Reviews

Lu Zhao’s pluralistic understanding of Confucius not only reveals the complexity of Chinese cultural history, but also the popularity of Confucius in various sectors of Chinese society. * Tze-ki Hon, Beijing Normal University, China * Iconoclasm abounds in this survey of representations of Confucius that depart from his familiar role as wise old philosopher. Was he a failed counselor? Or ghostbuster? Or a master of arcana? By showing us the range of non-standard representations of Confucius, Zhao Lu makes us question the standard ones, and how they became standard in the first place. * Paul R. Goldin, Professor of Chinese Thought, University of Pennsylvania, USA *
