About the product The teachings of Confucius are the quintessence of human wisdom about the structure of society, which is based on morality, kindness, decency, respect and education, available to everyone who wants to become better — now in a trendy comic format. — How not to lose kindness in a rapidly changing world? — Why is the prosperity of the country directly related to respect for the elders and love for the younger? — What should be the relationship between superiors and subordinates? The artist Cai Zhizhong, whose hand-drawn versions of classical treatises have sold 40 million copies in over 20 languages, enjoys his work immensely. And generously shares the positive with the reader. Having smiled on some pages, the reader, in turn, can rest assured that every classic work illustrated by Tsai Zhizhong is a very serious work. The graphic novel in the Illustrated Library of Oriental Wisdom series is published for the first time in the translation of Bronislav Vinogrodsky, a well-known Russian Sinologist and popularizer of oriental knowledge. “For China, this text is the basis of the moral law that regulates absolutely all processes within the Chinese society. And here, of course, there is a lot to learn. Especially to those who claim to be leaders in our country ”. — Bronislav Vinogrodsky Annotation The book of Confucius «Reasoning in Sayings» and the story of his life are presented for the first time in the format of a graphic novel. This is the second book in the Illustrated Library of Oriental Wisdom series, designed to acquaint the widest circle of readers with classical treatises that still sound modern today. Unlike many depictions of Confucius, where he is shown as the author of platitudes, the artist Tsai Zhizhong has captured his playful, self-deprecating nature, which is especially evident when he has to deal with lazy students. In the translation of the project’s curator and translator, Sinologist Bronislav Vinogrodsky, the whole story becomes even more accurate, exciting and relevant.
