论孔子的“一分为三”哲学思想

On Confucian “one-divides-into-three” philosophical thought

孔子是中国哲学史上第一个"一分为三"论者,他虽然没有明确直接公开地提出该命题,但却有此哲学思想。中庸之道、适度原则、矫枉归正、叩其两端、合二而一都体现着"一分为三",运用了"三分法",同时还广泛地运用"三"去认识、分析和概括人、事、物。

Cortfucius is the first advocate of ＂one-divides-into-three＂ theory, which has never been explicitly put forward. While ＂the doctrine of the mean＂,＂ appropriateness principle＂,＂ doing within proper limits in righting wro ＂ ends＂ ＂ wrongs , ＂knocking both , two combine into one＂ all embody ＂one-divides-into-three＂ thought. Meanwhile, he has widely utilized ＂three＂ to understand, analyze, and generalize people, things and objects.
