Confucian Businessman: a Saint Who Started His Career in Mourning Rituals
About This Novel
Mr. Liu Qiyu, the historian of the Republic of China, brushed away the incense ashes and pointed out to us the back of the bamboo slip: "In the fifteenth year, I studied etiquette. I studied privately and not in a scholastic academy. I taught practical skills in funeral rituals." The phrase "the little man Confucian with nothing to do" in "Yong Ye" originally meant that Confucianism was cut into two halves - the gentleman who played elegant music in the temple, and the villain who cared for corpses in the market. Confucius stepped on the cold bluestone of the latter and climbed up the white jade steps of the former. This volume follows this vein and explores the cracks of the altar in the style of planting flowers with a cold knife: ? Volume 1: The Beginning of Funeral Ceremony ? Volume 2 The Empire of Industry and Academia ? Volume 3: The Revolution Failed ? Volume 4 Symbolic Alienation This book is not a biography of a saint. It peels off the layers of gold foil of "Great Saint" and "Eternal Teacher" accumulated in later generations, and restores Confucius to a man who struggled to survive in the mud and corpse odor, and failed to climb between power and capital. In the end, the saint became a flower planter. He buried his bones in the soil and hatched them into seeds with abacus beads of "benevolence, justice, propriety and wisdom". Under the watering of Confucian merchants of "Economics of Filial Piety", new flowers bloomed continuously for two thousand years.
