This work explores the lives and philosophies of various ancient Chinese sages and reclusive figures, emphasizing their integrity, wisdom, and choices to withdraw from worldly affairs. The text presents a rich tapestry of characters, showcasing their moral stances against corruption and materialism. The opening of "高士傳" introduces several sage figures from ancient China, such as 汪倪, 許由, and 老子, who embody the philosophies of Confucianism and Daoism. It begins with a preface conveying the criticism of those who pursue honor and wealth at the expense of virtue.
