《漆雕子》蠡测

A Tentative Study on “Qidiaozi”

漆雕启,为“孔门七十二贤”之一,为一个儒者兼游侠的形象,是漆雕氏门派的开山之祖。《漆雕子》内容的写定者是漆雕启的后人,或是后代,或是后学。《漆雕子》的内容中应该有漆雕启关于《尚书》学、言《礼》的言论,关于性的理论,大概与孔子所论述“上智与下愚不移”相反,认为人性由天定,虽然有善有恶,但善恶受周边环境影响,由此强调圣贤道德教化的重要作用。

Qidiao Qi,one of the “seventy-two wise men of Confucius”,is the image of a Confucian and a ranger,and is the founder of Qidiao School. The writer who wrote the content of “Qidiaozi” are the descendants or successors of Qidiao Qi. In “Qidiaozi”,there should be the remarks of Qidiao Qi about the study of “Shangshu” and “Rites”,as well as the theory on sex,which are probably contrary to Confucius’ theory of “top wisdom and bottom stupidity do not change”. He thinks that human nature is destined,and although there are good and evil,good and evil are affected by the surrounding environment,thus he emphasizes the importance of moral education by sages.
