	Four Books - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Four Books of Confucianism (not to be confused with the Four Classics of Chinese literature) are Chinese classic texts that Zhu Xi selected, in the Song dynasty, as an introduction to Confucianism: the Great Learning, the Doctrine of the Mean, the Analects of Confucius, and the Mencius.
		The purpose of this small, 23-chapter book is to demonstrate the usefulness of a golden way to gain perfect virtue.
		The imperial examination, started in the Jin Dynasty and eventually abolished with the founding of the Republic of China, emphasized Confucian studies and expected candidates to quote and apply the words of Confucius in their essays.

	Four Books for Women
		The Four Books for Women (2) were four types of educational material for women in Chinese feudal society -- the Admonitions for Women, the Women's Analects, the Domestic Lessons, and the Sketch of a Model for Women.
		The Four Books for Women were specialized writings on the education of women; their objective lay in expounding the proper behavior for the female sex, the "three submissions" and the "four virtues" promoted by the Confucian school, in order to promote the "wise and worthy wives and good mothers" character model of feudal ideology.
		These four spiritual bonds act as an extreme form of discrimination against and oppression of women without regard for their characters, stripping their thoughts and lives of autonomy and freedom, obliging them to follow the dictates of fate and the orders of parents and husband in everything.

		In this short, punchy book, Hentoff introduces readers to ominously named law enforcement techniques such as "Carnivore" and "Magic Lantern." He scores nearly every aspect in the "war on terror," from the "assassination" of suspected al Qaeda operatives in Yemen to the use of military tribunals to the Patriot Act.
		The book is a call to arms for citizens to fight back and defend their liberties.
		The book is a hodgepodge of ideas: a multilateralist polemic against the Bush administration, a realist critique of foreign policy idealism and a partial rehash of Barber's earlier work Jihad vs. McWorld.

	The Four Books on Architecture (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Palladio was not the first to publish a book illustrating principles of classical architecture but he was the most convincing.
		Robert Tavernor and Richard Schofield's well written, carefully annotated scholarly, 1997 translation of Palladio's Four Books --the first new English translation since 1738-- from MIT Press is a pleasure to read for what it reveals much about both great principles and fine detail of classical design and construction practices.
		The book's designers have really done brilliantly in finding the most suitable typefaces to match Palladio's original woodcuts and in choosing a size and format, down to the weight and colour of the paper, that makes these ideas handsome and vivid now.

		Hence the first twenty-four chapters are generally attributed to him; and as he had anointed both Saul and David to be kings over Israel, these two first books, which narrate the history of their reigns, may seem a continuation of the record begun by Samuel.

	Confucian Documents
		Although three of four of these books are traditionally attributed to Confucius (K'ung-tzu, 551-479 B.C.E.) it has been established that he did not write a single word of them; they were written down by his students after his death.
		These works were put into their present form by Chu Hsi in the late twelfth century C.E. These four books were required reading in order to pass the civil service exminations, (started in 1315), which were the gateway to employment in the Imperial bureaucracy.
		The second book in the Confucian canon, the Meng-tzu, is named after its author, also known as Meng K'o or Mencius (371-289 B.C.E.).

	On Christian Doctrine, in Four Books (all)
		If, however, he shall find that some books are held by the greater number of churches, and others by the churches of greater authority (though this is not a very likely thing to happen), I think that in such a case the authority on the two sides is to be looked upon as equal.
		For two books, one called Wisdom and the other Ecclesiasticus, are ascribed to Solomon from a certain resemblance of style, but the most likely opinion is that they were written by Jesus the son of Sirach.

		In the second book, I made a mistake as to the authorship of the book commonly called the Wisdom of Solomon.
		For I have since learnt that it is not a well-established fact, as I said it was, that Jesus the son of Sirach, who wrote the book of Ecclesiasticus, wrote this book also: on the contrary, I have ascertained that it is altogether more probable that he was not the author of this book.
