焦循《孟子正义》以易释孟平议

焦循重视经义的贯通，是他得以形成以易释孟思想体系的基础。焦循《孟子正义》以易释孟，突出体现在他以《易》学思想对孟子所论的“道＂、“性善＂、“经权＂等思想概念的诠释上。焦循对孟子思想的诠释，使得孟学呈现易学化色彩，拓宽并深化了后人对孟子思想的理解。然而其中也有牵强之处，偏离了孟子本意。焦循以易释孟背后的依据，应源于他对理学的抵触，反对空疏，试图寻求一条新的途径来诠释《孟子》，尤其体现在他以（（易））学之“通变”思想来诠释孟子的“性善’论上。

Dissusion on JIAO xun MengziZhengyi Explanation of Mencius Thought Using Yi

JIAO xun attached importance to the Confucian classics argumentation, which made the foundation of his explanation of Mencius thought using I0＂. In his annotated bookMengziZhengyi, he explained the con- ception such as Dao, goodness of human nature, jingquan using Yi thought. JIAO xun＇s explanation made Mencius thought presenting element of Yi, broadening and deepening the descendants understanding of Men- cius thought. However his explanation was a little farfetched and deviated from Mencius original idea. That is because JIAO xun fight against Neo-Confucianism of Song Dynasty and objected empty and shallow. He tried to find a new way to explain Mencius, which especially embodied in his explanation of the theory of original goodness of human nature using Tong bian thought of Yi.
