The Texts of Taoism is a comprehensive collection of three essential texts of Taoism, translated into English by James Legge. The first text is the Tao Te Ching, which is a fundamental Taoist text attributed to Lao Tzu. It consists of 81 short chapters that provide guidance on living a peaceful and harmonious life. The second text, The Writings of Chuang-Tzu, is a collection of philosophical and humorous stories that explore the principles of Taoism. The third text, The Thai-Shang; Tractate of Actions and Their Retributions, is a guide to ethical behavior and the consequences of one's actions. Together, these texts provide a comprehensive understanding of Taoism, its principles, and its practical application in daily life. James Legge's translation is widely regarded as one of the most accurate and accessible translations of these texts in the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
