Step back into the Court of Liang around 300 B.C., where philosophers were honored guests of the reigning king, enjoying lodging and sustenance as they pursued truth and wisdom. While the origins of Yang Chu remain a mystery, his choice to settle in the Wei State during King Hwei’s reign is well noted. Here, he lived as a modest proprietor until his death around 250 B.C. Imagine a life reminiscent of Epicurus in his renowned Athenian Garden, where the philosopher of pleasure and contentment welcomed students and disciples for enlightening discourses. These discussions, much like those in Athens at the same time, were immortalized by his devoted pupil, Meng-sun-Yang, giving us the precious fragment of Yang Chus teachings that allow us to grasp the essence of his philosophy. - (from the Introduction by Hugh Cranmer-Byng)Copyright Politics, Philosophy, Religion 世界 哲学 社会科学 科学
