Description

A superb modern translation of one of China's most famous historical texts. Formed in a time of great unrest, The Analects remains startlingly relevant to contemporary life 2500 years later. This collection of sayings, written down by Confucius' followers, encapsulates his profoundly influential philosophy on humanity, benevolence and goodness. He advocates an ethical social order based on selfless relationships between friends, families, and communities, achieved through a moral code rooted in education, ritual, respect, and integrity. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, this beautifully bound edition features gold foiled edges and ribbon markers, making it a stunning addition to any book lover's collection.
