A new interpretation of Confucianism: The interpretation of Lunyu as a text of philosophical hermeneutics

Abstract

Communicating with Confucius based on our own hermeneutical context, and reading the Analects as a text of philosophical hermeneutics, it can be concluded that as an epochal thinker, the contribution of Confucius’ thought is that it initiated a humanistic moral ideal with cultural upbringing as its core. Based on this consciousness of humanistic moral ideal, Confucius thought and dealt positively with the human existential plight and social political problems that he faced during his own time, and his thought is more creative than conservative.

摘要

基于我们自身的解释学情境来展开与孔子的思想对话, 视《论语》为一个哲学解释学的文本而予以解读, 可以看出?作为一个划时代的思想家, 孔子的思想贡献主要是开创了一种以文明教养为核心的人文道德理念。 在这一人文道德理念的自觉意识的根基之上, 孔子积极地思考和应对他所面对的时代性的人类生存困境与社会政治难题, 而其思想既具有保守性, 更富有创新性。
