【Livraison directe de Chine】 Livres chinois : Chuan Xilu (édition annotée par Ye Shengtao)

The best read for understanding Wang Yangming's philosophy of the mind. Over 500 years old original manuscript; published by The Commercial Press 91 years ago; meticulously annotated and collated by Mr. Ye Shengtao 30 years ago, presented in its original form again! 'Chuan Xilu' is a collection of academic speeches and letters recorded by Wang Yangming's disciples. 'Chuan' means to be passed down from the teacher; 'Xi' means to practice what is passed down. The title comes from this. For someone like Wang Yangming who has influenced Chinese history and culture for hundreds of years, it is fortunate that his disciples 'narrated and created' his profound knowledge, allowing us in later generations to appreciate the essence of Yangming's philosophy of the mind. 'Chuan Xilu' is divided into three volumes: the upper volume was recorded by Xu Ai, Lu Cheng, and Xue Kan. The middle volume contains Wang Yangming's letters on academic discussions. The lower volume was recorded by several disciples and compiled by Qian Dehong. The 1927 edition of 'Chuan Xilu' published by The Commercial Press was very popular at the time, with a neat and complete manuscript. Later, Mr. Ye Shengtao personally collated and annotated 'Chuan Xilu', making it a widely recognized reference for future generations. This book is based on the manuscript edition of The Commercial Press, with Mr. Ye Shengtao's collation, and includes accurate and complete translations of the original text. It also comes with the rare 'Diagrams of Mr. Wang Yangming' and is carefully bound and typeset, making it a very valuable edition on the market!
