El Tao Te Ching se traduce como el Clásico de Caminos y virtudes. El libro, según dice la leyenda, fue escrito alrededor del año 700 a. C., y su autor es Laozi («Viejo Filósofo», «Anciano Maestro»), de quien se dice fuera un archivista de la corte imperial durante la dinastía Zhou. Sin embargo, la autenticidad de estos detalles es aún objeto de discusión. El Tao Te Ching describe una fuerza, llamada dao (Tao), que es el orden del mundo. En la antigua China, las disputas sobre el dao versaban sobre el mejor modo de alcanzar la armonía social. Se trata de un volumen breve con 81 capítulos que exponen la filosofía taoísta dirigida en dos sentidos. Uno es la transmisión de la idea de Tao y de la manera de obrar del «hombre santo o sabio» que la llega a conocer. Por otra parte, el Tao Te Ching aconseja a los gobernantes para regir de forma sabia. En China, la filosofía de la naturaleza y la visión del mundo están impregnadas del pensamiento taoísta, por ello, muchos artistas, pintores, calígrafos y hasta jardineros han usado este libro como fuente de inspiración.
"The Path of Virtue: The Illustrated Tao Te Ching" presents the classic Chinese text, as translated by James Legge, alongside elegant drawings, paintings and sculptures from the extensive collections of the Cleveland Museum of Art. This book is the next publication in "Abrams" series of illustrated spiritual and philosophical works, preceded by "The Book of Psalms" and "The Way of the Buddha".Composed in the 6th century BC by Lao-Tzu, a sage and recordkeeper in the Zhou court, the "Tao Te Ching" was originally the basis of Taoist philosophy, later adopted by Chinese Buddhists as a complement to their basic religious tenets. It has now come to be referred to as a political handbook for rulers, as well as a practical guide for daily life. Legge's rendering, presented here unabridged, is among the most poetic translations in English. Accompanied by artwork with Taoist themes and bound in a three-piece case with gilding and a ribbon, "The Path of Virtue" is a volume to be contemplated and admired.
