Yan Hui, the disciple who appears more often in the Zhuangzi than in the Lunyu, occupies a unique space in the history of Chinese thought. This talk first looks at portrayals of Yan Hui in the pre-Qin and early imperial sources in which Yan Hui is central to certain themes across this literature. Then it turns to late imperial "Confucian," "Daoist," and "Buddhist" sources where the exegesis of Yan Hui stories about "enjoying one's abode" became sites for boundary-crossing in Song and Ming exegesis.
