清代思想史上的诸子学

清代学者对子书的校勘、注释不完全排除义理,而对诸子地位的尊贬、诸子学说的阐发,更是思想史的重要内容。从清初相对于理学的异端,到少数乾嘉学者超越以子证经,进而在晚清经世致用、西学东渐的潮流中彰显价值,发展为"古学复兴"的主体,清代诸子学始终关联时代思潮,成为培育新思想的土壤。

Studies on the Pre-Qin Philosophies of Intellectual History in the Qing Dynasty

Qing scholars had not completely ignored the meanings and principles of pre-Qin thinkers’works,while fo-cusing on collating and annotating them.Evaluating those pre-Qin thinkers’status and elaborating their thoughts occupied an important place in Qing intellectual history.Compared with Neo-Confucianism,pre-Qin non-Confucian schools of thoughts were still the heterodoxy in the early Qing,but in the mid-Qing,several scholars went beyond using pre-Qin philosophical works to prove Confucian classics.Further,the revival of pre-Qin non-Confucian of thoughts emerged with the new trend of Confucian statecraft and western learning in the late Qing.Moreover,pre-Qin schools of thoughts became the mainstream of the revival of ancient learning.Therefore the studies of pre -Qin philosophical works were always adapted to the historical changes as well as pregnant with new ideas.
