History
1 answer:
insens350 [35]3 years ago
6 0
Legalism became the official philosophy of the Qin Dynasty when the first emperor of China, Shi Huangti, rose to power and banned all other philosophies as a corrupting influence.

If you study the history of the Chinese emperors, you'll notice that this is a pretty common thing amongst them all. (ex: the mandate of heaven which outlined things rulers needed to do to remain "virtuous") Basically, every new dynasty came up with a new set of rules outlining exactly how the previous dynasty was evil.



Your simplified answer: He supported his policies of legalism because he thought all other philosophies to be corrupt.

What did a Greek philosophers believe was most important in life?
Crank

Answer that I'll offer:  PURSUING WISDOM

There were many Greek philosophers, and their ideas were not all in agreement with each other.  But in general, the Greek philosophers all agreed that pursuing wisdom is the most important thing in life.  One of the earliest of Greek philosophers, Pythagoras (in the 6th century BC), is thought to have coined the term "philosopher."  The report is that Pythagoras did not want to claim to be a wise man who already had great wisdom, but that he was a "lover of wisdom" who sought to be wise.  In Greek, "philos" is a word for "love" and "sophia" is the word for wisdom.  So a "philosopher" is a "lover of wisdom."

The great philosopher Socrates (5th century BC) was famous for saying, "The unexamined life is not worth living."  He saw the goal of his life as constantly seeking wisdom -- and that what truly made him wise was recognizing how little he truly knew with certainty.

Other Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle and more followed in that tradition.  They did not all agree on all the details of what the best pattern is for life in this world.  But they did all seek wisdom as the most important thing in life.
