孔子“知”论及其现代价值

Confucius' Theory of "Knowing" and Its Modern Value

“知”在孔子思想体系中具有重要的地位和作用。孔子“知”论立足于现实社会的感性实践 ,高扬了人的主体意识 ;坚持“天命”与“人事”的统一 ,把以“仁”为核心的主观能动性的发挥置于物质世界 (天 )所具有的客观必然性 (命 )的基础之上 ;坚持以“仁”为体 ,以“知”为用 ,主张仁知合一的道德理想主义。

Knowing' has an important position and role in Confucius' system of thought. Based on the sensible practice of real society, the theory of 'knowing' carries forward the subject consciousness, persists in the unity of fate and human efforts; put the exertion of subjective positivity centered around 'Ren' on the ground of the objective necessity possessed by material world; persistently perceives 'Ren' as form and 'Knowing' as content and claims for the moral idealism of the unity of 'Ren' and 'Knowing'.
