Abstract:
Many of the book's fragments are assumed to represent the Master's teachings, handed down accurately by his disciples. Other parts of the text may be apocryphal. Regardless, the Analects represents, as a matter of historical fact, the fundamental body of thought that has shaped Chinese civilization for more than two thousand years. It may easily be argued that these texts have had a deeper impact on more people's lives over a longer period of time than any other book in human history.
