《准南子》道論試析－以「存有論」和「宇宙論」的理域契入

本文旨在探論《濯南子》道論之內涵，特別著重在「存有論」和「宇宙論」理域之所涉。在「存有論」部分，《淮南子》透過其賦體的文風，對「道」之本體眾義多有發揮，且藉「太一」之名結合其時天文學、神學之宇宙理論，強調了道論中的「本根」體性。在「宇宙論」部分，一如大部分兩漢時代的學說，《淮南子》以其時氣化宇宙論的思想來回應著《老子》。〈第四十章〉、〈第四十二章〉之宇宙生成的命題，以「氣」來鋪陳「道－物」開顯之歷程，並呈現同「存有論」和「宇宙論」混而說之的理論特色。基此特色之反思，本文於文末嘗試評述其所反映出中國哲學天道思想特有之形上思維，及近人之評述。

並列摘要

This article is mainly discussing the content of ”Taoism” of Huai-nan-zi, especially focusing on ”Ontology” and ”Cosmology”. In the part of ”Ontology”, Huai-nan-zi has a lot of discussions on the ideas of Ontology of ”Taoism”, through its literature writing, and it places much emphasis on the character of ”Origin” of ”Taoism” by combining, in the name of ”Tai Yi”, Astronomy and Theology in terms of ”Cosmology” of the day. In another part, ”Cosmology”, just like most theories from Han Dynasty, Huai-nan-zi uses the thinking of Qi's Cosmology in response to Laozi's thesis on the creation of world in its chapter 40 and 41, expounding the development from ”Tao” to ”Creation” in terms of the idea of ”Qi”. In this book, it seems like ”Ontology” and ”Cosmology” are often discussed together, and this specialty is reflected on the given Chinese Metaphysics in terms of the philosophy of Tau. Therefore, this article would be trying to give comments on the feature and several modern discussions on it.
