Confucian exegesis
Last night, I helped
monshu decipher some seals. There's a particular vendor on eBay who offers a lot interesting ones at reasonable prices. Unfortunately, his translations are often...idiosyncratic. In fact, if he didn't provide Pinyin transcriptions, we'd often have no chance of deciphering the characters. I think his translation of the following phrase was "The scholar knows the truth".
