Konfucius samtal
Torbjörn Lodén
Konfucius samtal betraktas som det mest inflytelserika verket i Kinas historia. Trots att Konfucius levde för 2 500 år sedan är han än idag flitigt citerad och hans lära både brukas och missbrukas. Torbjörn Lodén har varsamt översatt Konfucius visdomsord och leder läsaren in i hans värld. Han tecknar en bild av Konfucius liv, av hans tid och av konfucianismens viktigaste drag. Här berörs också de ideologiska roller som Konfucius spelat och spelar i Kina. Konfucius samtal bjuder på en livsfilosofi som är oupphörligt fascinerande och evigt aktuell.
