in modern western philosophy,rational concept occupies the core position.Liberalism and the scientific spirit and many other led to the basic idea of modern society,all is set up by means of rational support.Rational concept itself has experienced a complex process of development and evolution from the ancient Greek god of natural reason,the rational theology of the middle ages,and then to the modern philosophy of human rationality,and thus contribute to the unique features of western modern social process.Mention western philosophy,people will naturally think of the word "reason",but "rational" in the history of western philosophy is not a static concept,and its emergence,evolution and development process.Therefore,in view of the "rational" is not a dogma,the concept of rigid,also given in the different historical stages of western philosophy in the difference of the concept of rational actually reflect the different spirit of The Times we think it necessary to,according to the principle of Marx's logic is consistent with the history,concretely expounds on the concept of "rational" in western philosophy the history process of the formation,evolution and development,reveals the "rational" as the vitality of "living soul".This paper will discuss the concept of rationality,evolution and development.The first part is the natural reason of the ancient Greek philosophy,and this section mainly deals with the creation and of the natural philosophy of ancient Greece.Development of ancient Greek philosophers initially through the exploration of nature,for the people living environment and the society to establish a reasonable basis,so it can be said that the ancient Greek natural philosophy it is the basis of the concept of rational development,for better understanding of human nature opened the light of rationality.The second part is the human rationality in modern philosophy,this part mainly discusses,in the context of the development of modern society,people to the understanding of the nature of rational as to further enhance the development of science and technology.Human reason dethroned theology and established man as the subject of reason.From then on,the rationality from the outside into the natural rationality and rational theology strayed back to the people,to return to the real home,became the essence of human ability or essential strength.Therefore,rational in people to achieve real self awareness of the consciousness,opened up to scientific and democratic era of rational enlightenment,thus fundamentally laid the ideological foundation of the modern industrial civilization.The third part is the human rationality in modern philosophy,this part mainly discusses,in the context of the development of modern society,people to the understanding of the nature of rational as to further enhance the development of science and technology.Human reason dethroned theology and established man as the subject of reason.From then on,the rationality from the outside into the natural rationality and rational theology strayed back to the people,to return to the real home,became the essence of human ability or essential strength.Therefore,rational in people to achieve real self awareness of the consciousness,opened up to scientific and democratic era of rational enlightenment,thus fundamentally laid the ideological foundation of the modern industrial civilization.The fourth part is the pure reason of Kant's philosophy,and Kant's critique of pure reason has a certain general basis.Side it through,and limit the scope of the research on the sources of knowledge has been clear about the people and not know what to know,that is to say,it is to solve the problem I can know what is in order to solve the problems of the whole people pointed out the direction and way;While criticizing it through to the people's cognition and thus the various geographical clear the various cognitive ability in understanding the overall the status and role should be.The fifth part is the speculative reason of Hegel's philosophy,Hegel's philosophy is the discard of the agnosticism of Kant,he thought,thinking and existence is both have a mutual relationship of unity of opposites,and the relationship is based on the concept of "absolute".It is thoroughly unified for thinking and existence,therefore,Hegel's speculative reason completed the reason the evolution of the concept in western philosophy development course,reached the absolute.Rational concept in the history of western philosophy has experienced a long evolution process,originated in ancient Greek natural philosophy,developed in the medieval Christian theology rationality and human rationality of modern philosophy,Hegel's dialectical reason finally completed the evolution of the concept of rational development,reached the absolute reason.Driven by reason,it produces a world of modernity.That is,countries and regions have closer exchanges and interactions in political,economic and cultural fields,and it requires the implementation of the rational spirit in all sectors of the industry.Rational thinking is the crystallization of western culture under certain historical conditions.It is the product of criticism of god and theology.We should make full use of reason to serve our socialist modernization,and guide all our lives with rational thought.
