The Analects9 chapters

“不学诗,无以言”“诗三百,一言以蔽之”。引到的篇名可直达《诗经》该篇。

  1. 1.15Poor without flattery

    子贡曰:贫而无谄,富而无骄,何如?子曰:可也。未若贫而乐,富而好礼者也。子贡曰:诗云:如切如磋,如琢如磨,其斯之谓与?子曰:赐也,始可与言诗已矣!告诸往而知来者。

    Acknowledge what has been done, then push one step further. Today: from renting to owning without bowing or showing off — Confucius would say “that will do”.

  2. 2.2Thoughts without crookedness

    子曰:诗三百,一言以蔽之,曰:思无邪。

    The “without crookedness” lies in the reader, not entirely in the poems. Today: a novel about a villain can still bring a reader round.

  3. 3.8The painting comes after the white ground

    子夏问曰:巧笑倩兮,美目盼兮,素以为绚兮。何谓也?子曰:绘事后素。曰:礼后乎?子曰:起予者商也!始可与言诗已矣。

    If the ground is not smooth, every colour you put on comes out blotchy.

  4. 7.17子所雅言not yet covered

    子所雅言:诗、书、执礼,皆雅言也。

  5. 8.3曾子有疾not yet covered

    曾子有疾,召门弟子曰:启予足!启予手!诗云战战兢兢,如临深渊,如履薄冰。而今而后,吾知免夫!小子!

  6. 8.8兴于诗not yet covered

    子曰:兴于诗,立于礼。成于乐。

  7. 13.5诵诗三百not yet covered

    子曰:诵诗三百,授之以政,不达;使于四方,不能专对;虽多,亦奚以为?

  8. 16.13陈亢问于伯鱼曰not yet covered

    陈亢问于伯鱼曰:子亦有异闻乎?对曰:未也。尝独立,鲤趋而过庭。曰:学诗乎?对曰:未也。不学诗,无以言。鲤退而学诗。他日又独立,鲤趋而过庭。曰:学礼乎?对曰:未也。不学礼,无以立。鲤退而学礼。闻斯二者。陈亢退而喜曰:问一得三,闻诗,闻礼,又闻君子之远其子也。

  9. 17.9小子not yet covered

    子曰:小子!何莫学夫诗?诗,可以兴,可以观,可以群,可以怨。迩之事父,远之事君。多识于鸟兽草木之名。
