   hypatian_kat to-read (61) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.   ) boermsea | Jan 22, 2024 |   ) Caroline_McElwee | Nov 29, 2023 | In her forward to "The Left Hand of Darkness" (1976) LeGuin writes: "The artist deals in what cannot be said in words. The artist whose medium is fiction does this in words." From that I infer that this [interpretation of the] text is the canonical Taoist foundation on which her speculative fiction rests, and perhaps that is one aspect which elevates hers above the pulp. ( ) quavmo | Oct 26, 2023 |  ) emmby | Oct 4, 2023 | Nothing in the world is as soft, as weak, as water; nothing else can wear away the hard, the strong, and remain unaltered. Soft overcomes hard, weak overcomes strong. Everybody knows it, nobody uses the knowledge. Maybe ...nobody uses the time... Of course, water hurries too.

No other English translation of this greatest of the Chinese classics can match Ursula Le Guin's striking new version. Le Guin, best known for thought-provoking science fiction novels that have helped to transform the genre, has studied the Tao Te Ching for more than forty years. She has consulted the literal translations and worked with Chinese scholars to develop a version that lets the ancient text speak in a fresh way to modern people, while remaining faithful to the poetic beauty of the work. Avoiding scholarly interpretations and esoteric Taoist insights, she has revealed the Tao Te Ching 's immediate relevance and power, its depth and refreshing humor, in a way that shows better than ever before why it has been so much loved for more than 2,500 years. Included are Le Guin's own personal commentary and notes on the text. This new version is sure to be welcomed by the many readers of the Tao Te Ching as well as those coming to the text for the first time. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
