À propos de cet audio

 Confucius knew all about life and told us how to behave, but we can't find out precisely what he was up to. His well-meaning platitudes, quaint maxims, and quasi-enigmatic anecdotes combined to produce an ideal philosophy for civil servants. It would appear that his aim was to turn his pupils into good government officials, but his teachings succeeded beyond his wildest expectations, providing rules of conduct and spiritual fodder for more than two thousand years.

In Confucius in 90 Minutes, Paul Strathern offers a concise, expert account of Confucius's life and ideas and explains their influence on man's struggle to understand his existence in the world. The book also includes selections from Confucius' work, a brief list of suggested readings for those who wish to delve deeper, and chronologies that place Confucius within his own age and in the broader scheme of philosophy.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Well-written, clear, and informed, they have a breezy wit about them. I find them hard to stop reading." (The New York Times)

Honestly that was one of the best summarization of who he was and what he contributed. Only an hour long

Quick and easy

Very good and short introduction to Confucius. Got me wanting to learn more and that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Good Listen

First, it’s Ren 仁, not “zhen”. If you want to write a summary of the most famous scholar and philosopher in china, at least get the pronounciation corrected. Second, boredom is what confucius was up to? Maybe read a bit more original books instead of generating strange and ignorant assumptions about other people’s work. Do not waste your time on this authors “xxx in 90 minutes”, unless all you want is some celebrity gossip junk

This is garbage
