Les proverbes sont une véritable sagesse populaire. Ils sont le fruit de centaines d'années d'histoires, de légendes, de spiritualité d'un peuple. Transmis oralement pendant des siècles, leur vérité et leur simplicité nous parlent immédiatement. Ces proverbes visent à donner accès à un peuple, une culture populaire, dans un format accessible à tous. Un proverbe est plus qu'une phrase anodine, ce peut être un trait d'esprit, un résumé d'une pensée complexe, une maxime, une ouverture sur une réflexion plus profonde.

The Most Venerable Book is one of the five classics. For many centuries it was a central work for anyone wishing to work for the imperial administration, with its prestige stemming from the belief that it had been assembled by Confucius himself. The first emperor tried to have all copies destroyed because of its subversive implication that 'the Mandate of Heaven' could be withdrawn from rulers who failed their people. For similar reasons it was also banned by Mao. Extraordinarily, it has been revived by the Chinese government of the 2010s.
