二十世紀前八十年華人朱子學研究探討 = A discussion of Chinese studies in Zhu Xi's philosophy in the first 80 years of the 20th century

Abstract

At the early stage of the twentieth century, facing the challenges from western philosophy, many Chinese scholars, in readjusting the perspective and research method, began to have a new exploration on Zhu Xi’s philosophy. They re-specified the research scope and introduced terms in western philosophy to accurately define concepts in Zhu Xi’s theories. This research focuses on the early establishment of the discipline of modern study in Zhu Xi’s philosophy and the framework of Zhu Xi’s theories put forward by several scholars in the first eighty years in the twentieth century. As a review of the foundation of modern study in Zhu Xi’s philosophy, this thesis may offer help on recognizing the direction, the method, the inheritance and the innovation in contemporary studies in Zhu Xi and Neo-Confucianism.
