课文摘要在中国传统教育里,最重要的一部书就是《四书》。《四书》之一的《大学》里这样说,一个人教育的出发点是“格物”和“致知”。就是说,从探察物体而得到知识。用这个名词来描写现代学术发展是再适当也没有了。现代学术的基础就是实地的探察,就是我们现在所谓的实验。大家都知道明朝的大理学家王阳明(1472—1529),他的思想可以代表传统儒家对实验的态度。有一天,王阳明要依照《大学》的指示从“格物”做起。他决定先要“格”院子里的竹子。于是,他搬了一条凳子坐在院子里,面对着竹子硬想了七天,结果因为头痛而宣告失败。
Text Abstract In traditional Chinese education, the most important book is the Four Books. One of the “Four Books,” “College,” says that the starting point for one’s education is “geography” and “information.” That is, knowledge is obtained from the object. Using this term to describe modern academic development is no longer appropriate. The foundation of modern scholarship is the exploration on the ground, which is what we now call experiments. Everyone knows Wang Yangming (1472–1529), a great dynasty of the Ming Dynasty. His thoughts can represent the traditional Confucian attitude toward experimentation. One day, Wang Yangming will start from “Gewu” according to the instructions of “University”. He decided to first “grid” the bamboo in the yard. So he moved a stool and sat in the yard, thinking hard for seven days in the face of bamboo. He failed because of a headache.
