“科玄论战”与张君劢的现代新儒家风貌

"Controversy between Sciences and Metaphysics" and Zhang Junmai's Philosophy Style as a Modern Confucianism

一生游走于学术与政治的张君劢,是在1923年"科玄论战"中以"一造"之主角的身份跃登现代中国哲坛的。他一出场,便向世人呈露出一位现代新儒家的风貌。他当时所提出的"人生观问题之解决,决非科学所能为力,惟赖诸人类之自身而已"观念,与此前梁漱溟在《东西文化及其哲学》中所提主张完全一致,并都成为其后现代新儒家的共同立场,因而他与梁漱溟共同开启了现代新儒学形成发展的历史序幕。

Zhang Junmai,who has striven in academia and politics throughout the whole life,entered the field of philosophy as a Modern Confucian as the protagonist of“Yi Zao”in the“Controversy between Sciences and Metaphysics”in 1923.His appearance revealed to the world a modern New-Confucian style.He proposed that the solution to the problem of an outlook on life relied on human being ourselves but not on science.This concept is as completely same as the earlier proposal by Liang Shuming in Western Culture and Philosophy.They both became the common stand of the later Modern Confucianism.Therefore,he and Liang Shuming jointly opened the historical prelude of the formation and development of Modern Confucianism.
