Zhang Taiyan's Interpretation on the Cheng & Zhu's Confucian School of Idealist Philoshophy

Zhang Taiyan's explanation on the Cheng Zhu's Confucian School of Idealist Philosophy(or Li Theory,or the Neo-Confucianism)has not been given due attention in the academic field.As a famous master of Chinese national culture and revolutionary in the modern China,his points from the ancient Confucian Classics(or the Han learning) were against the Song learning,his enlightenment thoughts were opposed to Li Theory,he was good at Buddhism and Zhuang learning,and he had different comprehension on the morality,so he got his conclusion full of individuality.Some questions which were paid little attention,such as his academic thoughts about merging the Han and Song learning together in his middle-age,his valuation on the learning of the brothers of Cheng,and his criticism to the relationship between Zhuxi and the new thoughts,were helpful to the study on the history of Chinese Neo-Confucianism and modern intellectual thoughts.
