孔子孟子的君子观与新时代的廉君子修养

The Gentleman View of Confucius and Mencius and the Cultivation of Upright Gentleman in New Age

儒家关于君子人格的思想传统源自孔子和孟子。孔子论君子主要强调其"道德意义",并以此来阐述"君子怀德"的内容、实践以及实现途径。孟子继承孔子的君子观,但在谈到君子道德本性时,又从君子与禽兽的区别、与常人的不同、与伪君子的不同等方面扩展了对君子内涵的认识。"道德意义"的君子形象,寄托了先秦儒家树立起来的理想人格,君子文化在汉代以后的中国封建社会国家意识形态领域和实践领域得到继承和发扬。当下,探讨孔子孟子关于"道德意义"的君子观,有利于发现其君子内涵与君子人格的当代意义,为我们在新时代践行社会主义核心价值观,端正当代人的价值取向以及塑造廉洁高尚的君子人格提供有益的启迪。
