“六家”与“九流”观念研究述论

Research on Genealogy of the pre-Qin Philosophers Constructed by the Scholars of the Han Dynasty

  • 摘要: 六家"与"九流"观念源于汉代学者建构的先秦诸子学术谱系,迄今仍然是认识先秦诸子学术群体的基本参照框架。近代以来学界从概念、方法、新材料等层面不断质疑此框架,多有学者在概念层面,将先秦、秦汉学者所论之"家"理解为现代意义上的"学派",实则难以与"家"的历史含义完全对应;将《汉书·艺文志》视为狭义的"目录学"分类,又低估了其学术史价值。大量新材料的发现,填补了部分先秦学术史的"空白",但却在研究倾向上出现高估出土文献学术史价值的趋势。而新方法的导入,对于先秦诸子研究提供了新的视野,但却以汉代学者的研究框架作为对立面,忽视了其"平等"的方法论价值。平心而论,在目前条件下,新材料的发现、新概念的引入、新方法的导入等,并不足以动摇汉代学者的研究框架,相反在更深层次上再一次证明,汉代学者对先秦诸子思想谱系的研究成果,依然是基础性且富有启发性的。

     

    Abstract: The ideas of "six schools" and "nine streams" are the academic genealogy of the scholars in the Han Dynasty, and they are still the basic frame of reference for the scholars in the pre-Qin period. Since modern times, the academic circle has constantly questioned this framework from the perspectives of concepts, methods and new materials. Many scholars, on the conceptual level, interpreted the Jia (literally meaning family) discussed by scholars in the pre-Qin, Qin and Han dynasties as the "school" in the modern sense, but in fact it is difficult to fully correspond to the historical meaning of "family". Yiwenzhi in the History of Han Dynasty is regarded as a narrow category of bibliography, which underestimates its academic value. The discovery of a large number of new materials filled in the "blank" of some academic history of pre-Qin period, but there was a tendency of overestimating the academic history value of unearthed documents. However, the introduction of the new method provided a new perspective for the study of the scholars in the pre-Qin period, but it took the research framework of scholars in the Han dynasty as the opposite and ignored its methodological value of "equality". To be fair, under the current conditions, the discovery of new materials, the introduction of new concepts, and the introduction of new methods were not enough to shake the research framework of scholars in the Han dynasty. On the contrary, on a deeper level, it was once again proved that the research results of scholars in the Han dynasty on the genealogy of thoughts of various scholars in the pre-Qin period were still basic and instructive.
