Abstract:Evolved from the scriptural studies of the Western and Eastern Han, xuanxue (the Metaphysical School) of the Wei-Jin period paved the way for the Buddhism of the Sui and Tang, and the School of Principle of the Song and Ming. As one of the most important schools in Chinese intellectual tradition, Wei-Jin xuanxue
exerts a profound influence on the development of Chinese Culture. Guo Xiang's xuanxue, which marks the peak of Wei-Jin xuanxue, is undoubtedly of great significance. The past three decades saw numerous in-depth studies of Guo Xiang's thought. Some are systematic studies of its content, others investigations of multi-dimension or multi-perspective. Some Guo Xiang scholars have mainly focused on the Guo's Comentray on the Zhuangzi and its relationship to The Zhuangzi itself, others attempt to probe his philosophical method, his ideas of duhua, xuanming, ziran, mingjiao; still others have elaborated different models of the structuring of Guo's system, trying to pinpoint the school Guo belongs to. Under this circumstance, the study of Guo Xiang should be more devoted to the history of Wei-Jin xuanxue, philosophical methodology and its contemporary relevance.
