钱穆的宗教观与中西文化比较研究

Qian Mu's Religious Views and the Comparison of Chinese and Western Cultures

自明末清初中西方文化传统首次在信仰与价值层面相遇与冲突以来,"中国有没有宗教""中西文化的异同何在"这两个相关联的问题便一直困惑着中西方学术界。文章试以钱穆为例,主要依据其中、晚年论著里的思想观点,一方面力图阐释"以宗教观为切入点"来展开中西文化比较的重要学术意义,另一方面则力求发现值得日后深入研讨的问题意识。

Since the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the first encountering and conflict of belief and value of Chi- nese and western cultural traditions, Chinese and western academia were bewildered by the co-related questions of ＂whether China had religion＂ and ＂what were the differences of Chinese and western cultures＂. In this article, the author takes Qian Mu as an example, mainly on the basis of the points in his late works, tries to explain the ＂starting point of religious re- view＂ to expand the important academic significance of the comparison between Chinese and western cultures, as well as to find the problem consciousness worthy of being discussed in-depth.
