Obviously it's kind of ludicrous to "rate" the Tao Te Ching and I have no knowledge to rate Le Guin's translation so it's just a personal feeling about how much the chapters caught my imagination. I do appreciate the recurring themes but it does get quite repetitive with them and there were only a few that were put in a way that really grabbed me. I'm certain it's a me problem, hopefully one day I'll come back to it. Testo fondamentale del Taoismo, richiederebbe la conoscenza del cinese per essere apprezzato a pieno, dato le significative possibilità di interpretazione di ogni singolo capitolo. Lao-Tzu - a lui è attribuita senza certezze la composizione di questo testo - reagisce alla decadenza della società cinese in modo opposto da Confucio, ritirandosi dal mondo in favore di una vita di meditazione, parsimonia e tolleranza. Sosteneva l'importanza di un ritorno alle origini, alla madre, alla natura, disprezzando gli artifici degli uomini, il loro voler alterare le leggi della natura. Immagina che la gente torni a usare le cordicelle annodate; che trovi buono il proprio cibo, belle le proprie vesti, comode le proprie case, piacevoli i propri costumi.

"The most translated book in the world after the Bible, the Tao Te Ching, or "Book of the Way," is a guide to cultivating a life of peace, serenity, and compassion. Through aphorisms and parable, it leads readers toward the Tao, or the "Way": harmony with the life force of the universe. Traditionally attributed to Lao Tzu, a Chinese philosopher who was a contemporary of Confucius, it is the essential text of Taoism, one of the three great religions of ancient China. As one of the world's great works of wisdom literature, it still has much to teach us today, offering a practical model based on modesty and self-restraint for living a balanced existence and for opening your mind, freeing your thoughts, and attaining enlightenment and self-awareness. With its emphasis on calm, simplicity, purity, and non-action, it provides a time-tested refuge from the busyness of modern life. This new translation seeks to understand the Tao Te Ching as a guide to everyday living and encourages a slow, meditative reading experience. The Tao Te Ching's eighty-one brief chapters are accompanied by illuminating commentary, interpretation, poems, and testimonials by the likes of Margaret Mead, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Dr. Wayne W. Dyer. Specially commissioned calligraphy for more than two hundred Chinese characters illustrates the book's essential themes"-- Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

If you are interested in the nature of our ongoing experience of living, in the idea or illusion of causality, what it is to know something, or what it means to act wisely or not, then you will want to keep some version of this text close to hand. For me it is a text to return to periodically, to remind me of a way of thinking that is too easily covered over by everyday ways of thinking. ( )
