Abstract
Influenced by the scientific and knowledge view of objectivism, humane education has fallen into the trap of absolute rationalism. Based on a comparison between and science, from a multidimensional angle and from the mutual relations between human and various kinds of knowledge, certain characteristics of humanism knowledge could be revealed. Humanism education must respect, inherit and return the excellent traditions of Chinese humanism exert excellent educational intelligence and get out of the educational mire of putting undue emphasis on conceptual thinking.
