Xifang yu Laozi de xiangyu: Huayi xuezhi Laozi lunwen Zhongyi jingxuanji 西方與老子的相遇《華裔學志》——老子論文中譯精選輯 – The Encounter of the Western World and Lao Zi: Chinese Translation of Selected Articles on Lao Zi in Monumenta Serica, volume 12 of the series Furen daxue Huayi xuezhi congshu xilie 輔仁大學華裔學志叢書系列, has been just published by Fu Jen Catholic University Press.


This publication presents various insights and perspectives on the philosophy of Laozi and the work ascribed to him, the Daodejing (Classic on the Way and the Virtue). Among the contributors are renowned scholars of Daoist religion and philosophy such as Livia Köhn, Florian Reiter, Wolfgang Bauer (1930–1997), and Irene Eber (1929–2019). All articles were previously published in Monumenta Serica – Journal of Oriental Studies. The collection was edited by Prof. Huang Meiting 黄渼婷, director of the Monumenta Serica Sinological Research Centre (MSSRC), and Prof. Zbigniew Wesołowski (Wei Siqi 魏思齊), former director of the MSSRC and current director and editor-in-chief of the Monumenta Serica Institute. The translation into Chinese was done by Dr. Jiang Ryh-Shin 江日新 (Hsing Wu University, New Taipei City, Taiwan), an expert on the philosophy of Laozi.
