"The Analects (Lunyu) is one of the most influential texts in human history. As a putative record of Confucius’s (551–479 B.C.E.) teachings and a foundational text in scriptural Confucianism, this classic was instrumental in shaping intellectual traditions in China and East Asia until the early twentieth century. But no premodern reader read only the text of the Analects itself. Rather, the Analects was embedded in a web of interpretation that mediated its meaning. Modern interpreters of the Analects only rarely acknowledge this legacy of two thousand years of commentaries. How well do we understand prominent or key commentaries from this tradition? How often do we read such commentaries...

The book is a classic of wisdom compiled by Yu Lin, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty. It chooses famous characters and stories in Chinese history. The collection is as famous as Feng Menglong's The Think Tank. Because the stories collected are all ingenious schemes, it has been misunderstood as a bypass and imprisoned for a long time.

The book also chooses a large number of classical stories about self-cultivation, family unity, governing the country and peace of the world, especially elaborating on the strategy and experience of living in the world, which still has certain enlightening significance at present.
