About mengtzu.com

mengtzu.com is a bilingual, source-aware knowledge site for studying and citing the thought of Mencius.

The site uses first principles as its method: identify the irreducible starting point of Mencius, then unfold its consequences for cultivation, education, politics, and organizations.

The first version establishes independent bilingual pages, core themes, source notes, structured data, and an AI-readable index. Later versions can add passages, commentary, audio, articles, and research tracks.

The editorial rule is simple: fewer pages with real answers are better than keyword-heavy pages with weak substance. Each page should answer a specific question and provide a verifiable source path.
