亞旦斯多德與易學哲學本體論的比較

本文以卡爾˙雅斯培（Karl Jasper,1883－1969）的「軸心時代」（Axial age）學說為基礎，他認為在這一段自西元前800年到200年的600年期間，人類的人文思想突飛猛進，是一個文明覺醒的年代。本文將針對希臘和中國兩個古文明的哲學派頭─亞里斯多德（Aristotle, 384－322 B.C.）與《周易》經、傳及後儒所詮釋的本體論進行比較。本體論是形而上學的一個重要部分，主要在探討關於「存在」的各種問題，或可視其為是對於究竟真實的探討。本文將從亞里斯多德與易學哲學對於究竟真實存在的探討、關於實體的認知，以及亞里斯多的在本體論的創見─潛能、實現和四因說，與易學哲學裡，從《易傳》到朱熹、王夫之的道器之分與理氣之辨，討論這兩個在東西方文明中裡，具有代表性的本體論之異同處。
