戴震的学术主张与学术实践

乾嘉汉字的治学宗旨是由文字、音韵、训诂、考据入手以寻求经书义理和圣人之道。作为清代中叶最著名的学者和思想家 ,戴震不仅以文字、音韵、训诂、考证的辉煌成就为世所重 ,而且以系统而又深邃的义理学说 ,在清中叶的学术思想界独树一帜 ,成为为数不多的既讲考据 ,又有思想的汉学家之一。但是 ,探寻戴震的学术主张和学术实践 ,可以看到 ,其起点是“我注六经” ,终点却是“六经注我”。这种独特的学术风格 ,一方面反映出戴震学术的特点 ,另一方面也观照出汉学宗旨的科学性与局限性。

Dai Zhen''''s Academic Standpoint and Practice

The aim of the scholarly research on the Chinese characters in the Qing Dynasty is to seek for argumentation of the Chinese classics and doctrines of the sages through written language, phonology, interpretation of words and textual research. As the most famous scholar and thinker in the middle Qing Dynasty, Dai Zhen not only won respect for his brilliant academic achievements, but also flew his own colours in the academic and ideological circles then with his systematic and profound Yi Li theory, and had become one of the few sinologists who paid attention to textual research and also had their own ideas. However, through his academic standpoint and practice, it may be found that he began with "I annotate Liu Jing," but ended up with "Liu Jing annotates me." While showing clearly his academic characteristics, this particular academic style reflects both the scientificity and limitations of the aim of Sinology.
