In his \u003ci\u003eTao Te Ching\u003c\/i\u003e, Lao Tzu outlined the basic concept of Tao. Chuang Tzu and Lieh Tzu were Lao Tzu's most important followers who expounded and expanded the basic principles set forth by Lao Tzu. Together, the sayings of these three sages, which make up this volume, are the foundations for the philosophy of Tao. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The translations of the works of these ancient Chinese sages by Lionel and Herbert Giles are very highly regarded and considered by many to be the definitive English translations. Lionel's translation of The Sayings of Lao Tzu (1905), taken from the \u003ci\u003eTao Te Ching\u003c\/i\u003e and logically re-ordered, is remarkable for its clarity of expression, particularly given the complexity of the subject. Herbert's translation of \u003ci\u003eThe Sayings of Chuang Tzu\u003c\/i\u003e, presented here, with an introduction by Lionel, was originally published as \u003ci\u003eMusings of a Chinese Mystic\u003c\/i\u003e (1906). Lionel's translation of \u003ci\u003eThe Sayings of Lieh Tzu\u003c\/i\u003e was originally published as \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Lieh Tzu, Teachings in Taoism\u003c\/i\u003e (1912). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Individually the works of these Chinese sages are classics.
