This carefully crafted ebook: ‘The Great Learning (A short Confucian text + Commentary by Tsang)’ is formatted for your e Reader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Great Learning was one of the ‘Four Books’ in Confucianism. The Great Learning had come from a chapter in the Classic of Rites which formed one of the Five Classics. It consists of a short main text attributed to the teachings of Confucius and then ten commentary chapters accredited to one of Confucius’ disciples, Zengzi. The ideals of the book were supposedly Confucius’s; however the text was written after his death. The ‘Four Books’ were selected by the neo-Confucian Zhu Xi during the Song Dynasty as a foundational introduction to Confucianism and examinations for the state civil service in China. Confucius (551–479 BC) was a Chinese teacher, editor, politician, and philosopher of the Spring and Autumn period of Chinese history.
