UNDERGRADUATE'S SUICIDE
CONFUCIUS AS A MAN
A Chinese
Philosopher
"Master Kung." The Story of Confucius. By Carl Crow. (Hamish Bamilton. 12s. 6d. net)
In undertaking the task of presenting China's Sage as a more sympathetic figure than the "T- tellectual Frankenstein monster," revered as a deity by generations of iterati, Mr. Crow is, in effect, indicting the class from which china's "rulers have always been drawn, for having divested the Teacher's memory, of those lovable. human qualities which, during his lifetime, earned for him the re- spect of a few enlightened rulets and the devotion of many discl- ples. He makes it the purpose, of this breezily written blography to take him dowri from his marble pedestal of petrified worship and to restore himɑ to that warm spot In the world's esteem, to which he is entitled, not only because of his wisdóm, but as a "human scholar and gentleman." In so doing he makes no claira to any new dis- covertes concerning the main facts of the Master's chequered career. He has used no materials other than those provided by the Chin- ese historians and commentators, as translated in Legge's "Classics": he has merely selected and 'ar-
in ranged these
chronological order, so as to present a con- tinuons picture of the Sage against the moving background of the troublous times in which he lived. Mr. Crow never obtrudes his own personality upon his picture, but from internal evidence one may surmise that he has derived a good deal of quiet enjoyment from his task, and from the Master's social dilemmas.
It is not easy, at first sight, to reconcile certain aspects of the fe of Confucius with the deep rever- ence accorded to his memory by countless generations of earth's oldest civilisation. Compelled to earn a living, he obtained his first öffelal employment at the age of seventeen as tithe collector to his feudal chieftain, in which position he gained much valuable know- ledge of affairs. His experience during this formative period brought him into direct personal contact with the peasantry, gave him sympathy and insight, and "strengthened his half-formed re- solution to achieve their hap- piness," by restoring the benevo- lent despotism of the Golden Age -government of the Good, by the Good, for the Good. He died, fity-seven years later, a self-con- | fessed failure, ignored by contem- porary opinion in high places, and generally regarded as an unprac tical politician. Many incidenta in his career, and many of his sayings and doings, appear to be scarcely, consistent with the Or- thodox Confucianist conception of the Superior Man. The explana- tion would appear to lie in the fact that the basts of the Confucian
philosophy, and of the intuence which the Bage came to exercise on the minds of the literati, was Jald, after his death. by his devoted disciples who, in the "Analects," compiled from memory an account of the long Odyssey of his scholastic pilgrimages from one ducal Court to another in search of official employment. together with # record of his teachings.
