  • The Analects of Confucius

    Arthur Waley, The Arthur Waley Estate et al.BOOKAnalects of Confucius2012

    First published in 1938.Previous translations of the Analects of Confucius are based upon a medieval interpretation which reflects the philosophy of the 12th century A.D rather than of the 5th century B.C., when Confucius lived. This book detaches the Analects from the Scholastic interpretation and lets these famous sayings speak for themselves.

  • Three Ways of Thought in Ancient China

    The Arthur Waley Estate, Arthur WaleyBOOKThree Ways of Thought in Ancient…2012

    First published in 1939. This book consists chiefly of extracts from Chuang Tzu, Mencius and Han Fei Tzu. Chuang Tzu's appeal is to the imagination; the appeal of mencius is to the moral feelings; realism, as expounded by Han Fei Tzu, finds a close parallel in modern Totalitarianism and as a result these extracts from a book of the third century B.C. nonetheless have a very contemporary connection

Although the find was made long ago, only two or three of these pieces had been translated before. Arthur Waley here translates, whole or as extracts, twenty-…

Until this was published in 1937 it had not been translated into English since the middle of nineteenth century, when sinology was still in its infancy.

  • The Secret History of the Mongols

    Arthur WaleyBOOKSecret History of the Mongols2005

    First published in 1963. The Secret History (so called merely because it was meant for the Mongols and not for the Chinese,) has been chiefly studied from a learned point of view and its quality as literature and hence its value to the lay reader have been greatly overlooked. The Chinese version has been used, but with constant reference to the Mon

The Chinese version has been used, but with constant reference to the Mongol text. The parts selected (founded on story-tellers' tales) date from the middle of the thirteent…
