Features: The book here is something you must read at least once in your lifetime, whether you are ten, thirty, or seventy years old! A minimalist reading list of Chinese culture. From the vast collection of ancient classics, sixty works of classics are selected for the first time in a relaxed and easy-to-read format, fully presenting the style and appearance of Chinese five thousand years of culture. Renowned scholars in Taiwan review the classics with the perspective of the 21st century, traversing time and space, guiding you into the "unfenced museum of Chinese culture." The Treasury of Chinese Classics Through the Ages also includes the original texts or essential excerpts of the classics, not only emphasizing the indispensability of the original texts but also leading thoughtful readers to progress step by step from easy to deep.
Zhuangzi is the wisdom of nature. Zhuangzi believed that humans must realize that their existence is organically connected to the natural world in the infinite space and time. Humans must observe everything through nature. In other words, people should not draw themselves from others, nor draw humans from nature, nor draw value from the worthless, nor draw the present from the past and future, nor draw life from death, nor draw the finite from the infinite. Only in this way can one transcend constraints and achieve freedom. This is where Zhuangzi's philosophy differs from the other pre-Qin philosophers.
