About The Analects Of Confucius
Product Description "This is the Confucius translation for our time."―Jonathan Mirsky, The Times [London] In this terse, brilliant translation, Simon Leys restores the human dimension to Confucius. He emerges a full-blooded character with a passion for politics and a devotion to the ideals of a civilization he saw in decline. Leys's notes draw Confucius into conversation with the great thinkers of the Western tradition. In all, this volume provides new readers the perfect introduction to a classic work. Review This is the Confucius translation for our time. -- Jonathan Mirsky, The Times [London] About the Author Simon Leys is the pseudonym of Pierre Ryckmans, a noted scholar and astringent observer of Chinese culture and politics.
