Here, contributors apply a variety of different methodologies (including philosophical, phililogical, and religious) and address a number of important topics, from Confucius and Western "virtue ethics" to Confucius' attitude toward women to the historical composition of the text of the Analects . Scholars will appreciate the rigor of these essays, while students and beginners will find them accessible and engaging.
