唐顺之的“道器不二”论与欧阳修思想的渊源

Sources of Tang Shunzhi's ‘Inseparability of Skills and Morality’ and Ouyang Xiu Thoughts

唐顺之"即经而心"的学术思想、神明与法度合一的文学观念可溯源至欧阳修的道器论。唐顺之前后期对神明与法度的主次关系的两种看法,分别对应于欧阳修器重于道的心性论和道重于器的文艺论。唐顺之的心学与欧阳修的心论有契合之处,其道器论所引例证和表述都与欧阳修接近,这也证明了两者之间的渊源关系。在阳明心学之外,唐顺之的思想有着更早的、来自欧阳修等文学前辈的理论动力,这是形成唐顺之学术和文学思想独特性的重要原因。

Tang Shunzhi's academic thoughts and his literary ideas of the oneness of deity and law can be traced back to Ouyang Xiu's thoughts on skills and morality.The two different views on deity and law prevalent before and after Tang Shunzhi are very close to Ouyang Xiu's mind-nature and literary theories.Tang Shunzhi's theory of the mind shares similar characteristics with Ouyang Xiu's mind-nature theory.Tang's theory of skills and morality is close to that of Ouyang Xiu's in terms of its elaboration and exposition.Besides the influence of Wang Yanming,Tan Shunzhi is very much influenced by earlier literati such as Ouyang Xiu,etc,these are important sources of Tang Shunzhi's literary thoughts.
