Laozi: DAO de Jing, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Taken as a whole, Moss Roberts's version of the Dao De Jing captures the sense of the original, and it is convincingly poetic in its texture, rhythms, and rhymes."--Journal of Chinese Philosophy

"Roberts's is an outstanding translation because he has so skillfully employed the English language to convey successfully the poetic quality of the Dao De Jing . By faithfully following the structure of the original, Roberts provides non-Chinese readers an opportunity to experience the beauty of form of this canonical work."--Philosophy East & West

"Roberts's renditions are often refreshing; he displays a fidelity to the poetic qualities of the original and at his best translates with an earthy literalness, which is the very antithesis of the esoteric imaginings of popular paraphrasers."--Journal of Religious History
