Research On Wang Jin's Confucian History View

In order to learn Confucianism and Buddhism,Wang Jin had the ambition of governing the world and helping the people.Wang Jin’s learning is mainly concentrated in his book "Wang Zi’s Two Records and Three Records ",which is the original purpose of the theory,and "San Record" is the work of governing the world and helping the people.Although the academic circles have a preliminary interpretation of Wang Jin’s theory,there is still a lot of space for the study of Wang Jin.This paper will systematically and comprehensively study Wang Jin’s view on the history of Confucianism,accurately grasp Wang Jin’s evaluation of many figures in pre-Qin Confucianism and Song Ming Confucianism,and expand and refine the research content of Qian Jia academic thoughts.The paper is divided into five parts: the first part is to introduce Wang Jin’s life story and knowledge.The second part is to explain how Wang Jin understood the thoughts of Mencius and Xunzi and his evaluation of them,and set so as to tell the world "Zhun Meng" and "Sheng Xun" as the foundation of governing the world.The third part focuses on the interpretation of Wang Jin’s exposition of Lu Jiuyuan,Wang Yangming and Zhu Xi’s thoughts.He first distinguishes Lu Jiuyuan,Wang Yangming from Buddhism,then discusses the relationship between Lu Jiuyuan,Wang Yangming and Zhu Xi’s thoughts,and then states that Zhu Xi’s theory of Ge Wu is the standard of sage learning.The fourth part focuses on Wang Jin’s comments on Wang Tong and Chen Liang’s thoughts.He describes the way of governing the world with Wang Tong’s middle theory,and discusses the theory of governing the world according to Chen Liang’s praise for the rule of Han and Tang Dynasties.Because of the orthodoxy of Confucianism,he respects Zhu Xi to be different from Wang Tong and Chen Liang.The fifth part summarizes that Wang Jin takes "unity of body and function" as the key point of governing the world,establishes "Confucius’ Dao is great,Zhu Zi’s Dao is respected" as the academic criterion,and advocates the open academic view of "no gateway".Wang Jin’s view of the history of Confucianism is more tolerant than that of the Confucian orthodoxy in Song Dynasty.Besides the lineage of the Confucian orthodoxy,Wang Jin also affirmed the status of Xunzi,Wang Tong,Chen Liang and Lu Wang in the history of Confucianism.
