刘师培与中国近代伦理新术语的生成

Liu Shipei and the new terminologies of ethics in modern China

中国近代伦理学新术语不仅是构筑中国近代伦理学的重要基石,也是其学科现代化的内在动力。在中国近代伦理学新术语生成中,刘师培起到了独树一帜的作用:一是使伦理成为一门专学,为中国近代伦理新术语的大量生成提供了良好契机;二是以重构中国伦理为蓝图,创造新学语;三是以中学比附西学,重置、转化有关概念。尤其是他的《伦理教科书》首次比较完备地呈现了中国近代伦理学核心术语群,为促使中国伦理学成为一门独立的近代学科做出了非同寻常的贡献。

The new terminologies of ethics in modern China act as a milestone for the modern Chinese ethics, and as an impetus to boost the modernization of the discipline. It is a blueprint of Chinese ethics in comparison with the related conceptions and expressions in the western ethics. Hence, Liu Shipei helps with the establishment of the Chinese ethics as an independent discipline.
