艾儒略《性学觕述》与耶儒魂性会通

Ai Rulue's Xing Xue Chu Shu and Communication of Jesuits' Theory of Soul and Confucianism Theory of Nature

艾儒略在《性学觕述》中基于其形式因与质料因、灵魂与肉体二元结合的内部构成说,将儒学中天所赋予的性与天主教中天主所赋予的魂会通起来,进而以天主赋性、灵魂救赎论批判了儒家思想中的性气、灵肉一元论,万物一体的目的论,以及乾坤父母说的生成论。艾儒略通过阐释会通不同宗教、学说中核心范畴、概念的方式将儒释道三教的人性论纳入到天主教灵魂肉体说的框架中,虽然不能从根本上消除中西思想在人性论上的分歧,但却揭示了其结构上的共通性。

In Xing Xue Chu Shu, Ai Rulue based on internal composition of binary combination of formal cause and material cause and soul and body, understand thoroughly Confucianism nature endowed by heaven and soul from the lord, and then criticized Confucianism theory of unanimity of body and soul and teleology of whole of everything and generation theory of hexagrams of Qian and Kun according to the nature given by lord and salvation of the soul. Ai Rulue bring Chinese traditional Confucianism and Buddhist and Taoist culture theory of human nature into the framework of Christian theory of soul and body by means of communications of key categories in different religions and theories, although cannot fundamentally eliminate divergences of Chinese and Western theory of human nature, but reveals their anatomically intercommunity.
