Confucianism IntroductionTaoism already printed in Chinese literature and was written about the extent of word.We see a series of Chinese martial arts such as architecture, sculpture, painting and music, which includes the teachings of Taoism and Confucianism.It is still evident in the Chinese literature, in which we, the application of these philosophies of the Chinese people living.Literature life like a cliché, it is necessary to study further the work explanation.In literature that represents a nation, we can easily understand the lifestyle of that nation, the beliefs of the people, and people philosophy.In in the movie, "The Road Home", one sees the film as an honest representation of how a Chinese film I life.Indeed with Taoist and Confucian thinking eye, because it better you can film and paper aims deeper.This designed to understand the characters in the cinematic representation of Taoist and Confucian must read philosophy books is to analyze beliefs. The Taoist "The Road Home" is the title of the film has an obvious basis Philosophy.Tao Taoist means "way" or "way", making it at home so obvious and direct application of novel philosophy.Though Taoist original story Bao Shin, remember to not take the same approach, or even the topic reflects.Even beginning of the film is the way of the image, the time introduced.It first time not only shows a trip from city to another, but also symbolizes the long and winding road in the heart of the narrator parents.The character seems to be "far" from his parents.He seems so familiar with the road that was right for her. Gap.With the road and this symbol of the narrator is an implication of the Taoist Taoist idea can be derived. He believes that man is an integral part of the luminosity of the universe, but were forced to do something and be competitive.The narrator is an example of this is self-assertion.He the city, even the competitive situation in the occupied City life.Unlike his father before he withdrew to a remote village, a teacher for the poor, the course taken in the city at least life.At finally, as a consolation, who have taught students in the city for a day before the return City.h somehow try to hear what he has heard his father stood in front of students. The school building was replaced by a new one.Most well there on their end, is the education of students is an important sign of its commitment to the legacy of Confucianism father.The in "The Road Home" section replaced seems even more evident in the Confucian thought, that respond to the film taoisti.Uno the basic teachings of Confucianism, the reform of government.In the film, the teacher who was called from town to town, some questions about politics.Some critics have interpreted those calls as part of the problems the government during the era of anti-Campaign.Whatever law, which is the fact that reforms in the government makes, of course, the teachings of Confucius are evident in film Confucianism.Another teacher education, the father of narrator.These are respect for elders and authority, study well, and demand respect for the family near bonds.The for older people significantly in the film, and other elders in asia film.Not only film were observed, this doctrine has always been repeated in Western movie.The the only people likely to have less respect for elders, but is beyond the point. Authority should also be considered such, Luo, professor, went into the city and the penalty for leaving the city, as Zhao Di sick.He the government could have escaped orders and live with her lover, but waited the right time, and followed The command was probably his superiors.Education the protagonist of the film thought.The Confucius an uneducated young woman, however, the other is a young and educated man.Even highly respected in the film, illiteracy young man came in ugly.However something because the love of a woman from a philosophy or theory is known, is the love victor.Although, education remains the most important film.Obviously, the storyteller parents, we see these symbols: school, teaching young people, teachers, school rehabilitation, and the narrator school.Though lesson in the female protagonist is illiterate, is the object of love of a teacher should not overlooked.This your request, someone trained to be your partner in order to fill the defects have to be designed, even if this interpretation as somehow the power the teachings of Confucius issue.Some film obviously now is the loyalty loyalty and courage, courage.Zhao for his love, no matter who was also admirable.She loyal.She faithful, waiting for their fight sick.In loved to the end, what their wage, wine lovers to her.She is luckier than others who have been waiting for their loved ones, to give love, but the same can be failed.Well reciprocity, another teaching of Confucius. Love begets love, as the cliché, but it is true that Confucians.Somehow but can not help but think that she is happier, even when compared with other cinesi.Non fortunate enough to be condemned by society to marry someone you love, or maybe just to show affection Lou.It note that parts may not choose their parents are usually their husbands. His arranged marriage have therefore seen in the movie to someone you do not have the antes.Por to fall in love is something Neues.Das s' for his love story famous.Still become the same, the happiness was not sentenced society.ConclusionIn's conclusion is that the film proved an effective way of life one way or the other Taoist and Confucian thought has Chinese.In film.The by the symbol, the road had also been absorbed present throughout the film, is a great symbol for Confucianism Taoism.Though can be difficult for others to see the symbolism of the street without any knowledge of Chinese philosophy can reveal the importance of the film is road.Wholly, the film is a great work of art worthy to be won numerous awards. .. .. .. .. ..
