Confucius And Confucianism is a book written by Richard Wilhelm, a German sinologist and translator of Chinese texts. The book explores the life and teachings of Confucius, the Chinese philosopher who lived in the 5th century BCE and is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Chinese history.The book begins with a brief biography of Confucius, detailing his upbringing, education, and eventual career as a teacher and philosopher. It then delves into Confucius' teachings, including his emphasis on moral values, social harmony, and the importance of education.Wilhelm also discusses the evolution of Confucianism as a philosophy and religion, tracing its development from the time of Confucius to the present day. He explores the various schools of Confucian thought, as well as the impact that Confucianism has had on Chinese culture and society.Throughout the book, Wilhelm draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Confucian texts, historical accounts, and philosophical treatises. He also provides his own insights and interpretations, making the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Chinese history, philosophy, or culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
