Translation for "self educated man" to spanish
Self educated man
Translation examples
He used the imagery of a working man, comparing Heaven’s organization of the world to the compasses and L-square of the wheelwright and the carpenter, who employed these instruments “to measure the round and the square throughout the world.”54 Unlike the graceful style of the Analects, Mozi’s prose was somewhat humorless and ponderous, suggesting that he may have been a self-educated man who took up the pen with difficulty.55 Despite his impressive grasp of tradition, a residual awkwardness of style indicates that Mozi was not wholly at ease with the high culture of the nobility.
Usaba toda la imaginería de un hombre trabajador, comparando la organización del mundo con los compases y escuadras del carretero y el carpintero, que empleaban esos instrumentos «para medir la circunferencia y el cuadro en todo el mundo»[54]. A diferencia del estilo amable de las Analectas, la prosa de Mozi es un poco carente de humor y algo pesada, cosa que nos hace pensar que quizá fue un hombre autodidacta y que tomó la pluma con dificultades[55]. A pesar de su impresionante conocimiento de la tradición, una cierta torpeza de estilo indica que Mozi no se hallaba totalmente a gusto con la alta cultura de la nobleza.
