民国学人对朱熹心性论的心理学分析

Psychology Analysis of Zhu Xi's Temperament Theory by Scholars of the Period of the Republic of China

民国学者汪震、江恒源、陈钟凡、陈青之等从心理学的层面对朱熹心性论作出分析,并对其心理学思想作了阐述,认为朱熹对心、性、情、欲、意、志、才、知觉、思虑等心理要素作了界定,对各心理要素之间的相互关系进行了系统分析,建构了初步的心理学体系。在此基础上,他们还进一步分析朱熹的心理学在宋代心理学乃至中国古代心理学史上的地位。这种从心理学层面对于朱熹心性论的研究,不仅是民国时期朱子学研究的重要组成部分,而且在当今仍具有重要的学术价值。

Many scholars of the period of the Republic of China,including Wang Zhen,Jiang Hengyuan, Chen Zhongfan,and Chen Qingzhi, had analyzed Zhu Xi＇s temperament theory from the perspective of psychology. They had expounded on Zhu Xi＇s psychological thoughts, and concluded that Zhu Xi had defined some psychological elements like heart, disposition, emotion, desire, will, determination, talent, conscious- ness, and thinking, that he had carried out systematic analysis of the interrelations between these elements and thus established a tentative psychological system. In addition,they had further analyzed the position of Zhu Xi＇s psychology in Song Dynasty and the whole ancient Chinese history of psychology. These psycho- logical analyses of Zhu Xi＇s temperament theory is an important part of the study of Zhu Xi,and is still of academic significance in the present day.
