晚清胶东名儒郑杲及其春秋学初探

The Initial Research on Zheng Gao's Life and His Study of The Spring-and-Autumn Annals

作为晚清胶东学派的核心人物,郑杲学术成就主要集中在春秋学。其治《春秋》,远绍郑玄,笃信三传,以为皆孔子真传,主张兼治而求其合;通过霸道(《左传》)-鲁道(《公羊》)-王道(《穀梁》)体系的构建,将三传的文本差异,归源于三传解经立场取向不同;强调一传之精义,须参合另外二传而得,只有三传合治,才能展现《春秋》完整图景。在晚清公羊学大行其道的背景下,郑杲援清代朴学之法以救今文派之弊,鼓倡《穀梁传》以维持三传间的平衡,从而形成复古而有新意,据今而不激进的平实学风。

As the core of Jiaodong School in late Qing Dynasty,Zheng Gao's academic achievement is focused on the study of The Spring-and-Autumn Annals.He was a disciple of Zheng Xuan,who advocated studying the three commentaries of The Spring-and-Autumn Annals.In the opinion of Zheng Gao,the three commentaries were all handed down from Confucius,their conflicts rooted in disparate positions and tropism.One Commentary needs the other two to make itself complete,and the significance of The Spring-and-Autumn Annals can be never revealed until the three commentaries are integrated.When the study of Gong Yang was unusually prosperous in his time,Zheng used the down-to-earth spirit to defuse the disadvantages of the new Gong Yang School in late Qing Dynasty and advocated Biography of Gu Liang to maintain the balance of the three commentaries,displaying a plain academic style.
