摘要
与西方用理性来规定人的本质不同,中国传统用德性来规定人的本质。由于人是一种德性的存在,人就应该过一种以德性为根据的生活,中国的古代文明是一种德性的文明。在这种德性的文明中,中国的传统科学是一种德性的科学。这种德性的科学以德性修养为基础,通过把握"道"或"理"来认识和把握自然万物。德性的科学有其不同于理性科学的特点和发展规律。
Different from the western definition with rationality, the Chinese tradition defines the personal quality in terms of virtue. As man exists in the form of moral integrity, he should live in a life of virtue and the Chinese ancient civilization is one of the virtue civilizations. In this virtue civilization, the traditional science in China is a kind of virtue science. It is based on moral nurture and accomplishments and the nature is perceived by means of 'Dao' (principles) and 'Li' (mechanism). The science of virtue is different from other rational science in characters and laws of development.
