紧张而丰富的心灵:林同济思想研究

A Rich Mind in Tension: An Insight into Lin Tongji's Ideas

在现代中国思想史上 ,林同济作为战国策派的重要成员 ,是以极端民族主义者的形象出现的。事实上 ,在其一生的心路历程中 ,林同济体现出三种境界 :国的境界、力的境界和宇宙的境界。从竞争的民族主义到尼采式的战士式人格 ,最后回归于宇宙的“天人合一” ,在他身上 ,我们看到的是一个中国知识分子丰富而紧张的心灵 :世俗与神圣的错位、“天”与“地”的紧张、功利与价值的冲突 ,这一切都构成了林同济异常复杂的内心世界。这证明了民族主义并非中国知识分子的终极价值和关怀所在。

In Chinese intellectual history, Lin Tongji, one of the key members of the Zhanguo Ce (“Warring States”) school, has long been seen as a radical nationalist. However, he developed his ideas “three dimensionally,” in terms of nation, power and universe. An aggressive nationalist, a Nietzschean fighter, and an advocate of the “unity of man and heaven,” Lin displays a mind that was both rich and in tension between the secular and the sacred, “Heaven” and “Earth,” the utilitarian and the spiritual. All this helped make up Lins extremely complex mental world, proving that nationalism is by no means the inevitable ultimate concern of Chinese intellectuals.
