essentially they are approaching life with different questions in mind. Confucius focuses on how to be good - a junzi. righteous person-君子。 and describes this. Mozi's focuses more on political practicality. there is much to say about both philosophers.

Maoism. Mohism. Moism. 3 very different ideologies with unfortunately similar spellings. Moism seems to have little information about it available beyond the Wikipedia article which has little to no researchable references. The Zhuang minority has plenty more interesting info - including this article. www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1872497322000229

@@sinolit seems like a gap in the literature, might have to dedicate an anthropological degree to them.... that article is interesting though! thank you! It would be much simpler if the english rendered it as mozism instead of mohism. Why is the 子 always dropped in these names when they are rendered in English

Thanks

yes. a very good scene. He endured much and the reason why he started the rebellion is telling - that he was essentially fighting for his life after failing to deliver the convicts to Xianyang on time and in full number. Also, the final scene in episode 80 is great too.

yes. these are the traditional characters 經濟 - 经济

thank-you.

Yes. it's a great source of wisdom. I am working on an analysis of Xiangyu and why he lost. Xiangyu was reputedly a fearsome warrior. He was also a man of "honour" at times. eg. at the feast of hongmen "鴻門宴" refusing to go along with Fan Zeng's plan of killing Liu Bang - a decision which came back to haunt him. I've come to have respect for this type of character. Ultimately, there is no stable "Han dynasty" and Liu Bang without the brute force of someone like Xiangyu to sweep the table of the Qin dynasty (at the battle of Julu).

The last episode 80 has Han Xin returning to his former haunts and there's some well earned plot pay-off to be found there.

enjoy. It's an underrated film.

yes. Han xin makes this point in KingsWar. Liu Bang was a master of delegation. At the same time, Xiangyu didn't help himself. 有一范增而不能用

Glad you enjoyed it

You have solved the entire domain of history, hats off to you. :- )

@@sinolit no need for that. All common sense. Why look at history. Present day events just look at down fall of G7 n uncle sam lol. Brics n puttin alliances so mch powerful now 😁👌

which leader are you referring to?

Indeed, the character is different in Chinese. Interestingly, Zhang Liang 張良, chief military strategist of Liu Bang (Han Gaozu) was descended from an aristocrat family in the former Hán 韓 state.

Thank-you. This series - Kingswar deserves more attention than it gets.

You have piqued my interest and will definitely give it a try. Thank you!

it was available on Netflix last time I looked. The subtitles are reliably good. It contains many chengyu from Chinese history.

@@sinolit surprised its available in netflix as King’s War! Already finished the first episode. Anyway I will avoid watching your clips for now just to avoid spoilers but looking forward to watching them

yes. it was a pleasant surprise that the subtitles were good to me. usually the subtitles are awful

yes. all the decisions made in adaptation for the Netflix version somehow managed to make a great Science fiction, dull, uninspiring and rushed.

Thank-you. KingsWar is rich in such historical insight.

I remember this scene. Xiao He read documents beforehand and knew that the area was good for farming. It was very difficult to get there though but I guess it worked to their advantage since they were safe from attacks

@@seeanthonyn The Sichuan basin was still fairly new to the mostly Yellow River basin born civilisations - only being incorporated in the Qin conquest. It is plausible that Fan Zeng would know little about it - a fatal error.

Thank-you. The series deserves more attention than it gets.

yes. he's great as Xiangyu. A suitable mixture of arrogance and naive child.

James Legge needs to be known by more people. He was an incredible human being and it's sign of our times that so little is known of his legacy.

We are in agreement that the "manchus" qing dynasty were not a mere replacement of family at the top. They considered themselves as different. Unfortunately, most people were unaware of subversion at the top due to the fact that so many turncoats co-operated with the new "regime"
