Really I accept that they’re great because their works are still read by many people today. But I think I’d describe Confucius more as a teacher and thinker than a writer. He was a very wise man. What do you have to do for the discussion
Well, each of us reads a favourite book and writes a review for the discussion.

Mr Jackson:
Betty:
I see. We’re still influenced by Confucius’s ideas, and Shakespeare’s plays also make a lot of sense to us today. People have always read, and will always read great books. By the way, what do you think of Mark Twain, the great American writer in the nineteenth century
He was important, but I suppose he isn’t as well-know as Confucius or Shakespeare.
