"The Sage? The Teacher of All Ages?
Sitting in the apricot altar, discoursing face-to-face with his disciples; standing in the palace, speaking eloquently before the sovereign; perched atop mountains and rivers, gazing upon the flowing waters, pondering the true meaning of life.
Who is this Confucius who appears everywhere? Where is the real Confucius?
The Analects, which records the words and deeds of Confucius, objectively reflects his thoughts and personal charisma-between the lines, in the dialogues with his disciples.
In his book Confucius in the Analects, Professor Yang returns to the text itself, uncovering clues from Confucius' own words and actions. Through vivid and incisive analysis, he reveals Confucius' way of engaging with the world and his choices in times of adversity. He brings this sage and philosopher down from the altar, restoring him to a flesh-and-blood human being-one filled with genuine concern for the world and endowed with keen insight. In an age of collapsing rites and decaying music, amid tumultuous chaos, Confucius never wavered in his ideals, always caring for the inalienable dignity and well-being of every individual. Grounded in reality, he looked toward the future with the whole world in his heart. Unbowed by adversity, he wove humanistic concern into the fabric of social order, striving to restore the moral foundation of society through the revival of ritual and music.
圣人？万世师表？
在杏坛面对弟子坐而论道。在宫殿面向国君侃侃而谈。站在山川之上，面向流逝的河水，追寻生命的真谛。
无处不在的孔子是谁？真实的孔子在哪？
记载着孔子言行的《论语》，在字里行间，在与弟子的对话中，都能客观地反映出孔子的思想和人格魅力。
在《〈论语〉中的孔子》一书中，杨教授回到《论语》本身，从孔子的言行中挖掘线索，通过生动深入的分析，揭示孔子为人处世的方式和他在困境中的抉择，将这位智者、哲人从神龛中请下来，将他还原成一位有血有肉的、充满现实关怀与敏锐洞察的真实的人--他在礼坏乐崩的滔滔乱世，始终坚守自己的理想，去关注个体不可剥夺的尊严和福祉。他立足现实，思考未来，胸怀天下，不因困境改变心志，将人文关怀融入社会秩序的建构，致力于通过恢复礼乐制度来重建纲常。
