The definitive contemporary English version of Lao Tzu's influential spiritual text, masterfully translated for modern audiences by an expert on Chinese poetry and philosophy
Like all of his translations, Hinton's translation of the Tao Te Ching is mindopening, presenting startling new dimensions in this widelyinfluential text. He shows how Lao Tzu's spirituality is structured around the generative lifeforce, for example, and that this system of thought weaves the human into natural process at the deepest levels of being, thereby revealing the Tao Te Ching as an originary text in deep feminist and ecological thought.
Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching is not only the single most important text ever composed in China, it is probably the most influential spiritual text in human history. In the past, virtually all translations of this text have been produced either by sinologists having little poetic facility in English, or writers having no ability to read the original Chinese. Hinton's fluency in ancient Chinese and his acclaimed poetic ability provide him the essential qualifications. Together, they allow a breathtaking new translation that reveals how remarkably current and even innovative this text is after 2500 years.
