对于叔孙通这个历史人物,后世学者的评价历来存在分歧,如仅以道德判断去衡量,则未免偏颇。通过分析司马迁笔下叔孙通的性格,兼顾道德判断与历史判断,可以发现其性格的缺陷和制礼的副作用,通过人性的角度也看到其为政的智慧和功劳。 As to the historical figures of Shu Suntong, the evaluation of future generations of scholars has always been divided. It is too biased to judge only by moral judgment. By analyzing Sima Qian’s character, taking into account the moral judgments and historical judgments, he can find the flaws in his character and the vice-function of courtesy. He also sees the wisdom and meritorious service of his administration through human nature.
