Resumo

O conceito de moralidade é um aspecto essencial da educação e cultivo moral, que tem sido foco de atenção de filósofos, ao longo da história. Como culminação do pensamento confucionista, Mêncio contribuiu significativamente para os conceitos morais que constituem parte integrante do confucionismo e da cultura tradicional chinesa. Este artigo se centra na filosofia moral de Mêncio, examinando explicitamente a sua teoria da natureza humana e o conceito de personalidade ideal. Ao explorar essas ideias, o artigo visa a elucidar a relevância contemporânea da filosofia moral de Mêncio.
