“学而时习之,不亦悦乎!”——以孔子论“学”为通孔反观中国哲学之走向

″It Is a Pleasure to Review Frequently While Learning″——Reflections on the Trend of Chinese Philosophy from Confucius Theory on ″Learning″ Be widely versed in culture and at the same time knows how to submit it to the restraints of ritual

孔子在一定层面上意识到了人的有限性,对于外在必然性有着足够的敬畏。因而,孔子强调和重视学,其主要内容是学文和学道,即学习如何沿因旧有的生活秩序而迈向理想的生活秩序。就此而言,孔门仁学绝不是一个人自己就可以说了算的,不仅仅是一种内在之学,它要求某种外在、公共、法则的东西。

The main contents of learning in The Analects are Wen and Tao, that is, learning how to enter a dreamy new life by following old life order. So we say that Confucius realized the finite of human being, and the necessity of our world. In this way, Confucism not only focuses on the inner learning, but also demands something external, public, formal, and regular.
