politician and one of the representatives of Confucianism. He once served as a sacrificial wine in the imperial palace of Qi Guoji three times, and later served as an order of Chu Lanling (now Shandong Lanling). Xunzi developed Confucianism and advocated the theory of evil nature, which is often compared with Mencius' theory of good nature. It also contributed to the reorganization of Confucian classics. The example is that although he was engaged in the study of Confucian classics at that time, he was also a master of Confucian classics.
