«Conversations and Judgments» of Confucius — a book without which it is difficult to understand Eastern ethics, management culture, and character development. It is the living voice of a thinker on how to become a worthy person.
You will find answers to questions:
- How to recognize people and to be worthy of trust yourself?
- Why should deeds precede words — and what distinguishes a noble man?
- How to govern by virtue, not by fear of punishments?
- Why is learning without reflection useless, while reflection without learning is dangerous?
- Why is respect for parents and elders the root of humanity?
This is not a collection of beautiful aphorisms, but a practical code of conduct tested over the centuries. This edition includes two classical Russian translations (V. P. Vasiliev and P. S. Popov) that allow one to see the semantic nuances. The book will be useful for students and teachers of the humanities, managers and educators, and for anyone seeking sustainable principles for personal life and management.
