戴凤仪与《郭山庙志》——兼论理学对民间信仰的态度与改造

Dai Fengyi and Guoshan Temple Gazetteer: a Discussion on Neo-Confucianism's Attitude and Transformation on Popular Religion

《郭山庙志》是清末福建南安著名理学家戴凤仪为家乡广泽尊王祖殿撰写的一本庙志。透过对《郭山庙志》的文本解读,可以发现戴凤仪撰写该志并不是为了宣扬神迹,而是为了改造民间信仰,使改造后的广泽尊王信仰符合理学规范,使之教化百姓和传播理学思想。宋明理学"敬鬼神辅政教"的教化理念对民间信仰的形式与内容均产生了巨大的影响。

Guoshan Temple Gazetteer is written by Dai Fengyi,a well-known Neo-confucianist at the end of Qing Dynasty in Nan'an,Fujian. By analyzing the book,it shows that Dai's purpose is not to propagate the power of the Guangze God( 广泽尊王) but to transform the belief,making it accord with New-confucianism,trying to moralize local people and spread New-confucianism. The concept of ' respecting the ghosts and gods to assist the politics and religion',in fact,greatly changes both the form and the content of popular religion.
