    Through comparing different translations of the same texts one can get an idea of the meanings for the Chinese words used by Chuang Tzu in his work. In comparison to the English language the difference in the translations of the text gives the impression that the Chinese words used are much broader terms and must be simplified before we can describe them in English. This paper will assess the second section of the Chuang Tzu, specifically Discussion on making all things equal translated by Burton Watson.[1]…

Water delivery was widely accepted and practiced by scholar-official tea connoisseurs in the late-Ming era. Tian Yiheng has explained the way in which drinkers should deliver the spring water from the Mount Hui in the Zhu quan xiao pin, and he suggested that drinkers should send honest servants to fulfill this job so that they would not bring bad water from any places nearby. Another active practitioner of water delivery was Li Rihua (1565-1635), a scholar-official from Jiaxing, which was a prefecture considered as a hinge between Suzhou and Hangzhou along the Grand Canal. As soon as Li received his jinshi degree in the year of 1592, he became a friend of the Xiang family, which was the most influential and wealthiest family in town, based upon their common obsessions with the collection of paintings. The distance between Jiaxing and the Mount Hui was around 300 li by water, which usually took the travelers three or four days to arrive at the other…
