역사철학에서 본 양만리의 引史證易說과 理史合一의 세계

Abstract

The essay is focused on how we can understand Yang Wan-li’s Yin-shi-zheng-yi Doctrine. The key point is the world of Li-shi-he-yi from the perspective of historical contents as one of the methodologies for Yi-li Changeology. This is based upon the internal relationship between changeology and history, and interprets the Commentaries of Zhou-yi based on historical events or facts. There are three complex structure in explicating the character of shi-shi changeology in his Yili changeology: the rule of yin-shi-zheng-yi, the method of ming-yi-da-shi and the principle of li-shi-he-yi. They can be respectively classified into the glance of history recognition, the dimension of historical consciousness and the horizon of historical philosophy. In particular, the third horizon of historical philosophy is oriented toward a new trend of historical contents. Yang Wan-li tries to find the historical spirit in the thinking way of changeology on the premise that Zhou-yi is a kind of historical book. In the process of interpreting Zhou-yi, he emphasizes humanistic thinking and its social realization, and tries to derive historical teachings from sagehood according to the spirit of the times. From the viewpoint of Ming-yi-da-shi, changeology provides theoretical law to history, while history provides practical historical data to Chageology. Yang Wan-li described historical examples as narrative theories through the methodology of Yin-shi-zheng-yi. In it, he reveals the historical spirit in the context of Sagehood history and seeks an integral boundary where joins the sage spirit and the historical spirit. In an integral unity of changeology and history, beginning in the understanding of Yi-li changeology, he searches for the absolute spirit of Tian-li in the context of the historical consciousness. This methodology, aiming at administrating the state to make a practical application, provides a basis for advancing to the academy of Chinese history at the dynasty of Qing.
