It was written during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and was recorded and compiled by Confucius's students and his students who republished it. It involves many aspects such as philosophy, politics, economics, education, literature and art, etc. It is very rich in content and is the most important classic of Confucianism.

Reader comments
I particularly like the sections on academics, etiquette, and moral cultivation. I feel like I can learn a lot about how to behave in the world. But I kind of hate that disciple named Jaeyu. He sleeps in the middle of the day and really disrespects the teacher! My favorite plot is that Confucius and his disciples traveled around the country. Although they encountered many difficulties along the way, they still insisted on spreading their ideas. This spirit is so admirable! The language of this book is also very vivid, and it is not boring at all. I recommend you to read it!
