This 1985 monograph is a cornerstone of Soviet Sinology, representing the first comprehensive study in Russian dedicated to the life and legacy of Mozi (Mo Di), the founder of Mohism. Written by Mikhail Titarenko, a preeminent scholar and longtime director of the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, the text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of "universal love" (jian'ai) and meritocracy, including the arrangement of the Mohist school’s unique paramilitary and religious organization. During the "Warring States" period, Mo Di emerged as the chief rival to Confucianism, advocating for a utilitarian social order, frugal living, and defensive warfare. Titarenko’s analysis masterfully situates these ancient doctrines within the broader socio-political transformation of early China, highlighting the school’s pioneering contributions to logic and epistemology.
The volume is edited by Leonard Perelomov, another titan of Russian Chinese studies, ensuring the highest level of academic rigor and philological precision. Across its 245 pages, the study examines the structure of the Mozi text, the evolution of Mohist logic in the later stages of the school's development, and the eventual decline of the movement following the Qin unification. Published by the Nauka house under the "Main Editorial Board of Oriental Literature," the book features a classic academic hardcover design. For bibliophiles, historians of philosophy, and collectors of Sinological literature, this 1985 Moscow imprint is a vital primary source, documenting the recovery of one of China's most heterodox and influential philosophical voices within the Russian scientific tradition.
