從戴君仁先生〈魚樂解〉試探莊子的淑世精神

Exploring Zhuangzi’s Concept of Meliorism by Examining Dai Junren’s “Interpretation of the Happiness of Fish”

本文題旨有三：其一，藉〈魚樂解〉初步勾勒戴君仁先生之莊子學。其二，反思戴先生視莊子思想為「唯心」之洞見與侷限。其三，藉境界觀探析莊子思想中可能蘊含的淑世精神。基於此，全文共分三節展開：首先，舉要回顧近四十年內，學者對濠梁之辯之異詮。其次，扼要勾勒〈魚樂解〉思想輪廓，並反思戴先生會通陽明與莊子的詮釋。最後，從比較〈秋水〉與〈齊物論〉之異，呈現莊子的淑世精神。
