黑格尔和谢林论中国在“普遍历史”中的地位

China’s Position in the General History in the Eyes of Hegel and Schelling

黑格尔和谢林的历史哲学体系继承了康德的"普遍历史"思想。在这两位哲学家的历史哲学构想中,中国都占据着一个确定的地位。然而,通过对这个地位的深入分析表明,黑格尔是把中国看作普遍历史进程的初级阶段,而谢林则是强调中国游离于普遍历史进程之外的独特性。相关分析既让我们认识到了黑格尔和谢林的历史哲学的分野,也有助于我们更好地反思中国精神的特性,以及它在历史中的真正地位。

The philosophies of history of Hegel and Schelling reveal their inheritance of the 'general history' of Immanuel Kant,which give China a definite position.However,Hegel regards China as an initial stage of the general history while Schelling stresses the unique features of China deviating from the general history.Their differences in the philosophies of history can shed some light on the features of the Chinese spirit and its real position in history.
