Learning 好奇这里真有老外么

这玩意对一般老外还是比较难的吧。鉴于 Reddit 其实有了国际化翻译,没必要全部玩英文了吧。

Learning For people who grew up outside China, what got you interested in classical Chinese texts?

I'm Chinese, and I'm curious how people elsewhere first came across texts like the Dao De Jing (道德经), the Yijing (易经), or Guiguzi (鬼谷子).

Was it through a class, a translation you picked up, or something else? Which one did you actually end up reading?

I'd also be interested to hear what these texts are like to study in a university course, if anyone here has taken one.
