An Interpretive Study of the Interrelationship between Rites and Music under the Paradigm of Chu Hsi's Neo-Confucianism in Yuan Dynasty——Taking Chen Hao's Collected Commentaries on the Book of Rites as an Example
Since the Paradigm of Neo-Confucianism was established,the philosophical concepts in traditional philosophy had been paid more attention by Neo-Confucian scholars represented by Cheng-Zhu,and meanwhile they were reinterpreted.Chen Hao who was the successor of the Neo-Confucianism of Chu Hsi in Yuan Dynasty,had taked the Book of Rites as the research object,con-sciously inherited their ideological heritage.It not only realized the refinement of Chu Hsi's Neo-Confucianism from the interpretation of righteousness,but also remedied the disadvantages of its triviality and emptiness.Influenced by the interdependence of rites and music,Chen Hao's work of Collected Commentaries on the Book of Rites not only realized the philosophical interpretation of the interpretative re-lationship between Rites and Music through the thought of Tai ji"Han San Wei Yi Zhi Li",the inseparable relationship between Dao Qi,the flexion and extension of the dynamic inerplay of Yin Yang and the inseparable relationship between Ti and Yong,but also a-chieved the dual purport of classical interpretation and rational construction.
