梁启超对中国传统"私德"的批判与继承

“公德”和“私德”及其相互关系是梁启超道德哲学的主要内容。在进行道德革命时,他用资产阶级的“公德”批判中国传统道德的“私德”;在进行道德建设时,则用中国传统道德的“私德”去补充资产阶级的“公德”。梁启超从“公德”到“私德”的转化,是从道德革命到道德建设的深化,是思想上的前进,不是思想上的倒退。

Liang Qichao's Understanding on the Chinese Traditional "Private Morals"

The main content of Liang Qiaochao'a moral philosophy is about public morals and private morals and the relationship between each other. In moral revolution, Liang Qiaochao criticized the private morals of Chinese traditional morals by the bourgeois public morals. In moral construction, Liang Qiaochao supplemented the bourgeois public morals with the private morals of Chinese traditional morals. Liang's change from public morals to private morals signified the deepening from moral revolution to moral construction and the thought progress.
