Book Description:
|
Modern interpreters of the Analects (Lunyu) only rarely acknowledge the legacy of two thousand years of interpretation that mediated the meaning of this foundational text in Confucianism. This book attempts to redress our neglect of commentaries by analyzing four key works dating from the late second century to the mid-nineteenth century.
