This text considers the prevalence of Lao-Zhuang Daoism and
Huang-Lao Daoism in late pre-imperial and early imperial Chinese
traditional thought. The author uses unique excavated documents and
literature to explore the Huang-Lao tradition of Daoist philosophy,
which exerted a great influence on China ancient philosophy and
political theories, from the Pre-Qin period to the Wei-Jin periods.
It explains the original and significance of Huang-Lao Daoism, its
history and fundamental characteristics, notably discussing the two
sides of Huang-Lao, namely the role and function of Lao Zi and the
Yellow Emperor, and discusses why the two can constitute a
complementary relationship. It also provides a key study of the
Mawangdui silk texts, bamboo slips of the Heng Xian, Fan Wu Liu
Xing, considering both the theory of human Xing and of Qi.
