摘要

许多研究都很好地考察了中国帝国后期商人崛起的现象,其中儒家文人对新的社会现实做出了各种适应。尤其是王阳明(1472-1529)的心学,将这一发展融入了其哲学世界观中,使儒家圣人被认为是商人所能及的。然而,反对的程主学派迄今为止却没有受到人们的关注。本文试图通过研究程朱的亲信李光锦(1549-1623)的著作来填补这一空白,李光锦对商人的慷慨重新评价也延伸到了女性代理人身上。他对学术谱系的痴迷和对儒家文化变革力量效力的信念表明,他从未将商人视为真正的商人,而是伪装成的学者。他敢于对司马迁关于钱庄的权威著作进行批判和改写,以达到自己对买卖男女的评价。但他重男轻女的观点和对国家贞洁崇拜的支持,却突显了他作为正统程学家的身份。

Scholars in Disguise: The Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucian Reappraisal of the Merchant Class in Late Ming
The phenomenon of the rise of merchants in late imperial China has been well examined in many studies, in which Confucian literati are shown to have made various adaptations to the new social reality. Wang Yangming’s (1472–1529) School of Mind-Heart in particular, incorporated this development into its philosophical worldview so that the Confucian sagehood was deemed to be within the reach of merchants. However, the opposing Cheng-Zhu School of Principle has hitherto escaped focused investigation. This paper seeks to fill the lacuna by studying the writings of a Cheng-Zhu partisan, Li Guangjin (1549–1623), whose generous reappraisal of the merchants extended to the female agents as well. His obsession with scholarly pedigree and his belief in the efficacy of the transformative power of Confucian culture indicated that he never perceived the merchants as true merchants, but as scholars in disguise. He was daring to criticize and rework the authoritative writings of Sima Qian on money-makers for his own evaluation of men and women in trade. But his patriarchal views and support of the state cult of chastity nonetheless underscored his identity as an orthodox Cheng-Zhu Confucian.
