《易》学文化的内涵及其覆盖领域

On the forming and reflection of the ZhouYi culture

文化是人类生存发展的核心,而其本身也应当有一个核心。从普遍意义上讲,经典哲学对其它学科的指导作用,只是一种外部的影响力,而不能成为各学科的核心内容。而比诸其他民族的文化,中国古代的文化有一个核心,那就是《周易》,因为从其内容本身及其易学文化演变的历史看,他不仅对其它学科有着深切的指导作用,而且其本身就成为许多学科的核心内容。这是易学文化的特色,也是我们民族文化的特色。

Culture is the key for human development, and it should have been a core itself. Take a more extensive view, classical philosophy have merely an external reflection to the other discipline. Compare with other nation＇s culture, however, Chinese culture have a core that is the Book of Change. From Zhou Yi＇s contents itself and evolvement of its culture. Not only did it reflect profoundly to other knowledge, but also turn into other discipline＇s core in its own fight. This is characteristic of Zhou Yid as well as our nations＇ characteristic.
