谢无量经学思想略论

On Xie Wuliang's Thought of Confucian Classics

谢无量是具有鲜明时代气息和强烈创新精神的新型学者,以独到的学术眼光和敏锐的学术意识体察到近代以来经学向现代知识体系分流和转化的学术思潮。不仅率先以梳理二千年中国哲学和文学变迁史的形式,尝试运用现代哲学和文学理念统摄经学;而且顺乎"六经皆史料"的时代潮流,融经入史,既将儒家经典与诸子平等看待,通过挖掘经典的史料价值以探究古代社会情形,又以历史眼光梳理经学演变,从而大大开拓了经典研究的新方法。值得一提的是,其对唯物史观较早接受并尝试运用。与此同时,和当时大多数学者一样,其学术研究中亦带有一定的传统经学倾向,即表现出浓郁的"信古"风格。

Xie Wuliang is a new type of scholar with creative thoughts,keen academic insight,and keeps up with the times. He not only tried to use modern philosophy and literary concepts to govern Confucian Classics,but also studied the ancient society through exploring the historical value of classics and thus greatly expanded the methods of classic studies. What's more,he accepted the historical materialism and attempted to apply it at an earlier time. In the meantime,his academic study was strongly tinted with the 'Believing History' style just like other scholars at that time.
