董仲舒“正其谊不谋其利,明其道不计其功”管窥

On Dong Zhongshu's Idea of “Being Just Rather than Seeking Benefits and Understanding Moral Principles Rather than Being Concerned for Merits”

从考察《春秋繁露·对胶西王越大夫不得为仁》与《汉书·董仲舒传》的不同记载与其本义入手,认为正谊明道是董仲舒针对诸侯王咨询越国三仁问题的答复,其本义是董仲舒关于仁人标准的看法。古往今来,人们进行了多方面的评价,可归纳为高度赞扬、严厉批判、平实看待3种。追根溯源,董仲舒的正谊明道来源于先秦诸子的思想,被后人视为儒家义利观的经典语言,直至现代仍有其生命力。

This paper, based on the study of the different records and the ideas of Replies to the Idea of the Official of Yue in Jiaoxi that One Should Not Be Benevolent in Chunqiu Fanlu and The Bibliography of Dong Zhongshu in Han Shu, holds that being just and understanding moral principles is Dong Zhongshu＇s reply to the questions of the three benevolent persons when counseled by the king of the dukes, and its original meaning is Dong Zhongshu＇s idea about the standard of benevolent persons. Since ancient times, many comments which can be concluded into high praise, severe criticism and simple and honest treatment. Dong Zhongshu＇s idea of being just and understanding moral principles, which originated from pre-qin scholars＇ thoughts, is considered as the classic words of Confucian idea of justice and benefit and it it still has its own vitality in modern times.
