View full profile →

Wang Bi (226–249 CE) was a precocious philosopher and commentator of the Wei dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period. He is best known for his foundational commentaries on the Dao De Jing and the I Ching (Yijing), which established the 'Profound Learning' (Xuanxue) tradition. His brief but brilliant career ended with his death at age 23, leaving a legacy that profoundly shaped Chinese metaphysics.
