从性情论到性理论——程朱理学对原始儒家性情关系的诠释与重构

A Shift from Emotion to Reason,the Origin of Human Nature——Cheng&Zhu’s Neo-Confucianism’s Interpretation and Reconstruction of the Relationship between Human Nature and Emotion of Primitive Confucianism

先秦儒家的心性论以气本论的宇宙观为基础,其中的性情关系是一本而非二本,二者并不存在形上形下之分,亦不存在异质异层的区别,情作为道的初始而备受重视。但随着理学本体论建构的推进,气本论的宇宙观被理本论的本体论所取代,性情关系也分别被划入形而上和形而下的不同存有层次而成为异质异层的存在,情也沦为理学复性工夫的主要障碍。在经典诠释过程中,儒家哲学理念经历了类似于西方哲学从存在论到形而上学的转变,而儒家的工夫论也由此转向新的形态。

The theory of human heart-mind and nature of pre-Qin Confucianism draws from the cosmology of Qi-based theory in which human nature and emotion bear a relation of monism rather than dualism-there is not a division between metaphysics and metaphysics,and a difference in nature and hierarchy;emotion,as the origin of Tao,has attracted much attention.However,with the advancement of the construction of Neo-Confucianism ontology,the cosmology based on Qi was replaced by the ontology based on reason:human nature and emotion was divided into metaphysics and metaphysics,and fell into different characters and layers and emotion became the main obstacle to reverting to the original nature.Confucian philosophy,in interpreting the classics,has experienced a transformation similar to western philosophy from ontology to metaphysics,and Confucian Gongfu(self cultivation exercises)Theory has turned to a new form.
