从清代汉宋关系看今文经学的兴起

Looking at the Rise of New Text Studies in Light of the Relationship between the Han and Song Schools

乾嘉汉学鼎盛之时 ,汉宋对峙更加凸显 ,但因寻求义理的内在需要 ,其中又滋长着调融宋学的潜流。汉、宋之学陷入困境 ,士人乃日益从今文经发掘“微言大义” ,从而落实由考据以求义理的主旨。今文经学因之兴起 ,并在晚清经世致用及汉学义理化趋向中发展起来。

the heyday of the Han school of textual studies, during the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods, the confrontation between the Han and Song schools became more obvious. However, because of the inherent requirements of seeking universal truths, there was a growing undercurrent of mixing Song school scholarship into Han school studies. The Han and Song schools landed in a difficult situation, so intellectuals began to explore New Text 'subtle words with profound meanings' in order to pursue the search for universal truths by textual research. New Text studies grew accordingly, and developed with the late Qing trends towards practical statecraft scholarship and Han School studies of universal truths.
