“学衡派”的人性善恶论——以吴宓、缪凤林为例

The View on Human Nature of "the Xueheng School"——Take WU Mi and MIAO Feng-lin as Examples

吴宓、缪凤林是"学衡派"中谈论人性较多的学者。他们主张人性二元论,认为人性有善有恶,可善可恶。他们的人性论有重要的西学背景,但主要是对中国传统伦理尤其是儒家伦理的复归,表现出"学衡派"作为文化民族主义派别的一些基本特征。

WU Mi and MIAO Feng-lin are two scholars in ＂Xueheng School＂,who discuss human nature the most frequently.They advocate dualism of human nature,holding that there are good as well as evil human nature and people can choose to be good or evil.Their theory of human nature has important western background,but it is mainly a return to traditional Chinese ethics particularly Confucian ethics.It also shows some essential features of cultural nationalism of ＂the Xueheng School＂.
