論語 by Confucius
"論語" by Confucius is an ancient Chinese philosophical text compiled during the Warring States period (475–221 BC), achieving its final form during the mid-Han dynasty. This collection of sayings and ideas explores Confucius's teachings on moral cultivation, virtue, and leadership. Through concepts like ren (virtue), filial piety, and li (ritual propriety), the text presents a vision of ethical living and responsible citizenship. For over two millennia, its influence has shaped East Asian
thought and values, evolving from a mere commentary to one of Confucianism's central works. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
