The Analects of Confucius

A Collection of Sayings and Ideas Attributed to the Chinese Philosopher

The Chinese Classics

By Confucius

Translated by James Legge

During most of the Han period the Analects was not considered one of the principal texts of Confucianism. During the reign of Han Wudi (141-87 BC), when the Chinese government began promoting Confucian studies, only the Five Classics were considered by the government to be canonical (jing), considered so because Confucius was assumed to have partially written, edited, and/or transmitted them. The Analects was considered secondary as it was thought to be merely a collection of Confucius' oral commentary (zhuan) on the Five Classics.
