Reviews
It appears to be a book with simple editing, about the thickness of a wooden pillow, containing a short commentary on Mozi in the latter part, the main text with Korean pronunciation, and translations and notes. I started reading it because I became interested in the six chapters related to the School of Names, also known as the Mokjing or Mokbyeon. The early chapters, which seem to represent Mozi's early thought, felt like reading the words of Confucius, but since Mozi contains not only ethics
I believe there are no better books for navigating life than the humanities. Among them, this time I came to read *Mozi*.
It is a book light enough to read in a single night. Unlike Mencius, who asked, "Your Majesty, why do you speak of profit?", Mozi sought profit much more than expected.
Mozi: mute
Eul-yu Cultural Publishing House has published a complete translation of *Mozi*, which contains the philosophy of the Mohist school—one of the representative schools of thought of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods that once rivaled the Confucianism established by Confucius. This book restores the meaning of the original text as much as possible by comparing and contrasting various editions, including collated and vernacular translations. It also includes helpful explanatory notes and chapter outlines to help readers better understand Mohist thought. Although the Mohist school, which advocated innovative ideas at the time, eventually became shunned by the ruling class and Confucianism rose to become the governing ideology, it remains widely unknown; however, it continues to solidify its position as a practical philosophy to this day.
