张春申“生命神学”对孔汉思议题的深化

Chang Chun-shen’s Life Theology deepens Hans Küng’s issue

张春申和孔汉思是当代东、西方天主教两位著名的思想家,在基督教本土化方法的探索、本土化神学的建设方面做出了杰出贡献。在基督教与中国文化融合的问题上,孔汉思基于“普世主义”和“全球伦理”思想提出了“在内自新”、“在外侧重未来”的中国基督教本土化之路;而张春申则从中国文化出发,用生命诠释学的方法构建中国神学。本文以张春申和孔汉思中国基督教的本土化思想为主要研究对象,采用对比分析的方法,探索两位思想家在中国基督教本土化路径上的差异。本文认为,就基督教与中国文化的融适而言,张春申在方法论、中国神学的建设、基督教宗教实践等方面比孔汉思做了更多的探索。正是缘于这种深化,“本土化”和“中国化”在概念上的差异得以被区分;正是缘于这种区分,张春申建构的“生命神学”得以被更深层次呈现。

Chang Chun-shen and Hans Küng are two famous theologians of contemporary Catholicism,they have made outstanding contributions to the localization methods of Christianity and the localization theology.In terms of the dialogue between Christianity and Chinese culture,Hans Küng,based on“Ecumenicism”and“Global Ethics”,put forward the way of localization of Chinese Christianity,that is“renewing itself internally”and“orienting itself toward the future”.However,Chang Chun-shen,starting from Chinese culture and Life-Hermeneutics,constructs Chinese Life Theology.Therefore,this paper sees localization thoughts from Chang Chun-shen and Hans Küng as the main research object,and uses the method of comparative analysis to explore the differences of localization throughts between the two theologians.I think that in terms of the dialogue between Christianity and Chinese culture,Chang Chunshen is more profound than Hans Küng in methodology,Chinese theology,and religious practice.Because of the differences between the two theologians,we can distinguish the distinction between Localization and Sinicization,it is also because of this distinction that we can understand deeply Chang Chun-shen’s Life Theology.
