Xunzi in the Light of the Guodian Manuscripts
This article discusses the several previously unknown Confucian texts discovered in 1993 in a Warring States tomb at Guodian, near Jingmen, Hubei Province.

Of the surviving literature from the same period, they are closer to the Xunzi than to any other text, and anticipate several characteristic the…

Moreover, since these suspicious names appear in various kind of texts, including so…
Insidious syncretism in the political philosophy of Huai‐nan‐tzu 1

I argue, on the contrary, that the text makes skilful (and del…
