理性的距离:人本、宽容、自由及经验主义──周作人“自由主义”思想概述

Alternative Rationalism:Humanism，Forgiveness Liberalism and Empiricism ——Outline of Liberal Ideology of Zhou Zuo-ren

作为自由主义思想家的周作人在现代思想史、文学史上占有极其重要的历史地位。然而由于自由主义概念本身的宽泛性，理论体系上的非系统性，普及方式上的非权威性，再加上周作人曾经的附逆经历，长期以来学界对其自由主义思想缺乏全面系统的梳理和界定。因此有必要从其“人本主义思想”、“自由与宽容理念”及“经验主义认识论”等方面，对其自由主义思想进行细致的廓清。

Zhou Zuo-ren，as an eminent liberal idealist，is accepted as an influential writer in the late Chinese history of ide-ology and history of literature.However，he and his works and thoughts are once i gnored because of his ambiguity，unex-actness of his liberalism and his negative attitude toward Anti-Janpanese War.So it is necessary to portray his profound ideas，philosophy and feelings from the view of huminaty，liberalism and spirit of forgiveness.
