The Turning-into-life Trend In Huanggan's Thought Of Rites

There has been a misunderstanding to the Song Dynasty Rite,which relatived to the Han and Tang Dynasties,that Song Dynasty Rite is declining.But if we put the Song Dynasty Rite in deep research,we will find that compared with the previous generations,,the Song Dynasty Rite had made great progress,just because of the flourish of Neo Confucianism in Song Dynasty,the light of Song Rite is hidden."Yilijingzhuantongjie" was a summary of the rite of previous generations,The Rite is a practical knowledge,if the theory can not be implemented,the theory is nothing,we can say,that the secularization of rite in Song Dynasty is a revolutionary progress."Turning essence into Rite" and "secularization of Rite " are the two features of the Song Dynasty Rite,attribted to the characteristics of the times of Song Dynasty.The rise of the civilian landowners and the decline of the gentry landlords is the fundamental reason for it,the social transformation is presented for a new culture,while also providing the majority of the talent base.In the field of imperial examination,civilian landowners had taken charge in the state affairs,which provides great power to guarantee the emergence and development of new forms of thought.On the other hand,Song Dynasty social crisis is still grim,the alien aggression and the domestic conflicts,is a harsh peoblem to the domestic of the country.the scholars had a great responsibility to the country.After Xi Ning reformation,Confucianism of the Song Dynasty gradually realized,relying solely on top-down political reform is unable to achieve the goal of wealthy and powerful,they must turn into Public life reforming.The change of custom had become a realistic demand,it was necessary to turn rite into a modern form.Besides,the development of transportation industry and the improvement of papermaking technology,these helped the spreading of thoughts in Song Dynasty and provides an important technical support,especially the development of the printing industry,it made books getable for the Civilian."Yilijingzhuantongjie" is the greatest achievement of ritual of Song Dynasty,Zhu Xi combined Yili,lIJI and Zhouli into one coalition.In the preparation process,HuangGan was always an important assistant,before the death of Zhu Xi,the"Yilijinghzhuantongjie" had completed several parts,the remaining" funeral "and"cult" was finished by HuangGan 20 years later.Like Zhu Xi,Huang Gan showed the feature of "Turning essence into Rite",in his works,we can see the characteristics of the HuangGan.At the same time,Huang Gan showed afeature of " secularization of Rite".In order to achieve the purpose of secularization,it is necessary to turn the Rite into a new form,in his writting,HuangGan had always paid attention to the operability of the new Rite.HuangGan always adhere to the principle of "essence is more important than form",he put the essence in the first place.Besides,HuangGan always practice the Rite in his life.because he wanted to make Rite more popular in social life,so that people will be happy to practice it too.And he made great effort to it.With Huang Gan's unremitting efforts,the promotion of secularization had made great achievements,which Zhu Xi could not achieve.HuangGan.had made a tremendous contribution to the development of Rite of Song Dynasty,In the history of China's thoughts of Rite,Huanggan is a great scholar that can not be ignored.
