This course will be centered on Neo-Daoism, also called Wei-Jin Xuanxue (The Study of Mysteries in the Wei-Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties period), using close readings of scholars such as He Yan, Wang Bi, and Guo Xiang. From this point we will make comparisons back to pre-Qin thought, and forward to the development of Buddhism.
PreReq: Chinese 450
