试论孔子的富贵观

On Confucius's View of Riches and Honours

《论语》中的富贵观念是孔子仁学的组成部分,是以人为本位的人本主义富贵观。它既肯定富贵是基于自然情感的"人之所欲",也要求谋求富贵时坚持遵"道"、循"义"、守"信"的原则。富贵具体可以分为君子富贵和小人富贵。富贵不是终极的人生目标,"富贵,然后学",这为通达完善的人格和充实的精神提供了条件。

The concept of riches and honours in 'The Analects of Confucius' is the component of Confucius' benevolence doctrine,a conception taking man as the essentials.It makes sure that riches and honours are based on 'man's desire' of natural emotion,and meanwhile 'morality,benevolence,belief'principle must be persisted while pursuing riches and nonours.Riches and honours com be categorized as riches and honours of both man of virtue and man of lower social status.Riches and honours are not the final goal of man,but should be 'riches and honours,and then learning'.This supplies a norm for a man to be a perfect man of virtue and to be fully moralized spiritually.
