Betwixt Politics and Scholarship: The Sun Ch'i-feng Circle in Seventeenth-Century North China

孫奇逢在明末清初時爲當時知識菁英界推崇爲北方儒學之首。現代學術史大都集中探討其《理學宗傳》之著作而忽視其爲何成爲當時群儒之首的原因。本論文以分析其生活經歷入手，說明他介入明末政治鬥爭的經過和其政治疏離感的形成。他日後雖然不再正式參與政治但技巧性地和當權勢力維持適當關係，其門生弟子不乏達官貴人；另一方面，在其主導下，孫奇逢和其門生編著各類型有關儒學傳承和北方名人傳記。從其編寫的設計，可以看出孫奇逢企圖以立書作傳界定其所認可的儒學特質和正當性，從而樹立其自身在儒學界的權威地位。孫奇逢一生的經歷和其與知識取向，代表在政治壓力下的一種人生抉擇類型。本文的研究即是分析釐清其中值得反省借錯之處，擴大對儒學研究的視野和可能的研究取徑。

並列摘要

Sun Ch'ing-feng was the most famous Confucian in Seventeenth -Century North China. Modern scholarship tends to focus on his work Li-hsüeh tsung-chuan 理學宗傳(Transmission of the Lineage of the Learning of Principle) and ignores his other achievements. In this study, I look into his intellectual endeavors and life experiences, especially his involvement in late Ming politics, which crucially contributed to his sense of political alienation. I have analyzed how he skillfully managed to maintain a delicate relationship with shifting political authorities, while devoted himself in formatting a powerful scholarly circle to earn respect among fellow Confucian scholars. In particular, his compilation of a number of works demonstrates his ambition to become an authoritative voice in defining the Confucian tradition. I have argued that Sun was engaging in a struggle over symbolic power, as Bourdieu has theorized, in his construction of a specific northern cultural and social identity. Unlike many studies focusing on the resistance and martyrs during the Ming-Ch'ing period, the investigation on Sun's story offers an alternative perspective to reflect upon intellectual and life choices under difficult political circumstances.
