The Analects of Confucius, this is roughly turned over. I saw the translation of Yang Bojun's version. I think this book is very useful and has a detailed and accurate understanding of individual words and sentences. It's still a good reader for me who just started. Considering some current problems, many new contents can be derived. It is really an absolute classic in Confucian works, and it is a must-read. Hehe, I have read Yu Dan's, and it feels ok, but she is more of a sentiment than a text, so I suggest reading Yang Bojun's version. The feeling of growing up feels good after reading this single program.

Mencius, I haven't seen it completely. I only skimmed some chapters when I was studying ancient literary theory and writing papers, and his idea of cultivating noble spirit was quite agreeable. In addition, Mencius' style of writing is also majestic, and I like it very much.

Xunzi, it can be said, has never read it, but only got a general understanding when studying ancient documents. But it is also limited to the author and the main idea. For Confucian classics, I think it's better to read Confucius and Mencius first, so I'm not going to read them for the time being.

I'm sorry that I haven't read "University" and "The Doctrine of the Mean", so I can't talk about anything. Personally, I may feel a little bored.

I read a little bit of Zhouyi and found it difficult to understand. I found some annotated books to read, but my tutor said that this book is suitable for middle-aged and elderly people and is the greatest work, because it has a concept of "change", which can explain many lives, all-encompassing and profound. But you are too young to really understand without much life experience.

I have read the Tao Te Ching before, because each one is not very long. At that time, I set myself the task of reading a few articles and reciting a few articles every day. Later, I didn't insist, so I said with shame. This is also a good book. I think some thoughts have some influence on the way of thinking.

Zhuangzi is highly recommended because of its beautiful writing, interesting story and admirable implication. For Zhuangzi, I can only admire his immortal spirit, and you have to admire those ingenious pens. I think a person with unique thinking will like Zhuangzi very much. He is so "genius".

Han Feizi didn't read it because he was not very interested in legalism and only knew some famous articles. I saw the Daqin Empire some time ago and thought it was good. I just want to look for a copy of Han Feizi to browse.

Sun Tzu's Art of War has always thought that the Art of War only teaches people some deviant and sinister tricks, so he disdains to read it. Later, I learned that this book and the Three Kingdoms were very popular with the Japanese, but all the things of our ancestors were kept by others for their own use. I think it should have its unique value. Maybe I shouldn't confine myself to some ideas, nor should I stay on the understanding of the superficial words of this book. I think it's important to combine practical thinking when reading this book. I feel that its wisdom is a kind of thinking, not just a "technique", which is very useful for the present work.

I have never seen guiguzi.

This is a classic and one of my favorite books. I think anyone who is interested in Buddhism and philosophy will read it. The idea of "Zen" is very enlightening. I think it makes me pay more attention to my heart and consciousness and shift my attention from the outside to the inside. I think everyone has been exposed to this book. Many famous philosophical stories we know come from this book. Reading more is very helpful to broaden our thinking.

I've been looking for a good version of "The Book of Immortality" on the Internet for a long time, but it's all superficial knowledge related to current business and work, and I think it's vulgar.

Personally, I like this kind of books with aphorisms and aphorisms very much, as well as Night Talk Around the Furnace, You Ji in the Small Window, Nightmare Shadow and so on. I think some essays in the Ming and Qing Dynasties contain a lot of attitudes towards life, and some very incisive metaphors are full of praise after aftertaste. I remember that the motto of middle school is "chew vegetable roots and do great things", which is a great thing. I can still think of many famous sayings in the book from time to time. When I encounter some things I need to face, some doubts and some temptations, a sentence in these books will first come to my mind, and then I will calm down and really look at question I rationally from my needs and pursuits, and many will be relieved. I think these books are similar to Suzhou gardens and traditional calligraphy and painting, and they are the epitome of China literati thought.

I think you want to read books on Chinese studies, so the key to starting with these classics is to have your own feelings, not limited to others' understanding, and in my opinion, these books have an ultimate goal, that is, to internalize their own connotation and really absorb it, not limited to a few books I have read. I think what you read is meaningless without internal improvement.

If you want to study Chinese studies in a more comprehensive way, it is suggested to start with the thirteen classics, namely, The Book of Changes, The Book of Songs, The Book of Rites, Zuo Zhuan in the Spring and Autumn Period, Biography of the Spring and Autumn Ram, Liang Zhuan in the Spring and Autumn Period, The Analects of Confucius, The Book of Filial Piety and Erya. These are all classic books. Of course, you are involved in a lot, but you focus on philosophy. I think you should also cover some aspects in history, primary school and literature, which is more comprehensive. History includes Zuo Zhuan, Shi Ji and Zi Tong Zhi Jian, while primary schools are divided into phonology, exegesis and writing. Shuo Wen Jie Zi (Duan Yucai's Annotation) and Er Ya certainly have some complicated phonology, so we don't need to deal with them. Literary categories such as the Book of Songs, Songs of Chu, Yuefu, Tang Poetry, Song Poetry, etc. It is also the best reading.

In addition, reading ancient Chinese books should be combined with some contemporary translations, such as The Analects of Confucius, Yang Bojun's comments on Mencius, Zhu Kanji's comments on Laozi and Cheng Junying's comments on the Book of Songs. Remember to read the version published by Zhonghua Book Company or Commercial Press and the Shanghai ancient books. This is the best version for researchers, and there will be no mistakes. Other publishing houses are hard to say.

You can also look at the research works of some masters of Chinese studies, such as Zhang Taiyan, Huang Kan, Liang Qichao, Qian Mu, Qian Zhongshu, Tang, Hu Shi, Wang Guowei, Chen Yinque, Feng Youlan, Ji Xianlin and so on.

In this way, these can be read easily for almost a lifetime, let alone others, so read them well.
