중국유가철학에 있어서의 이성과 욕망의 관계 연구 = The Relationship Between Reason and Desire in Chinese Confucianism

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In Chinese Confucianism, Kongzi laid emphasis on Ke-ji-fu-li(克己復禮), and Mengzi insisted upon the theory of unselfishness. It is on the assumption that man has a moral reason innately. As long as we live, it is natural that we pursue our desires, e.g. desire to eatㆍsexual desireㆍthe pursuit of material benefits etc. But if the pursuit of desires didn`t appropriate to the standard of moral reason, it needs to control our desires. This is a basic viewpoint till Song Dynasty. The slogan of Neo-Confucianism, Cun-tienliㆍQu-renyu(存天理ㆍ去人欲) was based upon the public and private affairs. After Ming Dynasty, as the structure of society has been changed, the school of Taizhou stressed on body and desire. Wang Fu-Zi in Cheng Dynasty affirmed the importance of desires. It represented the destruction of dichotomy between moral reason and desire, and laid the foundation of modern culture.
