Produktinformationen "A Few Contemporary Inspirations from some of the 'Selected Sayings' (Analects) of Confucius"
These are inspirations based on those Analects, or 'sayings' of Confucius of which they bear the number. I have used the translations by Arthur Waley. I have chosen only a few of those Analects that interested me from Books I to IV. There are XX books altogether, but sadly I soon ran out of inspiration - which does not imply that the rest are not worth reading. These pieces, as I present them here, are not translations or transcriptions but more or less what I would call transubstantiations. I do not mean: This is what the ancient Chinese sage or his disciples really said or meant but rather: This is how he might express his thought if he lived in the post modern or contemporary world, with access to what has become available in our time, not in terms of culture and civilization but of true knowledge, understanding and ethical spirit as I see it. Also, it makes little difference to me whether these sayings really stem from Confucius in person. What matters to me is the availability of substance.
