Synopsis

Part of the Norton Library series

The Norton Library edition of the Daodejing features Brook Ziporyn’s acclaimed translation of the Taoist classic. Ziporyn’s thought-provoking introduction explores the text’s historical influence and philosophical significance, while targeted endnotes provide the context modern readers need to engage with one of the world’s foundational works of wisdom literature.

The Norton Library is a growing collection of high-quality texts and translations—influential works of literature and philosophy—introduced and edited by leading scholars. Each edition is designed to prepare readers for their first encounter with works they will return to throughout their lives.

• Inviting introductions highlight each work’s significance and influence, providing the historical and literary context students need to begin reading with confidence.
• Endnotes and a clean, reader-friendly design create an uninterrupted reading experience, encouraging students to engage with the text first and consult notes as needed.
• An affordable price point (most editions are $10 or less) makes it easier for students to purchase the assigned edition and bring it to class.
