Liqin LI

Abstract


Confucian Classics, The Thirteen Ching, have been regarded as Canon in the traditional Chinese hermeneutics. Confucian scholars’ultimate telos is to understand the significance of Confucian Classics. The Confucian Classics hermeneutics, which is related to Confucian scholars’ultimate concern, has not been served entirely as the theory of the art of interpretation but the ontological hermeneutics from the beginning.However, it is the interpretation that has given and established its authority. And, it requires a hermeneutical reflection of some sophistication to discover how it is possible to acquire and regain its scholarly legitimacy in Chinese history. The Confucian Classics had been understood and interpreted in a different way by Confucian scholars, in fact, it is a kind of transmission and sharing of a unified belief in Confucian Tao and Sheng. It is necessary to interpret the continuity of meaning or the break in some given stages in the course of construction of the Chinese Classics hermeneutics, in which the interpretation systematicity has been established as well.

Key words: Classics; Authority; Confucian Classics Hermeneutics; Interpretation; Understanding
