The development of neo-confucianism determined the academic characteristics of the Song Dynasty. Compared with the previous generation, the most important is that scholars have different interpretations of the classics, especially for the aspects of disposition, heavenly principle and so on. Because of the stimulus and influence of Buddhism and Taoism, many confucianists tried to find from traditional classics, new thoughts to be assessed side by side with Buddhism and Taoism, and had been more actively developing new meaning for classics. As a disciple of Lu Jiuyuan, a master in the school of mind, Yang Jian is one of the few scholars who is actively engaged in classic annotation. The classics he annotated include the Classic of Poetry, Classic of Changes, Spring and Autumn Annals, The Analects, Classic of Filial Piety, etc., a total of 79 volumes. Yet, he was much criticized because of his unusual viewpoint. Yang's Annotation of the 'Classic of Changes', referred to as Yang's Annotation below, is one of his works which had received severe criticism. The editor of 'Siku Quanshu' (the Imperial Collection of Four), for instance, put forward different opinions from Yang's when discussing his annotation of Classic of Changes. Whether Siku Quanshu Zongmu Tiyao (Summary of Imperial Library) is objective or not, its argument represented the opinion held by the majority of scholars, general impression of Yang's Annotation. With the criticism based on impression, it is not possible to see the truth of this annotation, nor to get the whole picture of it. Therefore this study aimes to analyze Yang's Annotation by looking at his method of interpretation and to discuss the characteristic, as well as flaws, of this work. Through thorough reading and sorting, the researcher would start from the saying of 'unifying ten-thousand with one' to make clear the connotation of 'one' and the possible difficulties when interpreting the Classic of Changes with 'one'. |
