『墨子』 (Bokushi) is a Japanese translation of the ancient Chinese text attributed to Mozi (also known as Micius), a philosopher who lived around 400 B.C. Mozi's teachings, known as Mohism, advocated for universal love, impartiality, and utilitarianism. This edition, translated by Tsukamoto Tetsuzō, offers readers insight into Mozi's philosophy, which challenged Confucianism and promoted principles of social justice and practical benefit. 'Bokushi' remains a significant work for those interested in the intellectual history of China and alternative ethical frameworks.
