The Texts of Taoism is a comprehensive collection of three important Taoist texts: The Tao Te Ching, The Writings of Chuang-Tzu, and The Thai-Shang. These texts are considered some of the most influential and profound works in Chinese philosophy, and have been studied and revered for centuries. The Tao Te Ching, written by the legendary philosopher Lao Tzu, is a concise and poetic work that explores the nature of the Tao, or the Way, and how it can be applied to everyday life. It is considered one of the foundational texts of Taoism, and has been translated into countless languages around the world. The Writings of Chuang-Tzu, attributed to the philosopher Chuang-Tzu, is a collection of stories and parables that illustrate the principles of Taoism in a more playful and imaginative way. These stories often involve fantastical creatures and situations, and are meant to challenge the reader's assumptions about reality and the nature of existence. The Thai-Shang, or Tractate of Actions and Their Retributions, is a text that focuses on the concept of karma and the consequences of one's actions. It explores the idea that everything we do has a ripple effect on the world around us, and that our actions will ultimately determine our fate. This edition of The Texts of Taoism is translated by James Legge, a renowned scholar of Chinese philosophy and religion. Legge's translation is widely considered to be one of the most accurate and accessible versions of these texts in English, and is an essential resource for anyone interested in Taoism or Chinese philosophy more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
