works appreciation
In the photo, Confucius put forward three aspects of his education: poetry, etiquette and music, and pointed out their different functions. It requires students not only to talk about personal accomplishment, but also to have comprehensive and extensive knowledge and skills.
"Poetry" has a strong appeal, which can enlighten the mind, cultivate temperament and make people understand the true meaning of life. "Rites" can make people behave normally, establish their personality and stand on their own feet in social groups. "Music" cultivates sentiment and completes self-cultivation and scholarship.
