Agency and freedom express fundamental experiences that we have as humans in our conscious deeds and varied pursuits. The absence of terminological equivalents in pre-modern Chinese makes it challenging to explain Confucian views on these. I attempt to explain agency and freedom in Confucianism following a metaphor from its primary sources: the archer. A paradigm for moral agent, the metaphor discloses Confucian perspectives on purposeful activity and self-determination.
