朱熹与白鹿洞书院的复兴(1179-1181)

本文讨论朱熹任南康军知军期间兴复白鹿洞书院的活动。认为单从修复的成就看,影响相对很小,它是南宋书院发展中一个很重要也很引人注目的部分,但它不论是作为新儒家的书院或是北宋的书院,都绝对没有起到领头的作用。从长远看,白鹿洞书院修复之所以声誉巨大,更多的要归功于象征意义而不是历史,因为是朱熹的介入以及他的《教条》才使得它成为新儒学书院的一个有力象征。

Zhu Xi and the Revival of Bailudong Academy

This paper discusses Zhu Xi's activities when he was the governor in Nankang State, taking the view that influence was comparatively small, from the single achievement of restoration, which was a very important and outstanding section in South Song academy development. But it did not by any means take the leading role either as the Neo-Confucian academy or North Song academy. From the long run, the fame of Bailudong Academy's restoration was so great. Its symbolic meaning was greater than history itself, because it's Zhu Xi's intervention and his Creed that made it a powerful symbol of the Neo-Confucian academy.
