This edition goes beyond others that largely leave readers to their own devices in understanding this cryptic work, by providing an entre into the text that parallels the traditional Chinese way of approaching it: alongside Slingerlands exquisite rendering of the work are his translations of a selection of classic Chinese commentaries that shed light on difficult passages, provide historical and cultural context, and invite the reader to ponder a range of interpretations. The ideal student edition, this volume also includes a general introduction, notes, multiple appendicesincluding a glossary of technical terms, references to modern Western scholarship that point the way for further study, and an annotated bibliography.

Customer ReviewsA New Translation with Traditional Commentary
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :1
Slingerlands translation of Confucius Analects is a helpful addition to the current literature on the subject. Destined to be used for college student, Slingerland gathers a number of traditional commentaries on each translated verse as well as giving a helpful glossary of Chinese terms and names of person referred in the text. While I personally would prefer D.C. Laus translation, Slingerlands prose is quite good and less cumbersome than Ames and Rogermonts philosophical translation. This is a helpful introduction to Confucian thought for English-language reader.

None of these reviews relate to the Slingerland edition of Analects, which is the best around.
