荀子历史观中的圣、道关系探微

On Xun Zi s Historical Conception of“Saint”and“Tao”Research

在荀子的历史观中,圣与道的关系不仅具有逻辑上的一致性,更在不同的历史时期表现出丰富、多元的关系。通过分析制礼之圣与治古之圣、当今之圣及儒与道的关系,可以发现在荀子“道贯”主张的背后,还存在荀子对“道”之完满在“器”层面损伤的警觉,而维护道在“器”层面上的完满,恰恰是历代圣人、儒者天然的历史担当。

In Xun Zi s view of history,the relationship between the saint and the Tao not only has logical consistency,but also has a rich and diverse relationships in different historical periods.Through the analysis of the relationship between the saint and the road in different historical periods,we can find that Xun Zi is perfect in itself,but in the specific historical context but there are a series of defects.It is the natural historical responsibility for sages and Confucians in different ancient that they should fulfill the requirements of the Tao in the concrete historical practice.
