Abstract
The Mencius is a collection of statements and discussions attributed to the early Chinese thinker, Mencius (c. 380 - c. 300 BCE). Mencius is often considered the first major thinker to elaborate the ideas of Confucius, who lived about two centuries earlier. This scholarly translation is intended for both specialists and general readers. It primarily aims to elucidate the intellectual significance of individual passages and to highlight the way philosophical themes interact within the text. It is intended to provide open-access online materials, to be freely used or modified by individuals or by teachers employing them in a not-for-profit context.
