Publisher's Synopsis

Musings Of A Chinese Mystic: Selections From The Philosophy Of Chuang Tzu (1906) is a collection of writings by the Chinese philosopher Chuang Tzu, translated into English by Lionel Giles. The book contains a selection of Chuang Tzu's philosophical musings on a variety of topics, including the nature of reality, the meaning of life, and the role of the individual in society. The writings are presented in a poetic and often enigmatic style, reflecting Chuang Tzu's belief in the importance of intuition and spontaneity in understanding the world. The book is considered a classic of Chinese philosophy and has been influential in Western philosophy as well. It provides a unique insight into the thought of one of China's most important philosophers and offers a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual and spiritual world of ancient China.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
