Between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries, the Daodejing became a site of intercultural translation where theology, philosophy, and philology intertwined. Drawing on Sophie Ling-chia Wei’s micro-historical framework, this presentation traces three intersecting arcs: the Jesuit Figurists’ reinterpretation of the Dao as divine language, its adaptation by nineteenth-century French and British Sinologists, and its philosophical transformation in German Romantic thought. *Please register by filling out this form 如有意參與,請填寫表格提交。 *Limited seats available on a first-come first-served basis 座席有限,先到先得。 Organized by Centre for Studies of Daoist Culture 香港中文大學道教文化研究中心主辦 Enquiries 查詢: Tel 電話 - 3943 4464 Email 郵箱 - daoist@cuhk.edu.hk
