关于朝鲜前期儒学思想分化与党争起源

The Differentiation of Confucianism in Early Joseon Dynasty and the Causes of Partisanship and Faction

朝鲜前期儒学思想的发展、演变与士林政治息息相关,士林派中多有儒学思想家与著名学者,其早期分裂使儒学不可避免地走向了分化,在不同学说进行论辩的基础上,形成了多个学派,并为各政治派系分别推崇。儒学思想分化提供的理论基础,使朝鲜党争在起源后迅速呈现出政治与理论结合的特点,不同学派主张中的差异,既成为各方相互打击的重要内容,又被作为政敌间相互否定的基本依据。可以说,朝鲜前期儒学思想的分化既对党争的出现起到了重要的催化作用,也推动党争由初期阶段快速走上了持续进行、矛盾尖锐、斗争深化的阶段,对党争的起源与早期发展具有决定性影响。

The development and evolution of Confucianism in the early Joseon Dynasty were closely related to the scholar-bureaucrat politics. The split-up of those famous thinkers and scholars resulted in the differentiation of Confucianism. Many schools formed on the basis of different theoretical argumentation, which provided the warring factions with evidence to fight against and negate each other. The differentiation of Confucianism had a decisive influence on the emergence of the partisanship and faction in the early Joseon Dynasty. It played a catalytic role to make the confrontation among various factions continuous, sharp and deep.
