Philosophy and Argumentation in Third-Century China: The Essays of Hsi K'Ang

by His K'Ang, Robert G Henricks, Robert G. Henricks, et al.

Book Overview

A valuable source of information on third-century Chinese argumentation and thought, the essays are eloquent, clear, and to the point; humorous at times; philosophically subtle; and psychologically perceptive. They treat matters of perennial concern--immortality, the nature of morality, the relation of music to emotion--and should be of interest to specialist and nonspecialist alike.
