Qin Shi Huang burned the book, why didn t he finish it

Qin Shi Huang believed that useful books would not be burned, but should also use the theories of these books to govern the country, unify thoughts, and consolidate rule.

Why did Qin Shi Huang burn these books? Or why did Lees suggest that these books should be burned?

The reason why Li Si burned such books can be explained from the passage in the "Records of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty". Therefore, we can know that the reason why Li Si wanted to burn books in the first place is likely to avoid people "using the past instead of the present", and the doctor's discussion of politics and the past instead of the present is one of the fuses of this book burning. Liang Qichao in the "Chinese Historical Research Method", discusses the reasons for the obliteration of the book of the Department of History, one of which is that "the facts recorded are easy to touch the taboo of the lord of the time, so Qin burned the book and the historical records of the princes were the most severely affected; The Ming and Qing dynasties banned the destruction of books, and nine out of ten were also in the history department.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period before the Qin Dynasty, the destruction of a country was heard from time to time, but the restoration of the country was also heard from time to time, so if the history can be destroyed, one generation, two generations, people may come to remember the homeland, but five generations, ten generations later, I am afraid it is difficult to say, and Qin Shi Huang's dream is the second, third to tens of millions of generations, how can he not prevent it?

Qin Shi Huang burned the historical records of the princes, in order to avoid their beneficial ridicule, and perhaps to avoid people from remembering their homeland, but these people to avoid are probably not ordinary people, but nobles at that time. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the general people's sense of the state may not be as strong as that of later generations, so it is unlikely that the people's sense of the country will be as strong as it is today. But the princes and nobles are different, once they are destroyed, they often try their best to restore the country, so Qin Shi Huang should be guarding against these people.

The reason why the first emperor burned "poems" and "books" should be to establish a strict ideological rule.

At the suggestion of Li Si, the first emperor of Qin, he ordered the burning of the historical records of the nations other than the "Records of Qin", and handed over the private collection of "poems" and "books" that did not belong to the doctor's museum and burned them within a time limit; There are those who dare to talk about the execution of "poems" and "books", and the extermination of the race in the past and not in the present; Private learning is prohibited, and those who want to learn the laws and regulations must be taught by officials. This is it"Book burning"。At the same time, Qin Shi Huang did not burn practical books on medicine, agriculture and animal husbandry.

If we don't burn it, we don't need a tragedy.

Stupid, it won't be printed after burning.
