The aim of this essay is to clarify the fact that emotions play a great role in our moral judgement and moral practice by analysing Mengzi"s moral shame or xiu 羞 in terms of the contemporary studies on emotion. First, I criticize Kant"s limited understanding of moral emotions when he argues the function of the practical reason on the one hand, and analyze the process of how Mengzi justifies several moral emotions on the other hand. Second, we can assure that moral shame, which is one of the four sprouts or si duan 四端, is the sprout of righteousness or yi 義 and a necessary condition to develop courage or yong 勇 in Mengzi"s text. Third, I analyze how Mengzi"s moral shame or xiu is produced in terms of the theory of emotion. With these arguments, we can see that Mengzi"s virtue ethics gives an insight why and how diverse moral emotions are formed in our ordinary life.
