Four Kinds of Identity Consciousnesses in the Studies of Chinese Philosophy
How to study Chinese philosophy has always been a basic issue since its birth,which has also troubled many brilliant scholars.Look back on the history and expectations of Chinese philosophy over the past century,we may characterize it with the concept of"four consciousnesses",which are the consciousness of taking Chinese philosophy as a research object,as one kind of thought resource,as a dialogue partner,and as a new philosopher.They progressively deepened and include with each other,and even form a certain cycle.Putting forward these four kinds of consciousness is not only a review and reflection on the previous Chinese philosophy research,but more importantly,it is an attempt to make scholars more conscious in the study of Chinese philosophy,and clearer of the status of themselves.Chinese philosophy research is calling for new philosophy systems,which can answer the questions of the time,viz to be a new philosopher.
