A masterpiece that objectively and easily explains in modern Korean the "Book of Conduct" (records of the words and deeds of Confucius recorded by the 2nd to 5th disciples who seized the initiative in factional struggles), which contains the wisdom of life of the ruling class of ancient China (a period of social upheaval where the order of lineage and patriarchy collapsed)—a philosophy sublimated into an immortal ideology by establishing the orthodox lineage of Confucianism in an effort by Song
Jo Myung-hwa: Commentary on the Analects 2
Because the *Analects* is written in Chinese characters that are difficult to clearly convey meaning, countless commentaries have been produced; however, *Analects Translation and Critique* compiles authoritative commentaries from across history to provide the most rational commentary on the *Analects*. Furthermore, while many existing translations rely on traditional archaic language that often makes it difficult to grasp the meaning, this book has strived to translate it correctly into modern Korean that contemporary Koreans can understand. Arbitrary interpretations were avoided in the commentary and translation, and modified sections or expressions of nuances not evident in the original text are distinguished by placing them in parentheses.
