«Paroles de Confucius» is a selection of texts by Confucius edited by Cyrille J.-D. Javary, in hardback, published by Albin Michel (53 pages, French).
It gathers sayings and aphorisms of Confucian thought, a doctrine born in the 5th century BC that for two millennia has been the moral and social foundation of the Chinese elite. Confucius holds that true nobility lies in the heart, not in blood, and champions friendship, righteousness, humanism and courage as ways to increase harmony among people. The edition includes period engravings, landscapes and calligraphy.
It belongs to the «Carnets de Sagesse» collection from Albin Michel and was published in 2005. The cover reproduces Confucius's name in Chinese: 孔夫子.
For those seeking a brief introduction to Confucius's thought and Eastern wisdom.
