龙树的著作，是大乘经学的代表性作品。龙树结合当时流行的大乘经典和印度主流学风，提炼出"中道""八不""二谛""中观"等范畴，既回溯了释迦牟尼以来的佛教传统，又在一定意义上重构了这一传统。他从经典中提炼出来的论证方式也颇有特色，其论述的内容和论证的逻辑都是随缘而立、而破的，从根本上说都可以消解。这种阐释方式与现代阐释学探寻生活的可能性不同，龙树的中道思想以"不生不灭"为特点，具有明显的出世之道的特征。

Nagarjuna's writings are representative works of Mahayana Buddhism. Combining the Mahayana classics prevailing at that time with the mainstream Indian traditions and putting forward categories such as "middle way", "eight negation", "two truths", he not only dated back to Shakyamuni in the tradition of Buddhism, but also reconstructed it. His arguing method extracted from classic texts is very unique. The content and logic of the argument is established or vanished timely. Differing from modern hermeneutics which explores the possibilities of life, Nagarjuna's Middle Way is characterized by "neither dying nor being born", standing aloof from this world.
