曾国藩理学思想之特色研究

Characteristic Research of Zeng Guofan's Neo-Confucianism Thought

曾国藩根据政治实践的需要,兼收并蓄中国传统哲学的各种思想为己用,“义理”与“经济”相表里,调和汉宋之争,吸收儒家思想中实用理性的养分,主张“荷道以躬”,注重实事求是,给清王朝衰朽的肌体注射了一针强心针。

According to the needs of political practice, Zeng Guo-fan took in every Chinese traditional philosophy to be his own, which advocated to cultivate one's moral character and mediated the idealist philosophy struggle between Confucian school of the Han and Song dynasties. Zeng Guo-fan absorbed the practical and rational elements of Confucianism, claimed for dedicating one's life to a cause and valued seeking for truth from facts. His philosophy was like the cardiotonic injected to the weak and corrupted body of the Qing dynasty.
