Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日本近現代の倫理思想の中での儒学の再構築を試みた本研究において用いられた論法は朱子学と伊藤仁斎の思想など江戸の儒学との比較研究であった。日本の近世儒学研究では朱子学のもつ意義が比較的に重用されない傾向がある。その原因の一つは、孔孟の思想に忠実しようとする古学派の影響にあるだろう。そのような流れは和辻哲郎などの倫理思想においても受け継がれていると思う。しかし、朱子学抜きで近世以降の儒学を論じることにはやはり問題点を感じざるを得ない。そのような観点から、本研究においては、日本の近世儒学を語るにあたり朱子学との比較の重要性をもう一度強調した。
