In modern times,the traditional political and religious system was torn.With the disintegration of the temple school system,the termination of the monarchy as well as the lack of Confucian authority,the political,ideological,and institutional foundations of sacrifices to Confucius collapsed.However,as the most significant cultural heritage in Chinas sacrificing tradition,sacrifice to Confucius was still drifting on the historical stage in modern times.On one hand,it was pushed to the altar of the power.On the other hand,its influence extended to folk society.As a symbolic ceremony,sacrifice to Confucius was easy to perform and thus it has the possibility to be separately extracted and present in different political and cultural environment.One unsettled topic left by history is: on the direction from temple to folk life and from politics to culture,how we could explore the transformation space of sacrifice to Confucius in modern times and what would be the new points of its succession.
