略论“荆公新学”之“新”

宋学张扬士大夫的独立个性与《孟子》在北宋熙宁年间的升格运动密切相关,而王安石变法则标志着《孟子》作为国家意识形态的核心思想,开始受到皇帝和多数士大夫的敬慕与青睐。特别是王安石把他的理论重心置于对时政问题的把握和审视,以经学推动变法,凸显了"荆公新学"的致用特征。于是,《三经新义》就成为其"托古"思维与施行"少年新进"策略两者之间互动的时代产物。

On the Novelty of "Wang Anshi's New Learning"

The pursuit of scholarly independence and individuality in the academic circle of Song Dynasty was highly related to the upgrading position of Mencius in the Xining period.And Wang Anshi’s reformation was a sign that Mencius as the core theory of national ideologies received initial admiration and appreciation from the Emperor and feudal scholars.Wang’s theoretical focus on current politics and his use of academic doctrines in propelling reformation highlight the practical nature of his "New Learning".Therefore’ his work Sanjing Xinyi(A New Interpretation of Three Classics) was an outcome of the interaction between the "ancient-doctrine-based" thoughts and the "new and radical" strategies at that time.
