恩格斯曾在《路德维希·费尔巴哈和德国古典哲学的终结》中首次提到了哲学的基本问题,即:“全部哲学,特别是控哲学的重大问题,是思维和存在的关系问题。”但是很显然,研究中国传统哲学时无法直接套用该问题。由此探究,思维和存在是否是全部哲学的基本问题,中国传统哲学作为一种哲学类型,有没有其独特的哲学基本问题。 Engels first mentioned the basic question of philosophy in “The End of Ludwig Feuerbach and German Classical Philosophy”: “All philosophy, especially the major issue of controlling philosophy, is the relationship between thinking and being Problem. ”" But it is clear that the problem can not be applied directly to the study of traditional Chinese philosophy. Whether inquiry, thinking and being are the basic questions of all the philosophies. As a kind of philosophy, Chinese traditional philosophy has its unique basic philosophical problems.
