摘要
作为轴心时代的两大思想家,古希腊的柏拉图(公元前428-前348年)和中国的庄子(公元前369-前286年)都十分关注普遍的人类生存状况,他们将自我修养作为切入点,苦苦探索通向智慧人生的路径。在他们各自提出的诸多路径中,最发人深省的或许当数两段寓说:一则是柏拉图著名的'美之阶梯'寓说,象征着对至高哲思人生和神性智慧的追求;另一则是庄子的'游心闻道'寓说,讲述了道之获得与精神自由及人格独立的关系。
Being two ancient thinkers living in the axial period,both Plato(428-348 BC)from Hellas and Zhuangzi(369-286 BC)from China are preoccupied with the human condition in general,and engaged in the search of the good life through self-cultivation in particular.They have offered many interesting alternatives among which two allegorical descriptions turn out to be more appealing to my reconsideration:one is renowned as the beauty ladder in pursuit of the most contemplative life and divine wisdom,and the other as the mind excursion for the attainment of the Dao related to the spiritual freedom and independent personality.
