Dao De Jing

Comparisons of Chinese versions
The table below will allow you to download a comparison chart of the Chinese characters with PinYin spellings of each chapter of the Dao De Jing in PDF format.

The versions listed in these charts include:

Wang Bi
Heshang Gong
Fu Yi
Mawangdui Text A
Mawangdui Text B
Guodian
Your Dao De Jing

Please read "Notes on the Charts" first, which gives a brief explanation of the various texts, cites resources used, and explains the symbols used.

All PDF files are very small, so they shouldn't take long to download. The files will open in Adobe Reader on your computer.

My special thanks and warm appreciation goes to Bradford Hatcher for all his support, assistance and putting up with me when I whined. Check out his incredible and informative site:

Thanks also to Dods for suggesting the idea in the first place.

Any suggestions, contributions or corrections are welcomed.

Thank you-
Nina
