北宋初期古文家的韩愈观

The Concept of Han Yu of Ancient Prose Writer in the Early Beisong Dynasty

韩愈对北宋古文运动以及宋明理学的影响是非常巨大的。晚唐五代以来却一直很少为人们所关注。最早发现韩愈的价值和意义,并高举韩愈的大旗,排斥佛老,对抗时文,力图振兴儒学、恢复儒家独尊地位的是北宋初期的柳开、穆修等古文家。他们的韩愈观在北宋初期这一特定的时代背景下,虽然存在某种程度的偏差,但还是有一定意义的。

Han Yu had great impacts both on the ancient literature movement in the Beisong Dynasty and on the Neo-Confueianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, but he was neglected at the beginning of Beisong Dynasty. Liu kai, Mu Xiu and other ancient prose writers discovered the value and the meaning of Han Yu, they used Han Yu to exclude Buddhism confront Pianwen and tried to revitalize Confunism. Although their concepts of Han Yu had some deviations, they had some significance under the certain background of the early Beisong Dynasty.
