"This Book contains the counsels of wisdom and all the virtues." The forewords reveal a curious story of finding it in the East. The name of the creator of the book is shrouded in mystery: both Confucius and Chesterfield were named as authors.
Publisher Vasily Ruban created a magnificent hoax, confusing both readers and literary critics. The fascination with Confucianism and other Eastern teachings in Russia was the impetus for the creation of this elegant work. The mysterious origin, ornate and flowing syllable, "the power, simplicity and purity of the moral teaching that is everywhere visible in this ancient" text is the secret of the publication's popularity. In the "translation" into Russian, the collection of moral reflections is supplemented by arguments about the Christian law. The height of thoughts, the power of expressions and wit in the rules of the "Chinese Sage" will not leave indifferent the modern reader who aspires to "live well in society."
