荀子的哲學典範及其在後代的變遷轉移

Xunzi's Philosophical Paradigm and it's Shifting throughout History

當我們跳出宋明以來孟學本位的詮釋理路，並且兼顧荀子哲學的意謂、蘊謂兩層義涵，荀子的哲學典範便可以展現一個具有正當性的新面貌：以自然元氣為本體本原、天人合中有分、人性向善、學知禮義、積善成性、以禮義治國等等。以這樣的哲學典範為基準，我們便可以把歷史上許多失聯的荀學論述串聯起來，重新構築一個壯闊的荀學哲學史的圖像；並且可以積極地開展一個「當代新荀學」的運動。

It has already been difficult for Xunism to be legitimate since Sung and Ming dynasties. But we can now change the situation if we reinterpret Xunzi's philosophy through the creative hermeneutics. By doing so, we can find there are so many thoughts in Chinese history which in fact belong to Xunism, the learning of Xunzi. We can also start constructing a positive contemporary Neo-Xunism.
