From The Main Points Of Logic To See The Logical Thoughts Of Zhang Shizhao

In the late19th century and early20th century, Yan Fu’s translation of A System of Logic and Primers of Logic, opened the climax of transport about the western logic in our country. The main traditional logic which contained Aristotle’s deductive logic and Mill’s inductive logic, have been translated and introduced into our country. In this case, some scholars agreed with the point of Japanese scholars who said "east Asia have no logic", think that the ancient of China have no logic. According to this tendency, in the remark of The Main Points of Logic, Zhang Shizhao have very opening proposed that "the logic of the name, up in Europe, but the logic,the word has", played a role awaken the deaf.But so far, few scholars statement the logic view of Zhang Shizhao, In other words, what does Zhang Shizhao understand the logic. This paper try to according to his book The Main Points of Logic, draw the outline of Zhang Shizhao’s logic view, analysis Zhang Shizhao is in what sense think logic is all mankind, and in what sense that ancient Chinese logic have its particularity side.This paper is divided into four parts altogether. The first part is the introduction about Zhang Shizhao, togather with the writing background and guiding ideology about The Main Points of Logic. As a legend character who acrossed the three stages which are the late Qing dynasty, the republic of China and the republic, Zhang Shizhao not only life experience abundant, also works etc. Body. The essay of Liu Zongyuan has deeply impact on Zhang Shizhao’s life, the writing background introduction, can let us from the overall to grasp Zhang Shizhao’s logic thinking.The second part is the logic view of Zhang Shizhao. This chapter trying to according the "Name"and "Set circumscription" two chapters, together with the discussion about traditional logic problems, to clear how does Zhang Shizhao to understand the logic. Zhang Shizhao strongly advocated that "Logic" should translated into "LuoJi", has its sense. Analysis the expound of Zhang Shizhao about the logic research object and scope, and the discussion about some problems of traditional logic, can helps us to further understand what does the logic in Zhang Shizhao’s eyes.The third part is to evaluate the research methods of Zhang Shizhao. His book, The Main Points of Logic, in the guide of "use European logic as longitude, use the ancient Chinese logic as latitude ", through detailed comparison, then demonstrates that the ancient Chinese also have logic. This research methods which more include analyzing, Although the benefit is that can found the similar historical data of the traditional logic between ancient China and the West, but is prone to the phenomenon of the far-fetched, mechanical analogy.

Especially, in the process of Chinese and western logic compare, he has more aware the discord side between them. Boldly put forward that "this science should mix the China and the West, open up the other way", for the logic research provides a new idea.
