On the Schools of Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties
Abstract
Neo-Confucianism during the Chinese philosophy of thought is a very important part, of which the sub-system for the issue of Neo-Confucianism, has been the focus of discussion in today's academia, of which there are two lines that said three-line, a series that argument, this paper is the core of this problem, Neo-sub-systems to rethink the issue. Neo-academic first proposed generally divided into two lines with the Lu-Wang's argument can not do real academic and moral principles of the whole; then put forward three lines of that for Mr. Mou rethink that most three-line sub-Neo can be truth points clear teachings of Neo-Confucianism. Finally, analysis of Lao Sze-kwong raised a series of three types as well as scholars from mainland China that used to use the three theory of the problem, and pointed out that Mr. Mou said the omnibus three-line "vertical consistent system "and" horizontal photo system ", both self-discipline and discipline, so for us to Neo-sub-systems for the most suitable for the theory. Therefore, for this theory from five to get to the bottom: a, Lim Guan Luo Min, says nothing argumentation system; Second, the Neo-Lu Wang said the two sub-systems are incomplete; three, three-line Neo said introspection; Fourth, a series of three types that the problem; five, three on the Liming of view. Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties was an integral part of Chinese philosophy, whose different schools are the focus of the academia nowadays while it is still being argued whether there are two schools, three schools, or just one school that consists of three styles. All the above is the center of this paper from which to re-consider the schools of Neo-Confucianism. First, we point out that the two-school doctrine is neither academically truthful nor theoretically complete. And we further re-consider Mo Zong-san's three-school doctrine, which we assume can clarify the theoretical truth about Neo-Confucianism. Finally, we analyze the problems with Lao Sze-kwang's doctrine about one school of three styles as well as point out how Mo Zong-san's three-school doctrine integrates "longitudinal studies" and "transversal studies" - including both self-discipline and external supervision - and therefore is our most appropriate theory about the schools of Neo-Confucianism. Therefore this paper is to explore the topic through five aspects: first, the Lianluo Guanmin's doctrine is not concerned with theoretical systems; second, the two-school doctrine is incomplete; third, a reflection on the three schools of Neo-Confucianism; fourth, the doctrine about one school consisting of three styles; and fifth, the three-school doctrine held by scholars in mainland China
