论西汉宗室对儒学的接受与践行

The Acceptance and Practices of the Imperial Clan of the Western Han Dynasty to Confucianism

随着汉武帝"罢黜百家,独尊儒术"政策的推行,西汉宗室也开始逐渐接受儒学的洗礼。既有刘交、刘向、刘德等人束身向学、积极研习儒术,但更多的是在相、傅的教导和朝廷的提倡下被动接受儒家教育。虽然西汉宗室上层普遍接触过儒家文化,但对儒家伦理纲常的践行却不如意。这当与诸侯王年幼就国、缺乏系统教育,以及西汉中央对地方王侯的防范和打击有关。

With the implementation of Emperor Hanwu＇s policy of＂proscribing all non-Confucian schools of thought and espousing Confucianism as the orthodox state ideology＂, the imperial clan of the Western Han Dynasty began to accept the baptism of Confucianism. People like Liu Jiao and Liu De were active in pursuing Confucianism, while many more people were made to accept Confucian education through the instructions of ministers and masters. Although the upper class of the imperial family had access to Confucian culture, the practices of Confucian ethic cardinal guides were unsatisfactory,which had much to do with the accession of the prince at a young age, a lack of systematic education as well as the guard and attack of the central government against local vassals.
