About :

Kai Marchal was 22 when he travelled to China on the Trans-Siberian Railway, with a longing for alternative ways of thinking in his luggage. He is now a professor of philosophy in Taipei. Barbara Bleisch talks to him about the art of not thinking and the wisdom of the Dao. Our image of China is shaped by rapid change: the population is moving into the cities, consumption is growing exponentially, the environment is suffering. But China is also a place of longing that practices turning away from everything and instructs us to surrender to the Dao, the mysterious principle of all becoming and passing away. How do these images fit together? And can we rational Westerners even understand Chinese thinking? Did the Daoists and Confucians pursue a philosophical project that can help us lead a successful life? Or is their teaching more of a religion? Kai Marchal has written an amusing and profound book about his life in China, which also provides an introduction to Chinese thinking. Barbara Bleisch meets him for a conversation. Literature: Kai Marchal: "Step through the wall and become who you (are not). On the trail of Chinese thought".
