Abstract

The language used to describe agricultural life in early China was of itself a much used medium for philosophical, social, and political commentary. This paper explores how agriculture figures in the language of philosophical discourse, and what the masters of philosophy can teach us about agriculture and the peasant mode of existence in early China.
