Description

America’s premier biographer for young other people illuminates the remarkable life and a long way-reaching influence of the famous Chinese philosopher.

Born in China in 551 B. C., Confucius rose from poverty to the heights of his country’s ruling class. But then he surrender his high post for the lifetime of an itinerant philosopher. “The Analects” collects his teachings on education and government, the definition of nobility, the equality of man and the appropriate approach and purpose of living, ideas that at last spread to the West and influenced the good thinkers of the Enlightenment. And five centuries before Christ, Confucius set forth his own Golden Rule: “Don’t impose on others what you don’t wish for yourself.”
