郭店儒简的重“情”论

The Thought of Advocating the Emotion from Guodian Confucian Bamboo Slips

郭店儒简《性自命出》篇的重"情"观,代表了早期原始儒家关于心性思想的一大特色即"道始于情"。通过将郭店儒简"情与文相对待为义"与孔子"文质彬彬"的对照式考察,可以揭示出《性自命出》篇的"情",实际上源自于孔子"尚质"的传统,是孔子"仁"学中侧重于人心内在真性情的流露。这样把握郭店儒简的"情",不仅对深入揭示儒家早期心性思想的起源,而且还对正确解读先秦儒家的诸多原始文献,均具有重要的学术价值。

The thought of advocating the emotion from Xingzimingchu （ Nature comes out of life） , a part of Guodian Confucian Bamboo Slips（GCBS） , is representative of the thought about the nature of mind in early primitive Confucianism, namely, the Tao derived from the emotion. By contrasting observation of ＂the mutual respect between the emotion and the elegancy is righteousness＂ from GCBS and ＂the integrity of elegancy and refinement＂ advocated by Confucius, we can find that the emotion from Xingzimingchu was in fact derived from the Confucian tradition of advocating refinement, and also the natural outpouring of the true feelings implied in Confucius＇ thought of benevolence. The understanding of the emotion implied in GCBS in this way can avail not only the profound revealing of the origin of the thought about the nature of mind from early Confucianism, but also the correct interpretation of the primitive documents of Confucianism in the period before the Qin Dynasty.
