生命之“和”——孔子“人学”思想再评价

Harmony of life —Evaluating Confucian Thoughts about “person” from a new point

孔子“和”的思想与其关于“人”的思想密不可分。本文认为 ,孔子的“人学”思想虽没有摆脱严格的等级规范 ,但尊重人的观念已提到相当高度 ,孔子“人学”思想全面地把握人的本质 ,高扬了个体人格的独立性与主动性 ,并且认为自然美与社会美都是个体生命充足、完满。

The idea “harmony” is closely related to the idea “person” in Confucian philosophy.Although his theory about “human being” couldn't break away from strict class standards,Confucius respected a person's value greatly.The theory of “human nature” was elaborated by Confucius.He appreciated a person's independence and initiative.The beauty of the nature and society were expressed by individuals' having developed to the full.
