Product Description:
---------------------------------
The Great Learning (simplified Chinese: 大学; traditional Chinese: 大學; pinyin: Dà Xué) was one of the "Four Books" in Confucianism. The "Four Books" were selected by the neo-Confucian, Zhu Xi (Chu Hsi) during the Song Dynasty as a foundational introduction to Confucianism and examinations for the state civil service in China. His commentary of the book provided additional support to Confucius' ideals.
The Great Learning had come from a chapter in the Classic of Rites, also known as the Li Chi or the Li Ji, which formed one of the 5 classics.
The Great Learning consists of a short main text attributed to the teachings of Confucius and then ten commentary chapters accredited to one of Confucius' disciples, Zeng Zi. The ideals of the book were Confucius's; however the text was written after his death.
