The relation of nature and humanity is an important subject in whole history. We begin to look up the works of great masters when crisis of ecology, destruction of environment and development of humanity is becoming a crucial issue that we can't evade in our times especially. The thesis select Carl Marx' 《The writing of economics-philosophy in 1844》 and Lao Tzu' 《The Tao The King》 as object and compare with the relation of nature and humanity of them. Firstly, explore the thought connotation of the relation of nature and humanity from these texts and systematize it: generally saying that Marx think nature and humanity is unitary, but Lao Tzu think nature and humanity is a whole. There is both similar and different in theirs'. Secondly, take the relation of nature and humanity as object and compare with theirs' thinking model: they expound the relation of nature and humanity in systematic and dialectical model of thinking. Marx think nature and humanity is unitary through our practice, however , Lao Tzu think nature and humanity is a whole without our conduct. Lastly, explore their humanitarianism thoughts through their thoughts of the relation of nature and humanity: Marx and Lao Tzu pay close attention to human' existence and development, especially to the poor. We analyse their thoughts and can find that they emphasize that humanity and nature is a whole, only if humanity and nature develop in harmony, human' problem be solved lastly. |
