Confucianism and Its Rivals is a book written by Herbert A. Giles in 1915. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of Confucianism, one of the world’s oldest philosophical and ethical systems, and its impact on Chinese society. It also explores the rival schools of thought that emerged in China during the same period, such as Taoism, Legalism, and Mohism. Giles examines the key tenets of Confucianism, including the importance of education, filial piety, and the role of the ruler in society. He also discusses the criticisms of Confucianism by its rivals, particularly the Legalists, who advocated for a more authoritarian approach to governance. The book provides a valuable insight into the intellectual and cultural history of China and remains an important reference for scholars of Chinese philosophy and history.The Hibbert Lectures, Second Series, Lectures Delivered in the University Hall of Dr. Williams Library, London.
