Zhang Heng's philosophy.

I need to write about Zhang Heng's philosophy, but all I can find is about how he was an inventor and mathematician, and this essay is due Monday, March 8th. I'm not asking anyone to write my essay for me, but if someone could try and help me find some facts about his philosophy, that would be amazing. Thanks. =)

Step-by-step explanation:

I will just say some facts about his thinkings. Cuz I couldn't find anything about his philosophy (even in Chinese).

  • Zhang Heng was a very humble and modest man, his inventions all have a great impact on Chinese history.
  • Zhang Heng was against divination combined with mystical Confucian philosophy. [divination combined with mystical Confucian philosophy is a belief of some kind of witchcraft (back in the ancient Chinese period) and superstition back in the Han Dynasty]
  • Zhang Heng believes artists like unreal things because they can use their imagination on them.
