Confucianism Concept Map Overview
A confucianism concept map organizes the teachings of Confucius, a Chinese thinker who lived from about 551 to 479 BCE. Confucianism centers on ethics, social roles and good government, and it shaped Chinese and East Asian society for centuries. A map shows how these ideas connect.
- Ren: humaneness, compassion and care for others
- Li: ritual propriety and proper social conduct
- Junzi: the ideal person who cultivates virtue
- Filial piety: respect and duty within the family
- Five relationships: ruler, parent, husband, elder brother and friend, with duties
Use the map to revise key terms, compare Confucian ideas with Daoism or Legalism, and plan an essay. Generate a personalized map with CogniGuide from your own notes.
