论王船山的形而上道德史观

王船山将历史看作气化流行的过程,历史之本体则是气之本真———道之开展的过程,它包括“天道之本然”生成的自然历史和“在人之天道”创化的人文历史。历史首先是单纯的自然历史过程,然后是包容自然历史的人文历史的演变。真正的历史是人类依凭其“凝道生德”的形而上之人文道德自觉创化的人文历史,由此形成了王船山以“全其质”而“备其文”为目标的创化历史观。

On Wang Chuanshan's Historical Viewpoint

Wang Chuanshan regarded history as a course of Qi's transformation flowing and history in itself is the authenticity of Qi,which is the course of Dao's developing,that includes nature history what Tian-Dao spontaneously creates and human history that human being gains cleverness and elegance of the Universe consciously creates.Firstly history is a course of pure nature history,and then it is an evolutionary course of human history including nature history.Wang pointed out that the real history is the human history human being consciously creates depending on human metaphysical Dao-de.So the historical viewpoint of creating transformation is formed,as to which Wang took the completing "Zhi" and having "Wen" as an aim.
