Life and Thought
Zhuang Zhou (c. 369–286 BCE) was a Chinese philosopher and one of the principal founders of Taoist thought; the book attributed to him, the Zhuangzi, stands alongside Laozi's Tao Te Ching as a foundational text of the tradition. Through storytelling, humor, and paradox, he explored the relativity of human knowledge, freedom from social convention, and spontaneous harmony with the Tao.
