前言
Lao Zi(c.58cI-500 B.C.)and Confucius(55l-479 B.C.)have traditionally been regarded as the two most celebrated thinkersin the history of Chinese philosophy. The former is considered the founder 0f Daoism(i.e.Taoism),and is studied worldwide。mostly by scholars,whereas the latter,the founder of Confuelan-ism.is venerated by people of all walks Of life and all over theworld. As has been observed by both oriental and occidentalreaders(including Hegel).the ideas of Lao Zi tend to be more philosophical in the pure sense of this term when compared with those of Confucius. It is commonly acknowledged that La0 Zi’sphilosophizing underlies the structure or formation of the over all psychology of the Chinese people.
內(nèi)容概要
Dao De Jing (The Book of Lao Zi)is windely read add celebrated as a Daoist classic.It is fyll form and literally presented in 81 chapters,the texts as a whole turn our to be suggestive, im- plicit and somewhat obscure in meaning; hence they are often found insoring to venture through with responses of appreciation, but not easy to digest the key arguments in questi0n, especially so in the case of general readers today. In order to facilitate a more fruitful reading of the classic,a new approach is therefore recommended with due consideration of the reading habit in genera,New Investigation. This study proiect is noticeably characterized by.a thematic rearrangement of the-81 chapters along with elaborate annotations and relevant commentary. They are offered as a resultof contextual analysis and absorptive incorpora- tion with some of the recent findings by Lao :Zi scholars. All this is intended to help one obtaincertain insights into the highlights of early Daoismas a philosophy. In addition to that, one may feel reasonably convenient and flexible to-select ac-cording to one's own interest any of the themes ortopics available in the table of contents concerned,and then focus on it for spiritual nourishment,for example. All in all ' the work reveals a trong initiative to make Dao De Jing more accessible and intelligible to the readers, of all kinds.

章節(jié)摘錄
Incidentally, Wu (Being-without-form) and You (Being-within-form) are two aspects contained in the Dao.
