    About this audiobook

    Confucius was a Chinese thinker and political leader who was considered as the apotheosis of Chinese sages. Confucius' theories and philosophy, commonly seen as one of the most essential and prominent individuals in human history, created the structure of East Asian civilization and civilization, and stay appropriate across China and East Asia today.


    Confucianism, his philosophical theories, highlighted personal and governmental morality, social connection precision, justice, generosity, and genuineness. Confucianism was instilled in Chinese civilization and way of living; for Confucians, daily life was a spiritual arena. Throughout the Hundred Schools of Thought age, his disciples contended efficiently with lots of other schools, only to be repressed in favor of the Legalists throughout the Qin dynasty. Confucius' ideas were formally approved in the new administration following Han's success over Chu after Qin's collapse. Confucianism developed into a system known in the West as Neo-Confucianism, and later as New Confucianism, at the time of the Tang and Tune dynasties.

    Today, we will learn more about this highly influential philosophy, the man who was the author and creator of it, and the consequences it has had on society and cultures across the world, in particular the Chinese culture.

      This audiobook has plenty of terrific material. Not that bad. As a matter of fact, I would practically say that it's fantastic. This was really worth my time. Lastly, a narrated book that delivers. One other detail: The narrator appeared to be so great that I would certainly listen to it in the future. And perhaps more than once. I simply cannot remember everything that's being said in these audio books, so it would be worth reminding myself of what was actually being mentioned.
