Abstract

The cultivation of humanistic literacy plays a crucial role in developing qualified talents in higher education. Through analyzing important concepts in Confucianism in Chinese culture, this article emphasizes the integration of Confucius’s thoughts on “Ren,” morality and virtues into college English teaching, which helps to build moral character of college students. The English course design, also integrating ideological and political elements, aims at strengthening students’ humanistic literacy and cultural awareness through improving their understanding of Confucian philosophy and providing them with practicable ways to fulfill Confucianism.
