    Kung Fu-tzu

    A Philosopher

    • Kung Fu-tzu

    Confucist

    Chinese

    [6th-5th Century BC]

    Kung Fu-Tzu is synonamous with the Confucius School of Thought (duh!), and his teachings are found in the Lun Yu or Analects. Of course, this book is a recording of a collection of sayings and conversations with Kung and his disciples.

    Here are a list of his most salient ideas:

  • Jen (goodness)

  • Yung (bravery)

  • Li (rites)

  • Yi (duty)

  • Shu (consideration)

  • Chung (loyalty)
