摘要

本文借鉴郑中英对包容性人文主义或内在人文主义的理解，对王充(公元27年-公元97年)的思想进行了新的解读。具体来说，我展示了这种人文主义是如何反映在王对占卜的辩护中，以及他如何重新解释自发性、天赋和天性的概念，为人类在宇宙中的能力、关注和角色提供了洞见。此外，我描述了本体论谦卑在占卜和包容性人文主义中的重要性，然后讨论了这种性格或美德如何在现代科学文献中出现。虽然我在这篇文章中对王对占卜的辩护提供了一种人文主义的解读，但我也认为本体论的谦卑可以指导人类做出负责任的行为，并改变自己、其他生物和宇宙。

A Humanist Reading of Wang Chong’s Defence of Divination

In this article, I present a new perspective on the thought of Wang Chong (王充, 27 CE – ca 97 CE) by drawing on Chung-Ying Cheng’s understanding of inclusive or intrinsic humanism. Specifically, I show how this type of humanism is reflected in Wang’s defence of divination and how his reinterpretation of the concepts of spontaneity (ziran 自然), endowment (ming 命), and natural disposition (xing 性) provide insights into the capabilities, concerns, and role of humans in the universe. Additionally, I describe the importance of ontocosmological humility in divination and inclusive humanism, then discuss how such a disposition or virtue figures in the modern scientific literature. While I offer a humanist reading of Wang’s defence of divination in this article, I also argue that ontocosmological humility can guide humans in making responsible actions and transforming themselves, other creatures, and the universe.

期刊介绍： Critical Asian Studies is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal that welcomes unsolicited essays, reviews, translations, interviews, photo essays, and letters about Asia and the Pacific, particularly those that challenge the accepted formulas for understanding the Asia and Pacific regions, the world, and ourselves. Published now by Routledge Journals, part of the Taylor & Francis Group, Critical Asian Studies remains true to the mission that was articulated for the journal in 1967 by the Committee of Concerned Asian Scholars.
