The thesis starts with a biographical study of Tao's life and religious experiences by regarding him as an individual living in given social and cultural milieu, in contrast to the general explanatory model related to the development of Taoism in the medieval China. The purpose of the biographical study is to acquire a sympathetic understanding of Tao's point of view of the revealed texts, which will partly explain why Tao concentrated on the revealed manuscripts. Reading into the exegetic texts, I will reconsider Tao's status in the between of revealed manuscripts and Maoshan Revelations with their own meanings and coherent structures, bases on which new understanding of the relation between Tao and Maoshan Revelations will be elucidated with discovery of Tao's authorship in the formation of the Maoshan Revelations. After textual criticism of the exegetic texts, setting the structure and contexts of Tao's exegesis as the starting point, I will link up the exegetic texts with Tao's other writings to reconstruct his Taoist thoughts. / This thesis examines the Taoist thoughts of Tao Hongjing (456-536) through a detailed analysis of his exegetic work on Maoshan Revelations. I will attempt to figure out the structure and elements of Tao's Taoist thoughts in my reading of the exegesis, and then reconsider Tao's other writings and Taoist practices within the interpretative framework consists of the structure and theological elements found in the exegesis. Thus, this thesis will consider the following questions respectively: how Tao's individual life and mysterious experiences shaped his understanding of revealed manuscripts; Tao's role as compiler and author in the formation of Maoshan Revelations, setting Tao's exegesis within the tension between fragmentary revealed manuscripts and Taoist scriptures with coherent structures and systematical Taoist thoughts; how one can reconstruct and understand Tao's Taoist thoughts through the structure and contents of his exegesis on Maoshan Revelations, within which his Taoist thoughts unfolded. / This work will bring forth an alternative account for Tao as an individual with Taoist belief that based his religious world on revealed Taoist teachings. With the help of biographical study on Tao's mysterious experiences and dreams and reading into the exegesis, the significances of revelations in Tao's Taoist thoughts will be illuminated in following ways: Tao's mysterious experiences made him believe in the authenticity of the revealed teachings; his sympathetic understanding of revealed manuscripts drew him into the exegetic work, within which he unfolded his Taoist thoughts; Tao turned to the revealed teachings of the immortals through meditation when he run into problems during his Taoist practice. / 程樂松. / Sumitted: 2005年12月[Dec. 2005] / Sumitted: 2005 nian 12 yue [Dec. 2005] / Adviser: Chi-tim Lai. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 70-09, Section: A, page: . / Thesis (doctoral)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2006. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 231-243). / Electronic reproduction.

Pierre Hadot, dans Qu’est-ce que la philosophie antique? et dans Exercices spirituels et philosophie antique, propose une relecture des textes fondateurs de la philosophie occidentale afin de démontrer qu’originellement, les philosophes de l’Antiquité avaient pour but non seulement d’élaborer une systématisation rationnelle du monde, mais également de modifier concrètement, grâce à certains exercices, leur manière de vivre. Aujourd’hui, cette conception de la philosophie n’est plus privilégiée : l’aspect intellectuel à pris le dessus sur l’aspect expérientiel, ce qui incite à considérer la philosophie avant tout comme un discours rationnel et objectif. Pour cette raison, la pensée métaphorique, imagée et poétique de Zhuangzi, ne peut pour certains être considérée comme véritablement philosophique puisqu’elle ne cherche pas à élaborer une conception systématique de la réalité. Elle propose plutôt des moyens de s’ouvrir à l’expérience, grâce à certaines pratiques concrètes, afin de devenir plus sage. Ce mémoire cherchera à réhabiliter l’aspect expérientiel de la philosophie privilégié notamment par les penseurs grecs de l’antiquité, afin de démontrer la valeur proprement philosophique de l’oeuvre de Zhuangzi. / Pierre Hadot, in Qu’est-ce que la philosophie antique? and Exercices spirituels et philosophie antique, suggests a new interpretation of texts from ancient philosophers which show that originally, the goal of those philosophers was not only to elaborate a rational systematization of the world, but also to change concretely their way of life. Today, this conception of philosophy is no longer promoted: the intellectual aspect has overcome the experiential aspect, which results in the general conception that philosophy is mainly a rational and objective discourse. Thus, for some, the metaphorical and poetical writings of Zhuangzi cannot be considered truly philosophical because they do not search for a systematic conception of reality. They rather suggest approaches for new experiences of reality, made possible by certain exercises, and show how to gain more wisdom. This work will try to rehabilitate the experiential aspect of philosophy, in order to show the philosophical value of the Zhuangzi.

Title: Letting go and detachment in the Tao Te Ching and in the works of Meister Eckhart Type: Diploma thesis Author: Alena Michutová Supervisor: doc. Pavel Hošek, ThD. Site: Neratov Year of solving: 2013 Pages: 120 This diploma thesis is divided into five chapters. The first one deals with goals and methods of the work and the fifth chapter is the conclusion. The theme itself is divided into three chapters: (2) theme of detachment in the Tao Te Ching, (3) theme of detachment by Meister Eckhart, (4) comparison of the detachment in the Tao Te Ching and in the works of Meister Eckhart. The first part is concerned with the character of Laozi, the book of Tao Te Ching and its position in the Taoist canon. Then the basic terms of the Tao Te Ching, Tao, wu-wei and sameness, are examined. Consequently, the necessary analyses, which is interspersed with numerous citations from the Tao Te Ching and also from the secondary literature, follows to approach the topic "detachment in the Tao Te Ching". In the end, I briefly outline, how the idea of detachment has been devepoled in Taoist praxis from the very beginning up to the present time. The similar method for the topic of detachment by Meister Eckhart has been chosen - at first I deal with the character of Meister Eckhart, then with his Latin and German...

文化的差異對於管理的成效有很重要的影響，領導者居組織的中心地位，對於組織的成敗更責無旁貸。本論文屬於中國式管理的一部份，重點即是在探討中國文化中最具影養力的儒､道兩家哲學思想中所展現之理想領導型態。文分四章：第一章闡釋文化對管理之重要性，第二章與第三章分別就儒､道兩家的修養方式､人格特性､理想領導型態及政治理想進行闡釋。結論部份對儒､道兩家的思想作一比較，並對後續研究者做建議。本文研究結果指出儒家理想之領導型態，是以『正名』為基礎而發展出之『德治』與『禮治』之領導原則。道家理想之領導型態是『無為』，而其要旨則在『嗇』這個觀念。
