Beschreibungen
<p>The <em>Gongsun Longzi</em> is often considered the only extant work of the Classical Chinese “School of Names”, an early intellectual tradition (trad. dated to the 4<sup>th</sup> cent. B.C.) mainly concerned with logic and the philosophy of language. </p>
<p>The <em>Gongsun Longzi</em> is a heterogeneous collection of five chapters that include short treatises and largely fictive dialogues between an anonymous persuader and his opponent, which typically revolve around a paradoxical claim. Its value as a testimony to Early Chinese philosophy, however, is somewhat controversial due to the intricate textual history of the text and our limited knowledge about its intellectual backgrounds. </p>
<p>This volume gathers contributions by leading specialists in the fields of Classical Chinese philosophy, philology, logic, and linguistics. Besides an overview of the scholarly literature on the topic and a detailed account of the reception of the text throughout time, it presents fresh insights into philological and philosophical problems raised by the <em>Gongsun Longzi</em> and other closely-related texts equally attributed to the “School of Names”. </p>
