Features: "The Incompetent Man" is an important work in the history of Tang Dynasty thought. Its author, influenced by the Huangchao peasant uprising, fiercely denied the hierarchy between ruler and subject, condemned the sages, despised fame and fortune, and opposed the ethics of loyalty and filial piety. The annotators have made collations, punctuations, segmentations, and annotations to the original text.
