	<span style="line-height:1.5;">This thesis is an exploration of the themes and
symbols of Confucian culture in the early animated feature films of Hayao
Miyazaki. It deals with the background and knowledge of the selected topic, the
profound meaning of Hayao Miyazaki¡¯s animation and the spread of Confucian
culture in his animations which convey
distinctive ethos and the advanced experience
of success. Hayao Miyazaki¡¯s animations have inherited traditional
oriental cultural morality, and embodied the pursuit of universal values, such as people¡¯s care for the
vulnerable, their cherishing of the family, their praise of the
friendship, their encouragement for the spirit of struggle and hard work, and their
fight against misfortunes. Hayao Miyazaki¡¯s animations play an important role
in spreading Confucianism to the world.</span>
