A Philological Research On ZhuQianzhi’s Laozi JiaoShi

Zhu Qianzhi is a famous philosopher and historian in China.At present,the academic circles mainly focus on the achievements of his philosophical thought.Zhu Qianzhi has two major characteristics in academic research: one is versatile and varied in learning ways;the other is pioneering and able to keep up with the trend of The Times.Zhu Qianzhi has been engaged in academic research for more than 50 years and has written more than 40 monographs,covering philosophy,history,literature,religion and many other fields.He is known as an "encyclopedic scholar".Taking Zhu Qianzhi’s Laozi Jiao Shi as the main research object,this paper adopts related methods of philology to explore the features of emendation and annotation of Laozi Jiao ShiThis paper is mainly divided into four parts.The first part elaborates Zhu Qianzhi’s academic history and thoughts,as well as the background of the book Laozi Jiaoshi.Zhu Qianzhi’s academic research has turned many times in his life.In the field of his philosophical history and historical materials research,the text "Lao zi" came into his academic field of vision again and became an important part of his historical materials research.Laozi Jiaoshi is the research result of this period.The second part mainly analyzes the edition of Laozi adopted in the Laozi Jiao Shi.First of all,Zhu Qianzhi proposed that the biographies of Laozi can be divided into two major circulation systems: the folk system and the literati system,and proposed an important point of view: the folk system is superior to the literati system.Secondly,Zhu Qianzhi used the emendation edition base for the Jinglong second year of the Tao Te Ching(The Book of Tao and Teh)Stelae,the main reasons are three: one is the original Jinglong Stelae is still there,to avoid other versions in the copy of the problem of corruption;The second is that Jinglong Stelae belongs to the northern version of the folk system,which is closer to the ancient version of Laozi than the literati system.Three for the Jinglong Stelae earlier than the Yuzhuben from Tang Xuanzong,this has not been widely issued by the Yuzhuben of the world.In addition,in the choice of other participants in the edition,Zhu Qianzhi focused on the Dun-Huang collection of Laozi,Dun-Huang collection of Laozi the tang handwritten copy,although its fault lost incomplete,but more close to the ancient appearance of the other edition.The third part mainly focuses on Zhu Qianzhi’s interpretation of Laozi from three perspectives: emendation,annotation and explanation.Zhu Qianzhi has three characteristics in the emendation.First,he further perfected and supplemented the emendation achievements of his predecessors.If necessary,he would write down the emendation records for the places that had not been revised by his predecessors.Secondly,it corrects and distinguishes the part worth discussing in the former emendation achievements.Finally,the monument to the fault lost place only to "(?)" instead of the original monument.In the annotation,Zhu Qianzhi used phonology,philology knowledge,and combined with other book materials to annotate the text.In the process of quoting the old notes of predecessors,Zhu Qianzhi paid attention to refuting its unreasonable part,rigorous scholarship does not accept all according to the list.In the part of the phonology of Laozi Jiao Shi,Zhu Qianzhi focused on the relationship between the Chu dialect and the text of Laozi,and applied it to the exegesis to make the meaning of the words more clear and clear.The fourth part focuses on Zhu Qianzhi’s interpretation of Laozi’s philosophy reflected in Laozi Jiao Shi,and he has his own understanding of the interpretation of Laozi’s theory.He uses the western philosophy of China’s materialist dialectics,the unity of contradictions and other viewpoints to interpret Laozi’s philosophy,which has certain originality.In addition,zhu qianzhi also has some refutation to the previous views on lao-tzu’s interpretation,and thinks that the views of scholars such as Song Xiangfeng and Gao heng are worth discussing.Overall,the study of ancient literature without comparing the version,emendation and exegesis,the present and the ancients on knowledge acquisition and the method,there are great differences of Zhu can draw experience from and more ancient scholars in the Qing dynasty,and introduced from modem western academic method,and suggested the "Lao zi",to interpret Laozi philosophy,reflects the solid literature suggested his ability and profound philosophical foundation of basic skills and open academic field of vision.
