“子思之儒”著述辨正

The Argument of the works in“Zi Si's School”

判定"子思之儒"著述时,应当以子思为坐标;既不能把相关作品归于子思一人之手,也不能笼统地视为该学派的集体创作;在出土文献及其形制可以确定的前提下,应当把与之相关的文献确定为"子思之儒"的作品;与"子思之儒"主体思想相合的《性自命出》等出土文献可认定为"子思之儒"的作品;不能把明显作伪的材料当作"子思之儒"的作品。据此,"子思之儒"的著述应当包括《礼记》四篇,郭店楚简《五行》《穷达以时》《鲁穆公问子思》《性自命出》《成之闻之》《尊德义》和《六德》,以及《累德》等见诸传世文献的佚文。子思作《孝经》《大学》等观点,虽为陈说,但并无实据,它们应当出于曾子及其门人弟子之手,并非子思所作。

When judging the writings of "Zi Si's School", it should be taken as a coordinate of the thoughts; theworks neither can only be attributed to Zi Si, nor can it be regarded as the collective creation of the school; Underthe premise of the excavated documents and its genre can be determined, it can be identified as "Zi Si's School"works with the related literature;if the subject thoughts are orrespond to "Zi Si's School","Nature comes fromdestiny" and other articles can be identified as writings of "Zi Si's School"; cannot get the obvious false material aswritings of "Zi Si's School". According to this, the writings of "Zi Si's School" should include the four chapters ofThe Book of Rites,The Five Elements,Qiongdayishi,Lu Mugong Questioning Zi Si,Spirit Stems from Fate,Chengzhiwenzhi,Zundeyi and Liude of the Guodian Bamboo Slips even the lost works which the literature could behanded down from ancient times, such as Leide.Although there has been a judgment on which Zi Si wrote The Piety Scripture and The Great Learning in the past,there is no actual evidence. They should be written by Zeng Zi and hisdisciples,rather than Zi Si's works.
