The Art of War

The Essential Translation of the Classic Book of Life (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)

Übersetzung: Minford, John

Beschreibung

In this translation, the author presents the core text in two formats: first, the unadorned ancient words of wisdom ascribed to Sun-tzu, the author of "The Art of War"; then, the same text with a running commentary from the canon of traditional Chinese commentators.

Autor

Little is known about Sun-tzu (544-496 B.C.) and his life during the Warring States period after the decline of the Zhou dynasty, but his classic work, The Art of War, has been one of the central works of Chinese literature for 2500 years.  John Minford (editor/translator) is the award-winning translator of the Viking Penguin editions of the Tao Te Ching and the I Ching and an emeritus professor of Chinese at the Australian National University.
