摘要
在上古,"为"字常有"谋取"之义。以郭店楚简本为依托,通过文本内外语境的分析,可知《老子》中"无为"之"为",应该采取这一含义。所谓"为无为"、"无为而无不为"等说法,意指执政者"爱民治国",代表公利而不谋求私利。这是老子思想的核心,即"道"的实质。它是针对春秋时期社会的主要矛盾而提出的政治要求,也是在当时一种突出的社会思潮中形成的,老子把它看作虽不具形质却真实存在的永恒规律性。而"天下皆知美之为美也,恶已"、"大音希声,大象亡形"、"不言"等涉及艺术与美的观点,都是《老子》核心思想的延伸;以往中国文学批评史、美学史中,基于对老子思想玄虚化的理解而形成的一些观点,并不符合艺术和美的规律,需要加以清理。
During the pre-Qin period,the Chinese character ＂wei＂ often means planning to gain something.Through a discrimination upon the context both in and out of Laozi,this paper maintains that the character ＂wei＂ of ＂wu-wei＂ in the book adopted the meaning mentioned above.Thus ＂wu-wei＂ means not seeking self-interest,which is the key idea of Laozi and the core of Tao.It was a political appeal based on the dominant social contradiction of that time.Laozi＇s teaching that ＂everybody knows how beauty is beauty,which brings him no good＂,is the development of his key idea.And there are considerable misunderstanding concerned in Chinese history of literary criticism and Chinese aesthetic history to be clarified.
