A comparative study of what the most influential writers of Ancient
Greece and China thought it meant to have knowledge and whether
they distinguished knowledge from other forms of wisdom. It surveys
selected works of poetry, history and philosophy from the period of
roughly the eighth through to the second century BCE, including
Homer's "Odyssey," the ancient Chinese "Classic of Poetry,"
Thucydides' "History of the Peloponnesian War," Sima Qian's
"Records of the Historian," Plato's "Symposium," and Laozi's "Dao
de Jing and the writings of Zhuangzi." The intention, through such
juxtaposition, is to introduce the foundational texts of each
tradition which continue to influence the majority of the world's
population.
