On the relationship between Zhuang zi and Zhouyi: Simultaneously on the Daoist Yi

Had been discussed by both ancient and modern scholars, the relationship between Zhuang zi and Zhouyi had become a very important component in the Daoist Yi. This relationship could be summarized into two cases: interpreting Yi by Zhuang zi and interpreting Zhuang zi by Yi. The former was embodied by WANG Bi and HAN Kang-bo's Annotations to Zhouyi while the latter was focally reflected by the Xiao-yao-you, A Free and Unfettered Voyage, in Zhuang zi. Not only had the combination of the both expanded the prospects of the two learning, but also enhanced people's thinking ability and become an indispensable link in the development of Chinese philosophy.
