人虽有限而可无限——牟宗三对康德“人是有限的理性存在”命题的超越

将康德“人是有限的理性存在”命题分成“人是有限的”、“上帝是无限的”、“上帝是理性所设定”以及“理性是人的理性”四个方面来理解即发现“理性无法理解自己”的矛盾。牟宗三借用中国传统哲学的资源，为化解这个矛盾而论证了“人虽有限而可无限”的命题。新命题的提出说明了物自身的无限性及价值意味，从而为建立道德形而上学准备了条件。

Men are Finite and Infinite——Mou Zongshan's Surmounting of Kant's Preposition of "Men are Finite and Rational Existence"

By dividing Kant's preposition of "Men are Finite and Rational Existence" into four parts,Mou Zongshan finds the contradiction in it.These four parts are "Men are finite","God is infinite","God is rationally determined",and "Ration is men's ration",and the contradiction is that "Ration can not comprehend itself".Mou,depending on the source of traditional Chinese philosophy,demonstrates that "Men are finite and infinite" to solute the contradiction.The new preposition presents the infiniteness within the object itself as well as its significance,preparing the condition for the establishment of moral metaphysics.
