Publisher's Synopsis

Musings Of A Chinese Mystic: Selections From The Philosophy Of Chuang Tzu (1906) is a collection of writings by the ancient Chinese philosopher, Chuang Tzu. This book was translated and compiled by Herbert A. Giles, a British diplomat and sinologist. The book includes a selection of Chuang Tzu's philosophical musings, which explore the nature of reality, the purpose of life, and the relationship between humans and the natural world. Chuang Tzu's ideas are presented in a poetic and metaphorical style, and the book includes commentary by Giles to help readers understand the context and meaning of the philosopher's words. Musings Of A Chinese Mystic is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of China's most important philosophical thinkers, and it continues to be widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
