由具原益轩和西川如见确定了朱子学经验理性主义的方向后,德川时代以后的朱子学的命运又是如何呢? 一般地来讲,将整个宇宙视为理的贯通而进行阐述的朱子学体系已被中断,之后,朱子学开始了分化,并从中逐渐形成了古学。关于古学的形成,这样讲虽然是无错的,但这决不是说朱子学的全部,统统地都被古学吸收了。朱子学仍然作为朱子学说继续存在着,其穷理的经验理性主义化却逐渐地得到发展而明确起来。西学的传入,使经验理性主义更加容易理解,在儒教文化中,理作为近代科学传入的媒体,加深了其内在的自觉性。德川幕府末期的佐久间象山等人就是具有这种自觉性的典型,但是他们不仅仅是出于朱子学者的立场,而是通过古学者荻生徂徕的思想,加深了对西方医学的优越性的理解。即便是接受这一思想并将它传入日本的杉田玄白,成为他思想媒 After the Tokugawa Era and Nishikawa have determined the direction of Zhu’s experience of rationalism, what is the fate of Zhu Xi’s school after Tokugawa Era?
