Laurent Vogel (This file was produced from images generously made available by the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF/Gallica)) "Le roman de Confucius" by Maurice Magre is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life of Confucius, one of ancient China's most revered sages, and delves into the cultural and philosophical landscape of his time. Through narrative storytelling, it seeks to illuminate the wisdom and teachings associated with Confucius, introducing key figures like Lao-Tseu alongside him. At the start of the narrative, the life of Confucius begins as he is born into humble circumstances, with his guardian, Tchang, taking a significant role in his early upbringing. The story sets a tone of reverence for the ancient Chinese tradition, as Tchang recounts tales of Confucius’s early wisdom and character traits, which become foundational to his later teachings. The narrative foreshadows the dual philosophical paths represented by Confucius and Lao-Tseu, illustrating the dichotomy between societal duty and personal enlightenment, while also introducing secondary characters such as Prunier-Oreille and Mong-Pi, whose lives intersect with that of Confucius, hinting at the complex relationships and cultural dynamics of the era.
