The creative background of Xue Ji;
The Book of Learning is one of the Book of Rites, which was written from the 4th century BC to the 3rd century BC. According to Guo Moruo's textual research, its author may be Ke, a student of Mencius.
Gu Shusen supported Guo Moruo's view that Xue Ji was written by Le Zhengzi, a Confucian scholar, at the end of the Warring States Period, and borrowed ideas from the school, probably by Ke, a disciple of Mencius. Gao Shiliang also agrees with this view, thinking that Xueji is a work of the Warring States period, and the specific time is in the late Warring States period.
Its author should be Ke, because Ke is Mencius' favorite pupil and deeply influenced by Mencius' thought. Secondly, Le Zhengzi also studied under Zeng Shen, "Le Zhengzi said that I had heard of Ceng Zi".
