Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. The Zhouyi (), or Book of Changes, is one of the foundational works of Chinese civilization-a classic of divination, philosophy, cosmology, and moral reflection whose influence has endured for more than two millennia.Rooted in the intellectual and cultural traditions of ancient China, the Zhouyi explores the patterns of change governing nature and human affairs. Through images of heaven and earth, thunder and wind, mountains and rivers, it examines fortune and misfortune, action and restraint, leadership and responsibility, conflict and reconciliation. Its language is concise, often enigmatic, and rich with imagery that has inspired generations of scholars, diviners, philosophers, and readers.This edition, (Zhouyi: Plain-Text Edition), presents the complete classical Chinese text of the Zhouyi without the extensive scholarly commentaries traditionally printed alongside it. Readers encounter the sixty-four hexagrams (), their judgments (), and individual line statements (), together with the interpretive writings collectively known as the Ten Wings ().The volume includes the Tuan (), Xiang (), and Wenyan () commentaries within their respective hexagrams, followed by the Xici (, Great Commentary), Shuogua (, Explanation of the Trigrams), Xugua (, Sequence of the Hexagrams), and Zagua (, Miscellaneous Hexagrams).A distinctive feature of this edition is its use of Harmonized Chinese orthography (), Coldscholar's editorial approach to the written Chinese language. Rather than adhering mechanically to either traditional or simplified character conventions, Harmonized Chinese generally favors accessible modern forms while preserving meaningful historical and textual distinctions. The result is a consistent, carefully considered presentation intended to unite readability with fidelity to the classical literary tradition.Designed for sustained reading and study, this edition features carefully arranged Chinese typography, clear divisions between hexagrams and their constituent passages, and prominently displayed hexagram figures. Modern punctuation aids navigation while preserving the literary character of the original. An accompanying textual apparatus documents editorial decisions and selected textual variants.The Zhouyi occupies a remarkable position in Chinese intellectual history. Originally associated with divination and the interpretation of signs, it became a central text in the Confucian canon and a lasting source of reflection on the relationships between heaven (), earth (), and humanity (). Its influence extends through Chinese literature, political thought, ethics, metaphysics, and traditional understandings of the natural world.Published by Coldscholar, this plain-text edition is intended for readers who wish to engage directly with the classical work: students of literary Chinese, scholars of Chinese history and philosophy, readers interested in the I Ching, and anyone drawn to one of the world's most enduring books.Language: Classical Chinese, presented in Harmonized Chinese orthography (). This volume contains the original Chinese text, not an English translation. The Zhouyi (), or Book of Changes, in a clean Chinese-text edition for reading and study. Featuring the sixty-four hexagrams and their judgments and line statements, this volume presents a Chinese classic without commentary. This item is printed on demand.
