古代统治者对待隐士的双重标准

The Double Standards that the Ancient Rulers Treated Hermits

隐士是中国古代一个非常特殊的社会阶层。中国自古以来就有尊重隐士的传统,历代统治者基本上都是礼敬隐士的。但自先秦以来,反对隐逸的呼声也一直不绝于耳,有时甚至达到了相当激烈的程度。本文通过对尊隐、反隐两种历史现象的分析,发现古代统治者对待隐士所使用的乃是带有很大主观随意性的双重标准,而其立论的出发点却惊人地一致。

Hermits were a special class in ancient China.It is generally considered that hermits were respected by ancient rulers,but since the pre-Qin dynasty voices against hermits had been in the ears and sometimes rather intense.This paper analyzes the two opposing phenomena and points out that ancient rulers had double standards to treat hermits with great subjective random,but that their starting point was the same is surprising.
