From Being to Living. A Euro-Chinese lexicon of thought by François Jullien

(De l'Être au Vivre. Lexique euro-chinois de la pensée.)

Published December 2019

Translated by Michael Richardson and Krzysztof Fijalkowski

This new English translation of François Jullien’s work is a compelling summation of his thinking on the comparison and divergences between Western and Chinese thought. Jullien argues that Western thinking is preoccupied with the question of ‘being’, whereas Chinese thought concerned itself principally with that of ‘living’.
