中国园林与儒家思想

Chinese Classical Gardens and Confucianism

该文通过对有关中国园林与儒家思想诸种说法的整理分析,发现中国园林与儒家思想有一定的关系,但并没有目前人们所论证的那样紧密。论证儒家思想与中国园林发生联系的许多理由,有些在理论上经不住推敲,有些并不具有普遍性的意义。文章指出儒家思想影响中国园林的新的途径与新的方式,强调只有将儒家思想中诚敬端正的价值观念贯彻于园林的营造之中,通过在园林中重新发挥传统园林启发智慧、端正心灵等诸多功能,才是中国园林得以发展,充满希望和生命力的关键所在。

Through summarizing and discussing the Confucianism and evaluating the arguments on the viewpoint of ＂Chinese classical gardening reflecting Confucianism＂, the paper confirms that Chinese classical gardening has certain relationship with Confucianism, pointing out that the effect of Confucianism on Chinese classical gardening is not as large as what those arguments proved. Through elucidating the way Confucianism affects the Chinese clasical gardening,the paper stresses that only by carrying out the Confucian values of sincerity and correctitude in Chinese classical gardening design and construction, reliving the civilizing function of igniting intelligence, correcting some philosophy, and reflecting on the significance of the life, all of which belong to Confucianism in Chinese classical gardening, can the Chinese classical gardening get rid of the fate that being submerged by western culture and relive the power of sustainable development.
