龚自珍哲学思想的近代意蕴

The Modern Meaning of Gong Zizhen's Philosophy Idea

龚自珍认为人的本性并没有天生的贵贱之分,情感是人性的自然流露,应当宽容地对待性情,给个性解放提供条件。他崇尚个体的自我意志和心力,看重人才对社会发展的作用;主张人人都有私心,私心是合乎人性的。他针对当时的衰世提出了具体的改良方案,这体现了其哲学思维的实用性,与当时启蒙思潮的时代性和独特性相一致。

Gong Zi-zhen believed that human nature is not born of high and low social status. While the emotion is revealed naturally from human nature, we should treat both of them tolerantly, which can provide the prerequisite for the liberation of personality. He advocated individual self-determination and the power from heart, and also thought that human resources played an important role in social development. He believed that everyone is selfish, and selfishness accords with human nature. He brought forth to some concrete reform schemes which had reflected practicability of his philosophy, and were compatible with the unique enlightenment trend.
