与儒学复兴"第四次浪潮"的对话——兼评鲁迅研究界"集体失语"现象

近年来,儒学掀起了“第四次浪潮”,鲁迅研究界对此几乎没有什么反应,但实际上两者之间很需要作平等的交流和对话。如果用主流话语的“先进文化”概念来品评和衡量“儒家文化”,就能对儒家的“第四次浪潮”做出科学的评价:历史上的“儒学”固然有它的价值,但后来渐渐地落伍了,它统治中国思想文化两千年,最终让中华民族落后于西方列强几百年,所以“儒学”在现代社会已经不属于“先进文化”的范畴,不能对社会的进步起到推动作用,“儒学复兴论”也不可能在民众中引起反响。

A Dialog with the "Fourth Wave" of Confucianism

Though the past few years saw the "Fourth Wave" of Confucianism,researchers in the realm of Lu Xun studies gave hardly any response.A dialog between the two is badly needed,and as equals.If interpreted from the perspective of advanced culture,an objective evaluation of Confucianism is quite likely.Historically,Confucianism had its rises and falls,and had its own days.It had dominated the Chinese culture for over two thousand years and China hundreds of years behind the Western powers.Confucianism is not the advanced culture any longer,therefore,it is quite unlikely for Confucianism to push the Chinese society forward,nor is it possible for it to get a strong response from among the Chinese people.
