{"product_id":"mozi-di-mo-9781557291035","title":"Mozi: A Study and Translation of the Ethical and Political Writings","description":"\u003cp\u003eMozi (fifth century B.C.) was an important political and social thinker and formidable rival of the Confucianists. He advocated universal love -- his most important doctrine according to which all humankind should be loved and treated as one's kinfolk -- honoring and making use of worthy men in government, and identifying with one's superior as a means of establishing uniform moral standards. He also believed in the will of Heaven and in ghosts. He firmly opposed offensive warfare, extravagance -- including indulgence in music and allied pleasures -- elaborate funerals and mourning, fatalistic beliefs, and Confucianism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Di Mo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1557291039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781557291035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Institute of East Asian Studies University of\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.16d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Di Mo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659797606655,"sku":"9781557291035","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mozi-di-mo-9781557291035","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
