The Inner Chapters are the oldest pieces of the larger collection of writings by several fourth, third, and second century B.C. authors that constitute the classic of Taoism, the Chuang-Tzu (or Zhuangzi). It is this core of ancient writings that is ascribed to Chuang-Tzu himself.
Zhuang Zhou, commonly known as Zhuangzi (Chinese: 莊子; literally "Master Zhuang"; also rendered as Chuang Tzu), was an influential Chinese philosopher who lived around the 4th century BC during the Warring States period, a period corresponding to the summit of Chinese philosophy, the Hundred Schools of Thought. He is credited with writing—in part or in whole—a work known by his name, the *Zhuangzi*, which is one of the foundational texts of Taoism. **Source**: [Zhuang Zhou](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhuang_Zhou) on Wikipedia.
