On Feng Youlan's Interpretation of Filial Piety Based on Family Orientation
Traditional culture is the"root"and"soul"of our nation and an indispensable precious re-source for modern civilization construction.As one of the long-standing traditional cultures,filial pie-ty culture has played an indelible role in the history of thousands of years in China and it is also a re-source for exploring solutions to the current global aging problem.Feng Youlan has provided a new interpretation of traditional filial piety culture from the perspective of"family orientation".From the perspective of"sympathetic understanding"and under the social background of family as the standard,the traditional filial piety culture is a cyclical system composed of life as the starting point and it is an inevitable choice for social and economic development.Although it has entered socialization develop-ment today,filial piety culture still holds an irreplaceable position.In short,Feng Youlan's interpre-tation of traditional filial piety culture by"family orientation"is an objective reflection of seeking truth from facts and also a challenge for today's scholars.It provides a foundation for the construction of today's socialist moral values and provides useful insights for the development and resolution of filial piety issues in modern society.
