Glossary of Zhuangzi exegesis

This is a glossary of Zhuangzi (Chuang-tzu) exegesis (for further details on the early Chinese text, see the main article "Zhuangzi (book)" and the biographical article "Zhuang Zhou").

The glossary pertains to the transmission and commentary history of the Chinese literary and philosophical text, one of the two basic texts of the Daoist tradition, which is known in English under different titles.

Zhuangzi ( "Master Zhuang") or Zhuang Zhou (; c. 369-286 B.C) was a Daoist philosopher and poet during China's Warring States period. He holds an important position in the history of Chinese philosophy, literature, aesthetics, and intellectual thought. Among the prose works of various thinkers, Zhuangzi's writings are the most vivid and wonderful; they are rich in poetic atmosphere, picturesque in style, and display strong individual characteristics.

Two of the earliest known commentators to the Zhuangzi - before the textual editing by Guo Xiang (in 33 chapters) - are Cui Zhuan 崔譔 (fl. 290 CE) and Xiang Xiu 向秀 (ca. 227−272 CE).

Today there are four common types of Zhuangzi editions: 1. consisting of only the text; 2. only with Guo Xiang's commentary (zhu); 3. with Guo Xiang's commentary followed by Lu Deming's notes (yinyi); 4. with Guo Xiang's commentary and Cheng Xuanying's sub-commentary (shu).

The German sinologist characterizes the broad spectrum of the commentators with the words: <blockquote> These commentaries include those by philosophers like Guo Xiang (died 312 A.D.), by the eccentric emperor Jianwen (503 — 511 A.D.), by linguists like Lu Deming (died 630 A.D.), by Buddhist monks like Cheng Xuanying (fl. 631 A.D.), by the iconoclastic Neo-Confucian philosopher Li Zhi (1527–1602), by a great Neo-Confucian philosopher like Wang Fuzhi (1619–1692), by philologists like Guo Qingfan (1845–1897), and by embattled Marxists like Guan Feng (who published his commentary in 1961). </blockquote>

Modern spade work in Chinese textual criticism did Wang Shumin (1914–2008), who revised and expanded his Zhuangzi jiaoshi 庄子校释 / 莊子校釋 (Shanghai: Shangwu, 1947) later as → Zhuangzi jiaoquan 庄子校诠 / 莊子校詮 (Taipei: Institute of History and Philology, 1988), whereby his later textual research was included in the later volume of 1988. He based his research on reliable editions, added critical comments by Qing scholars and included reconstituted redactions of lost fragments of the Zhuangzi, incorporating most of the fragmentary and indirect testimony to the text. According to Harold D. Roth (in: ECT), it is "the most valuable work of textual criticism ever written" on the Zhuangzi.

A new restored version is given in the Zhuangzi fuyuan ben 庄子復原本 (abb. ZZFYB) by Zhang Yuanshan 张远山 (2 vols., Beijing 2021), reconstructing a Wei Mou edition (Wei Mou ban 魏牟版) and Liu An edition (Liu An ban 刘安版).

The importance for the understanding of Daoism can also be derived from the fact (mentioned by Chinaknowledge), that the <blockquote> [...] imperial series Siku quanshu 四庫全書, pretending to be a "complete collection" of writings, reduced the Daoist part practically to commentaries on the Daodejing, Zhuangzi 莊子 (Nanhua zhenjing 南華真經) or Liezi 列子 (Chongxu zhide zhenjing 沖虛至德真經) and shifted the Daoist section to the very end of the Masters category. </blockquote>

Glossary

<small>Note: The following glossary of Zhuangzi exegesis (the Chinese word for exegesis is xunguxue: ) is not a glossary of the Zhuangzi contents, but rather of its transmission, editions, and commentary tradition — in other words, of the philological and exegetical tradition surrounding the text. Some book titles are roughly translated. The information provided does not claim to be complete or up-to-date (for a good overview, compare the voluminous collections edited by Yan Lingfeng , or the overview of Zhuangzi studies especially by Fang Yong (who is also the author of Zhuangzi xueshi 莊子學史 (History of Zhuangzi studies). 3 vols. Beijing: Renmin chubanshe, 2008; later revised and enlarged), mentioned in the section: Bibliography (Overviews and collections)). - See also Appendix.</small>

This latter edition has become the standard editio princeps of the text. According to Harbsmeier & Williams it was at this point that the Zhuangzi „became a printed object of historical philology“.
