Description
The Daodejing, a foundational text of Taoist thought, is reimagined in this groundbreaking new edition. Brook Ziporyn's translation and interpretation offer a radical reinterpretation of the central text, revealing its electrifying strangeness and unsettling philosophical implications.
Long regarded for its calming wisdom, the Daodejing is instead revealed as "philosophical dynamite" - a work that challenges conventional understanding. With careful study of recent archaeological discoveries and a lifetime of research, Ziporyn brings a fresh perspective to this ancient text.
This pathbreaking edition will forever change how the Daodejing is read and understood in the West. A must-have for anyone interested in Eastern philosophy or seeking a new understanding of this influential work.
