Title: Friendship between Zhu and Lu and the Factions of New-Confucianism——A Study on the Changes of Zhu Xi's Philosophy in Patterns
Abstract: Zhu Xi and Jiuyuan lived at the same time but gave lectures respectively.However,it is friendship,instead of discord,that stands out in their mere two times of face-to-face academic meeting and communication though they held different academic opinions.As the historian in the Qing dynasty Zhang Xuecheng said,they can keep either of their own school and cannot merge together through the ages. Thereupon,there has been description about factions of Neo-Confucianism in the philosophical history.Generally speaking,Zhu and differed in the explanation about Li(reason),and afterward Lu's theory was developed into Lu Wang philosophy of the mind(Lu Wang Xin Xue) which had an impact on learning of the Qing dynasty by Neo-Confucianism scholars of the Ming dynasty.To be specific,over a long time from Song till Qing dynasty the neo-Confucianism created by Zhu Xi did not change except their form and a few details while the framework and foundation remained the same as Zhu's,which means it just underwent changes in the patterns of Zhu Xi's philosophy.
