牟宗三对《大学》的诠释——基于以《心体与性体》为中心

On MOU Zong-san's Interpretation of the Great Learning based on Substance of Nature and Substance of Mental States

《大学》出于《礼记》,作于西汉,是传统儒家经典著作之一。以宋明为界,之前《大学》多偏重于礼意,之后多偏重于格致。朱熹擢其为四书之首,熊十力赅其为六经要旨,牟宗三视其格物致知为外求之功,属于儒家别子离宗的横摄系统,是只存有而不活动的静态义,传承了孟子至明道为宗开出"新心学"传统。牟宗三对于《大学》之诠释,鞭辟入里,但也并非无偏无颇。

The Great Learning is from the Book of Rites in the Western Han Dynasty.It is one of the traditional Confucian classics.Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty is a watershed.Before this period,The Great Learning put more emphasis on rite.But after this period more emphasis was put on knowledge.MOU Zong-san inherited the Mencius and opened a new tradition of mind learning.MOU Zong-san's interpretation of The Great Learning is penetrating but also has its shortcomings.
