Editor and translator Edward Slingerland (Asian studies, U. of British Columbia) explains that the Analects is nothing like a philosophical treatise as recognized in the West, but rather a somewhat haphazardly collected and edited record of a process of teaching that Confucius conducted. Once the master was no longer around to augment the obscure bits, the tradition of commentary--now 2,000 years old-- began. Here he offers a concise version of his 2003 translation of the full text, which was also published by Hackett Publishing Co. It is not indexed.
