CONFUCIUS (ALSO K'UNG-FU-TSU, KONG ZI OR KONG FUZI) (551-479 BCE), IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST CHINESE PHILOSOPHERS AND THINKERS OF ALL TIME.

HE LIVED IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE EASTERN ZHOU DYNASTY IN A TIME CALLED "THE SPRING AND AUTUMN PERIOD".

HIS PHILOSOPHIES STRESSED VALUES SUCH AS INTEGRITY, HONESTY, JUSTICE, PERSONAL AND GOVERNMENTAL MORALITY, FAMILIAL LOYALTY, ANCESTOR WORSHIP AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND HAD A GREAT INFLUENCE ON CHINESE SOCIETY, LEGAL DOCTRINE AND TAOIST DOGMA.

ALTHOUGH MANY OF THE WRITINGS ANTTRIBUTED TO HIM CANNOT BE AUTHENTICATED, HIS ETHICAL AND MORAL TEACHINGS, AS WELL AS THOSE THAT FOLLOWED HIS PHILISOPHICAL RULES OF PERSONAL BEHAVIOR AND VALUES, HAD WIDESPREAD PROMINENCE IN CHINESE CULTURE.
