摘要
本文立足于文献,尤其是先秦儒家的文献,在对《大学》、《中庸》的关键词进行训诂考证和文献思想分析的基础之上,对《大学》的"明明德"、"格物"和《中庸》的"中"和"天命之谓性"等概念与判断的含义及其与文献思想的关系进行了深入的研究,探赜索隐,阐幽表微,深刻揭示了这两部经典的宗教性内涵,系统阐述了在儒家哲学理论框架下,人之所以为人者只有在"天"与"人"的关系之中才能充分实现的根本道理。本文以先秦儒家由原始宗教向人文主义转型的历史脉络为依据,刷新了历代关于"格物、致知"、"中"、"天命之谓性"的各种观点,为现代人格物致知、正心诚意、修身齐家,走向社会,走向世界,加强道德修养,去做一个真正有根底、有理想、有道德、有践履的人,提供了重要的现代诠释。
