陈应润对图书学的质疑和批评

Chen Yingrun's Questioning and Criticism of the Doctrine Related to the He tu and Luo shu

陈应润对图书学的质疑和批评不等于对河图、洛书的一般性地反对,但他明确否定邵雍的先天八卦方位。所谓后天或文王八卦,其实正是伏羲八卦的本来模样,文王则是继承了伏羲的图式。爻变是陈应润分析《周易》卦爻运动的基本方法。十二卦阴阳消长,说到底是乾坤的互变。《四库总目提要》对陈应润破陈抟之学的称许,大致是可以成立的。

Chen Yingrun's questioning and criticism of the Hetu(Yellow Rivers Chart)and Luoshu(Luo River Writing)were not a general objection to them.However,he explicitly denied Shao Yong's(1011-1077)xiantian[lit.prior to the formation of heaven and earth]sequence of the eight trigrams;the so-called houtian [posterior to the formation of heaven and earth]or King Wen's sequence of the eight trigrams actually was the original appearance of Fu Xi's sequence and King Wen just inherited Fu Xi's schemata.Changing of line(s)was a basic approach of his to the analysis of the movements of hexagrams and lines of the Zhou Changes.In his view,the waxing and waning of the twelve sovereign hexagrams was after all expressible as the mutual transformations between Qian[■]and Kun[■].The praise from the Siku quanshu zongmu tiyao(Annotated General Catalogue of the Complete Collection of the Four Treasuries)for Chen Yingrun's rebuttal of Chen Tuan's(871-989)doctrine can be generally established.
