左光斗是明朝末期东林党的重要人物,为挽救岌岌可危的明王朝统治,他呕心沥血、披肝沥胆,给后人留下了足以光照史册的精神财富。但人们对他思想上的局限与保守历来少有论述,本文旨在以史实为据,阐明左光斗气节之高尚、信仰之可悲,客观公正地评价古人,扬其长避其短。 Zuo Guang Dou is an important figure of the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty. To save the precarious Ming dynasty, he devoted painstaking efforts to ignoring the spirit and wealth of the future generations. However, people have never discussed the limitations and conservatism of his ideology. The purpose of this paper is to show historical facts as the basis for elucidating the lofty spirit of Zuo Guang’s vision and his deplorable religious belief, which objectively and justly evaluates the ancients and keeps them short.
