Introduction: 

 Hsun Tzu is the most important philosophical work  and political essays in the late Warring States Period.  It summarized the contention of a hundred schools of  thought at that time by Xun Kuang and also involved  his own thoughts. This book consists of 32 chapters,  which are related to the aspects of philosophy, ethics,  politics, military affairs and education. Each chapter is  independent, composed of three parts: ancient Chinese  prose, modern Chinese and Japanese and German  translation. Hsun Tzu used lots of antithetical parallelism  in his essays which makes the articles ambitious. For  example, in Convince on Learning, there are more than  sixty metaphors continuously which enhance the vitality  of the article greatly; in Cheng phase, the writing style is  six sentences with four rhymes. Although, it talks about  the ups and downs and what should be remembered in  the history, it created a new style of writing form which  was considered as the father of Tanci.
