道德是一个国家赖以存在和得以治理的根基,我国传统儒学一直致力于道德教化,竭力倡导“道德为先”的原则。王艮基于这一重德传统,坚持“德行为重,文艺为轻”的教育方针,希望通过有效的道德教育,培养民众的仁善品质,调节民众的情绪,解放民众的个性,实现“三代之治”的社会理想。 Morality is the foundation upon which a country exists and can be controlled. The traditional Confucianism in our country has always devoted itself to moral education and endeavored to advocate the principle of “morality first”. Based on this tradition of heavy virtue, Wang Gen adhered to the education policy of “virtue and behavior are serious and literature and art are light”. He hoped that through effective moral education, he would cultivate the goodness and benevolence of the people, regulate the emotions of the public, liberate the personality of the people and realize the goal of “ Governance ”social ideal.
