On the Theory and Influence of Fan Zhongyan's Study of “Yi” On the Theory and Influence of Fan Zhongyan’s Study of “Yi” Junying ZHANG Liupanshui Normal University Abstract: As the core figure of “Qingli Yi” in the Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan took the lead in the interpretation of “Yi” and in the study of doctrines. His interpretation of “Yi” had the characteristics of the transition from the image-numbism school of Han Confucianism to the doctrines of Song Confucianism, which had an important influence on the later academic development and played a role in the academic inheritance of the Song Dynasty. Key words: Fan zhongyan; Zhouyi; Yi; We learn DOI:10.47297/ wsprolaadWSP2634-786503.20200103 an Zhongyan (989—1052), styled Xiwen, a famous politician, strategist, educator, Fthinker, litteratorian in Chinese history, posthumous “Wenzheng”, known as “Fan Wenzheng Gong”. Fan Zhongyan life generals, famous heavy bamboo silk; Achievements article, recite through the ages; Personality and morality stand out in history. Ambition, long life. He is a rare, outstanding, outstanding and far-reaching figure in Chinese history[1]. Not only has a distinguished political performance, and guide the northern song dynasty and the wind, the initial style, pioneering the early northern song dynasty advocated Confucian revival, has pioneered in the intellectual history of song dynasty, is create a “first song spirit”, have made outstanding achievements in many fields, zhu xi described it as “the leading characters between heaven and earth ever!” Because of its combination of achievements, morality and articles, it has aroused great attention and constant research of scholars in the past dynasties. 1. We Learn The Book of Changes, as the head of the Six Classics, embodies the cultural accumulation and wisdom of the ancients, and has exerted a profound influence on the civilization, ideology and scholarship of later generations. Since the Han and Wei Dynasties, there have been endless studies on the Book of Changes, which gradually formed a prominent school, including three schools of image-numbering, rationalism and historical affairs. The Yixue of the Yixue school, represented by Fan Zhongyan’s Yiyi, originated in About the author: Junying ZHANG (1983-5), Male, Han nationality, Native place: Shaanxi Shangzhou, Liupanshui Normal University, Director and researcher of Chinese Fan Zhongyan Research Society (CIFR), member and distinguished researcher of Chinese Pre-Qin History Society (CHS).Research direction: Chinese Ideology and Culture. 15 Research on Literary and Art Development Vol.1 No.3 2020 the Song Dynasty. Yi Yi is the longest and most important representative work among Fan Zhongyan’s academic works. The full text has more than 4,000 words. Scholar Pan Yuting commented on Yi Yi: “Although it is short, every word is valuable and beneficial to the world.” [2]. He advocates that the interpretation of Yi should “follow the meaning” and not emphasize the annotation. He advocates that “scriptures should be clarified and texts should be clarified”. Get rid of the zhouyi exegetical study of the appearance of the han dynasty chapters, giri said “easy”, pay attention to because of the md, stars adn birds, to advocate the Confucian classics, even from scripture by injection, or delete chapters, with their own understanding of the Confucian classics interpretation experience profound philosophical connotations, I note, in quest to philosophical connotations of the basic characteristics of open, deciphering, It became the biggest characteristic of the later Song learning ① . The Song Yi System was formed in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty. With Fan Zhongyan as the core representative, the Qingli Yi School was formed through the advocacy and development of Ouyang Xiu, Hu Yuan, Sun Fu, Shi Jie, Ligou and others[3]. Exploring the Yi was the first and continued to the early Qing Dynasty. Zhang Zai, in “The Theory of Classics”, said, “The study of the Theory of Classics must be deep and well- developed, not shallow and frivolous.” [4]. After the Song Dynasty, people put stress on the Confucian classics, to explore the knowledge of the name of the science of righteousness. 2. Fan Zhongyan’s Thoughts and Theories on the Study of” Yi” Fan Zhongyan’s thoughts and theories on the study of the book of changes were deeply influenced and enlightened by the book of changes, and he had some insights. “Song History • Fan Zhongyan Biography”: “Fan Zhongyan general knowledge of the six classics, long and Yi.Scholars from the query, for the interpretation of the Scriptures, the death of fatigue. Taste push its serve to eat the Quartet Tour, all the sons to Yii, such as Yan also.” [5]. Fan zhongyan “easy” research study of ideological theory, fan zhongyan thought is that we know the academic philosophy foundation, fan zhongyan “easy” learning theory, embodied in “Yi Yi” and “yi and three material” “QiongShenZhiHua fu” the four said the dry for Jin Fu “covered with ideas fu” and “yi” learning works, these works are “easy” fan zhongyan solution or play “yi”, in this paper, the principles of the classic. (1) “Yi” and three talents, the unity of man and nature, the interpretation of the law of the universe Fan Zhongyan’s Ode to Yi and Three Material: “In the past, there were the lives of saints, and the purpose of the construction of Da Yi. To observe the way of heaven, to observe the discipline of earth. Take a man from him, and make a fortune from him. It will take the cloud of change as its meaning, and it will keep the principle of purity, tranquility and subtleties”[6]491-492. He put forward the word “righteousness”, and explained that “Yi” is “to connect heaven and earth to human Yi”, such as “Yi” is to teach also, reach four dimensions?...To rule the cause of a hundred Kings, to break the doubt of all things. Change does not live, suitable for inside and outside without lag; Widely prepared, package up and down and doubt. How to!!!!No secluded impassability, but change is appropriate. Quasi heaven and earth and let the sun and the moon, livestock Fenglei and Lieshan Ze. The dance of the drum is full of spirit and combines three talents to form “Yi”.”[6]491-492. Here, 16 On the Theory and Influence of Fan Zhongyan’s Study of “Yi” Fan Zhongyan includes nature and human society, natural history and human history in Yi, so that Yi Tao has no discomfort and no impassability. At the same time, the construction of four-dimensional philosophical category reflects the way of human understanding and grasping the world, is a unique theoretical interpretation of the universe ontology, and contains universal philosophical significance. In relation to the universe life and the relationship between man and nature, the humanist thought of “man can expand the way” embodies the positive and enterprising outlook on life and the striving spirit of “unremitting self-improvement”. At that time, this was undoubtedly a relatively advanced thinking mode and value orientation. Fan Zhongyan deep “Yi” said, “study the nature of the moment.” In the book “Yi and three materials” put forward “Yi and three talents, the unity of nature and man” view of the universe. Embodies the “easy” it covered the universe, commanding the nature and man, integration of the way of heaven, earth, people only three for the integration of the overall harmonious thought, is a kind of integration and innovation of philosophy, the theory of the Confucian idea of “nature and humanity” inheritance and development, with a heavy on the new features of the personnel, the song dynasty is a very good philosophical ontology thinking, is a kind of man and nature, man and society, interpersonal harmony, this is the han dynasty and the song of “nature and humanity” ideology difference [7], and today we advocated the “sustainable development” and “scientific development” has the same meaning. Fan Zhongyan’s thought of “Yi” as well as three talents and the unity of man and nature “is not only an elaboration of the theory of thought, but also a code of conduct for concrete practice, and a methodology for observing the universe and natural society. In the late years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Qian said that you had a deep understanding of Fan Zhongyan’s practice of establishing himself and his knowledge of virtue, meritocracy and speech. In his Lecture on Building a Temple in Wu County and Devoting an Angiety to Wen Zhenggong, he said, “The Book of Change says that the way to establish heaven is Yin and Yang, the way to establish earth is soft and firm, and the way to establish people is benevolence and righteousness.” “Virtue stands by benevolence and righteousness, then virtue is pure virtue; Merit with righteousness and stand, merit for the gong; If the word stands for benevolence and righteousness, the word is the maxim”.“The reason why the public is deeply in the heart of the people and do not between the present and the ancient, is only based on benevolence and righteousness, to become the first man in heaven and earth” [8]. (2) Explain the “four virtues”, practice the four virtues, and realize the holy inside and outside the king The Yi scholars before the Song Dynasty believed that the universe was a recurring reality, which was manifested in four virtues: Yuan, Heng, Benefit and chastity. The Yuan is the beginning of all things, the Hung is the growth of all things, the Benefit is the fulfillment of all things and the chastity is the achievement of all things. The four virtues correspond to the four seasons, believing that “Yuan, Henn, Prosperity and Virtue” represent a complete process of all things in nature from spruce to collection, matching with the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which is a cyclical movement, and also corresponding to “benevolence, propriety, righteousness and wisdom”.

    1 New development: Wang Anshi’s Wanyanshu as the origins of modern public management? Yunxiao Xu, Caichen Ma and James L. Chan A recent paper in this journal (Drechsler, 2013) traced the origins of modern Western public management to the Wanyanshu, a memorandum Wang Anshi submitted in 1058 to a Song Dynasty emperor in China. We raise doubts about the author’s assessment and claims about that still remarkable document about government human resource management, in part by citing Chinese historians’ ambivalence. Believing in the value of Sino-Western comparative research in public management, we push back the origins of Chinese statecraft by 2,000 years by suggesting further research into older and greater Chinese contributions to global public management.

  • Tracing Changes in Acu- Moxa Therapy During the Transition from the Tang to the Song Dynasties 1
    EASTM 18 (2001): 75-11 I Changing Standards: Tracing Changes in Acu­ moxa Therapy During the Transition from the Tang to the Song Dynasties 1 Asaf Goldschmidt [Asaf Goldschmidt is a lecturer at Tel Aviv University, Israel. He received his Ph.D. in History and Sociology of Science from the University of Pennsylvania in I 999. His dissertation was on "The transformations of Chinese medicine dur­ ing the Northern Song dynasty (920-1127)." The dissertation analysed how by the end of the Northern Song dynasty three past medical approaches converged into one comprehensive medical system. He is currently working on a history of the first imperially sponsored pharmacy in China and on the influence of the Song emperor Huizang on medicine.] * * * Acupuncture is probably one of the most renowned topics when traditional Chi­ nese medicine is discussed. Indeed, more often than not, when people discuss traditional Chinese medicine one of the first issues they discuss is acu-moxa therapy (see definition below). Acu-moxa therapy is certainly one of the most intriguing and unintuitive therapeutic skills in the arsenal of traditional Chinese medicine. However in spite of this, little research has been conducted on the history of this topic. Existing works mostly concentrate on either the question of the origin of acu-moxa therapy or provide a general overview of its history.2 This paper offers a different approach - it compares the contents of six surviving texts of acu-moxa therapy dating to the late Tang and early Song dynasties. By com­ paring the contents of these works, I attempt to examine changes in the manu­ scripts available to practitioners of that era.

  • Memorial on the Crop Loans Measure, by Wang Anshi
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) MEMORIAL ON THE CROP LOANS MEASURE By Wang Anshi Introduction The Song dynasty (960-1279) was weaker than its predecessor, the Tang, and ruled over a smaller territory. To the north and northwest, the Song faced strong alien regimes: the Khitan Liao dynasty (907-1125) and the Tangut Xixia (990-1227). These regimes posed a constant military threat, which the Song defused by making payments of silk and other goods to both the Xixia and the Liao according to negotiated agreements. Still, the burden of maintaining troops for the defense of the empire was significant and caused serious financial problems for the imperial government (the cost of the payments to the Xixia and the Liao was small by comparison). The officials of the Song dynasty approached the task of government with the inspiration of a reinvigorated Confucianism, which historians refer to as “Neo-Confucianism.” Song officials such as Fan Zhongyan (989-1052), Su Shi (1037-1101, also known by his pen name, Su Dongpo), and Wang Anshi (1021-1086) worked to apply Confucian principles to the practical tasks of governing. As with any group of scholars and officials, different individuals had different understandings of just what concrete measures would best realize the moral ideals articulated in the Analects and Mencius. Such disagreements could be quite serious and could make or unmake careers. Wang Anshi was a noted scholar and official. He distinguished himself during a long term of service as a country magistrate. In 1068, the young Shenzong Emperor (r. 1068-1085), then twenty years old, appointed Wang Anshi as Chief Councilor and charged him with carrying out a thorough-going reform of the empire’s finances, administration, education, and military.

    Research Report #28 April 2016 Development of Family Foundations in the United States and China: Case Studies of Four Family Foundations Carolyn Isles Shuang Lu Chien-Chung Huang Huamin Research Center, School of Social Work Rutgers University In the recent decades, the amount and size of family foundations have increased substantial- ly in the United States and China. Yet little research has examined this phenomenon and its impact on social development, particularly in China. In this study, we use the Context, Input, Process, and Product (CIPP) evaluation model to examine the status and roles of family foundations in the U.S. and Chinese society. Our case studies of four family foundations (two U.S. and two Chinese) sug- gest that these foundations were established in different contexts.

  • Politics and Conservatism in Northern Song China: the Career and Thought of Sima Guang (A.D
    《中國文化研究所學報》 Journal of Chinese Studies No. 45 - 2005 388 Book Reviews Politics and Conservatism in Northern Song China: The Career and Thought of Sima Guang (A.D. 1019–1086). By Xiao-bin Ji. Hong Kong: The Chinese University Press, 2005. Pp. xi + 253. $42.00. This book does two things that have not, I think, been done before in a Western language study of Song history. It is, first, a marvelous study of the dynamics of the relationship between the inner court and the outer court during a period when the inner court was often beset by such internal problems as choosing a successor and tensions between an empress dowager and the emperor and the outer court was increasingly divided by factions based on ideology. It is, second, a detailed case study of how three emperors (Renzong, Yingzong, and Shenzong) and one official (Sima Guang) were able to play politically important roles in the polity. I cannot improve on Ji’s statement of the lesson of this study for historians: “The emperors (and sometimes the regents) never took their power for granted, but were instead always trying to strengthen and maintain this power. The ruler’s work of asserting and maintaining control was a never-ending process.” (p. 183) Some emperors were better at this than others, as Liu Jingzhen has shown in her study of the first three emperors.1 The Northern Song is an interesting period for examining the jockeying for power between the inner and outer court because the outer court was in the hands of literati officials who, during Sima Guang’s lifetime, were increasingly guided by ideology.

Here, the differential reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) was performed to monitor the growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) on a SiO2/Si substrate prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). A home-built in-situ DRS setup was applied to monitor the growth of MoS2 in-situ. The formation and evolution of monolayer MoS2 are revealed by differential reflectance (DR) spectra. The morphology, vibration mode, absorption characteristics and thickness of monolayer MoS2 have been confirmed by optical microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, ex-situ DR spectra, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) respectively. The results demonstrated that DRS was a powerful tool for in-situ observations and has great potential for growth mechanism and controllability of TMDCs prepared by CVD.
