일본 양명학자들의 『大學』 해석에 대한 시론

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to discuss the general the interpretation of Daxue by Japanese Yangming scholars. In modern Japan, interest in Daxue in modern Japan is shown in Daigakuyorak (大學要略) by Fujiwara Seika(藤原惺窩) in the early Edo period. Since then, the interpretation of Daxue has been steadily continued steadily even among Yangming scholars in Japan. Examples are as follows: Nakae Toju(中江藤樹)’s Daigakuko (大學考), Daigakumochu (大學蒙註), Daigakukai (大學解), Kohondaigakuzenkai (古本大學全解), Kumazawa Banzan’s Daigakuwakumon (大學或問), Miwa Shissai(三輪執齋)’s Daigakuzokukai (大學俗解), Oshio Chusai(大鹽中齋)’s Daigakukohonkatsumoku (大學古本刮目), Sato Issai(佐藤一斎)’s Daigakuikkasigen (大學一家私言), Daigakutekisetsu (大學摘說), Daigakukohonhosyaku (大學古本傍釋) and etc. The followings are the contents discussed in this study : First, it was confirmed that there was a high interest in Daxue, especially Kohondaigakuzenkai (古本大學全解) by Wang Yangming in Japan. It can be seen that Japanese Yangming scholars have expressed their academic position based on the Japanese specificity on Xiujizhiren(修己治人), the original spirit of Confucianism, through the interpretation of the three principles(三綱領) and eight items(八條目) of the Daxue. In addition, it was possible to observe that Wang Yangming was also interested in bibliographical studies of Kohondaigaku (古本大學), not just in the interpretation of Daxue itself. I think it is worth paying attention to how the flow of Kokugaku(古學) is connected with each other. Second, as a very prominent feature, there have been the bibliographical interest in the interpretation of Kohondaigaku, from Nakae Toju to Oshio Chusai and the bibliographic interest in Kohondaigaku by Wang Yangming, not seen in China and Korea when considering East Asian Yangming Studies. It seems necessary to put into the field of view and study. Third, Japanese Yangming scholars also paid attention to the interpretation of Chuanxilu (傳習錄), which is an essential material for the interpretation of Daxue by Wang Yangming, and the result is considered to be a groundbreaking achievement in the Yangming academic community in East Asia at the time. Objective evaluation and research on this should be further carried out in the future. In particular, Miwa Sitsai’s Hyochudenshulok (標註傳習錄) and Satou Issai’s Denshulokrankaisho (傳習錄欄外書) need to be translated later in Korean.
