Description

The Analects illustrated by C. C. Tsai brings Confucius's timeless wisdom to life in a delightful graphic adaptation. With expressive drawings, this volume presents the influential book as a work that continues to inspire readers today.

Confucius emphasizes the power of society to create sensitive, respectful, and moral individuals, while exploring questions about leadership, virtues, and what makes for a harmonious society. This marvelous introduction to a timeless classic also features an illuminating foreword by Michael Puett and Confucius's original Chinese text in narrow sidebars.

Skilledly translated by Brian Bruya, this edition offers a unique blend of cartoon-style illustrations and artfully presented Chinese text, enriching the book for readers and students of Chinese without distracting from the self-contained English-language cartoons.
