- Synopsis
- Chuang Tzŭ belongs to a period three or four centuries before Christ. A disciple of Lao Tzŭ, his writings, which as a consequence are mostly allegorical, are an attempt to refute the materialistic Confucian teaching that arose after Lao Tzŭ's death. Although Chuang Tzŭ failed in his aims, he left a work of marvellous literary beauty and great originality. This classic translation makes Chuang Tzŭ available to English readers with the aid of a running commentary incorporated in the body of the text.
