Han Fei Tzu: Basic Writings Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Representative of the Fachia, or Legalist, school of philosophy, the writings of Han Fei Tzu (280?-233 B.C.) confront the issues of preserving and strengthening the state. His lessons remain timely as scholars continue to examine the nature and use of power. Burton Watson provides a new preface and a helpful introduction.

Synopsis:

Han Fie Tzu (280?-233 B.C.) was a prince of the ruling house of the small state of Han. A representative of the Fa-chia, or Legalist, school of philosophy, he produced the final and most readable exposition of its theories. Burton Watson is one of the world's most celebrated translators of Chinese and Japanese.
