“述而不作”的传统文化内涵论析

An Analysis of the Connotation of Narration without creation in Traditional Culture

"述而不作",是中国古代重要的著述思想,意为"继承圣人之事业,而不改王道之业"。在这一思想影响下的历代文人进行创作之时,注重传承传统文化。但在封建时代下将创作这一行为神圣化,有着"立言为公"的思想意识,使"作"具有保守性色彩。这一著述观念对当代文化建设也有一定的启示意义。

"Narration without creation"is an important writing ideology in ancient China,which means"inheriting the cause of the saints,not changing the industry of the king."At the time of the creation of the literati under the influence of this idea,emphasis was placed on the inheritance of traditional culture.However,in the feudal era,the act of creation was sanctified,and the ideology of"speaking for the public"has a conservative color.This concept of writing also has certain enlightenment significance for the construction of contemporary culture.
