Exploring the Analects

Elliott Bernstein

Exploring the Analects takes you passage by passage through the collected teachings of Confucius. Host Elliott Bernstein brings each quote to life with fresh translations, historical context, and insights for Chinese learners—all while showing how 2,500-year-old ideas still speak to how we live, communicate, and connect today. Whether you're a philosophy buff, a student of Mandarin, or just curious about one of history's most influential texts, this podcast makes the Analects accessible, engaging, and surprisingly relevant.
