Ask HN: How should I start learning the teachings of Confucius?

2 points by combataircraft 13 years ago · 1 comment · 1 min read


I checked out some books in Amazon but couldn't find any good one that I can read on Kindle. Readers usually complain about bad translations.

This one seems good but not available for Kindle; http://www.amazon.com/Analects-Oxford-Worlds-Classics/dp/0199540616/ref=la_B000AQ07U2_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1361399481&sr=1-2

Do you have any recommendation? Are his books under copyrights? Isn't there any nice free website with good reading experience?

I don't know why you're trying to buy Confucius' books -- they're online and free, in multiple formats:

http://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/c/confucius/index.html

http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/book/search?amod...

http://manybooks.net/titles/confuciuetext02cnfcs10.html

http://www.classicly.com/read-the-analects-of-confucius-onli...

and many more ...
