Confucius (551-479 BC) was a Chinese philosopher, one of the world's greatest thinkers, whose teachings had a profound impact on the civilisation of China and East Asia. He made his first steps in adult life in the field of education, and it was here that he became famous. In China, Confucius is called the teacher of ten thousand generations, and his views on upbringing and education are still relevant today. It is thanks to his students that not only legends about Confucius have survived, as with many prominent personalities of antiquity, but also many facts about his life and philosophical heritage, including the sayings and conversations published in this edition.
