| has gloss | eng: The Book of Lord Shang (Shang chün shu, Shangjunshu , or colloquially Shangzi; 商君書 ) was an early Legalist work generally attributed to the eponymous Lord Shang. It is a foundational work of that harsh tradition: ""The Book of Lord Shang teaches that laws are designed to maintain the stability of the state from the people, who are innately selfish and ignorant. There is no such thing as objective goodness or virtue; it is obedience that is of paramount importance." The philosophy espoused in this work is quite explicitly anti-Confucian: |

| has gloss | zho: 《商君书》,又称《商子》,为战国商鞅一派法家著作的汇集。在《汉书》中录有二十九篇,但现在仅存二十四篇。其中有些篇所述史实在商鞅死后,说明不是商鞅本人所作,但书中也保留了商鞅遗著,记录了商鞅的言行,约为战国末年商鞅后学编成。韩非子曾提到过这部书。司马迁说:“余尝读商君《开塞》、《耕战》书,与其人行事相类”,认为它的思想内容和商鞅所从事的政治活动相符合。 |
