儒家哲学论证的理性与逻辑

Rationality and Logic of Confucian Philosophy Dialectics

儒家哲学论证是一种建立在自然语言论证基础上的哲学论证,其理性不是纯粹理性而是实践理性,且其逻辑也并不是十分重视追求西方式的线性推理或形式推演的理论逻辑,而是追求一种从问题求解和实践论证需要出发的工作逻辑。儒家哲学论证实质上是一种模式型论证,它并不满足于从理智上接受符合形式推论或纯客观的认知,而更重要的是讲究"合乎情理",换句话说,既要诉诸理性论证,又要诉诸生命体验,以满足情感需要和价值期待,进而巧妙地融合理性的认知与生命的情感体验,确定人生的方向和价值选择。这种论证模式不是线性推理所构建的命题证明系统,而是融知、情、意于一体的"情理论道"的论证模式。

Confucian philosophy argument is based on natural language argument of practical rationality instead of pure rationality, with whose logic more of a work-based logic satisfying needs of problem solving and practical demonstration rather than a theoretical logic pursuing western linear reasoning or form deduction. Confucian philosophy argument is actually a model demonstration, not confined to the cognition of form deduction or pure objectiveness and it goes further to be reasonable. In other words, it resorts to not only rational argument but also life ex- periences to meet emotional needs and value expectation. It combines rational cognition with life emotional experience to determine the direction and value of life. Thus, this mode of argument is not a proving procedure constructed by linear reasoning, but an emotional and rational argument mode combining cognition, emotion and understanding.
