袁宏道美学思想的转变与儒释道精神的循环

袁宏道后期美学思想与前期差别很大，前期主要是禅道思想的融合，而后期则基本上是儒道思想的结合。这种转变的发生，既有当时社会形势的变化等外在原因，但更主要的是袁氏思想发展的内在必然。综观袁宏道美学思想发展的全过程，可以看出，它始终没有突破传统的儒释道精神的框架，并不具有近代式的启蒙意义。

Transformation of YUAN Hong-dao's Aesthetic Thought & Cycle of Confucian, Taoist and Buddhist Philosophy

There is a marked difference between YUAN Hong-dao's aesthetic thinking of the later stage and of the earlier stage, the former is combined by the Chan sect philosophy with the Taoist philosophy while the latter is combined by the Confucian philosophy with the Taoist philosophy. The transformation had its external factor such as the change of the social situation at that time, however, the logic of YUAN's thinking was its principal factor. Making a general survey of YUAN Hong-dao' aesthetic thinking we can reach a conclusion that it had never break through the traditional framework for the Confucian, Taoist and Buddhist philosophy and it had not modern significance similar to the Enlightenment.
