孟子
《孟子》
《孟子》，四书之一,是儒家学派思想家、哲学家孟子抒发自己政治、教育、哲学、伦理等思想观点的语录集。本书记录了孟子于战国时期周游列国，与各国统治者及孟子的学生们的谈话。本书由孟子及其弟子编作，成书于公元前四世纪晚期。本书为语录体，它所倡导的“人性本善”，贯穿于整本书的谈话之中，而对于具体问题的论述，则在孟子给统治者提出的建议当中有所体现。《孟子》是儒家学派经典著作，与《论语》相比，它的论述体现出了一定的进步性。

Mencius（book）
The Mencius, one of the “Four Books”, is a collection of anecdotes and conversations of the Confucian thinker and philosopher Mencius on topics in moral and political philosophy, often between Mencius and the rulers of the various Warring States. The Mencius records his travels and audiences with the various rulers of the Warring States period, his students, and his other contemporaries. A number of linguistic and textual clues suggest that the text was not only written by Mencius himself but also by his disciples, probably during the late 4th century BC. The Mencius comprises alternating short sayings and extensive dialogues on specific philosophical arguments. Its fundamental positions, such as Mencius' famous argument in chapter 6 that human nature is inherently good, are usually presented as conversations between Mencius and contemporaneous thinkers, while arguments on specific issues usually appear in records of his advice and counsel to various rulers. The Mencius was one of the most important texts of early Confucianism, and represents a notable advance over the Analects of Confucius in terms of sophistication of argument.

孟子
孟子(约前372年-前289年)，中国伟大的思想家、教育家，被尊称为“亚圣”，仅次于孔子。孟子名轲，战国时期邹国(今山东邹城市)人。作为儒家学派的代表人物，孟子曾经游历多国宣传他的政治主张。一般认为，孟子"受业子思（孔子的孙子）之门人"。据记载，孟子游历各国的时长前后有二十多年，他主张“仁政”“民本”的思想，并以此为基，为君主提出建议。

Mencius
Mencius or Mengzi (372–289 BC or 385–303 or 302 BC) was a Chinese philosopher who has often been described as the "second Sage", that is after only Confucius himself. Mencius, also known by his birth name Meng Ke, was born in the State of Zou, now locating in the territory of Shandong Province. He was an itinerant Chinese philosopher and sage, and one of the principal interpreters of Confucianism. Supposedly, he was a pupil of Confucius's grandson, Zisi. Like Confucius, according to legend, he travelled throughout China for twenty years to offer advice to rulers for reform.
