Leibniz is an encyclopedic genius that is extremely rare in the history of the West and even in the history of human thought.His research theory covers all aspects.There are many contents about ethics,but there is no special ethics left.The work of the system of learning.Although Leibniz's ethical theory is disorganized,there are still a large number of parts worthy of our research.Leibniz was born in 1646 in Leipzig,Germany,an area with a strong Christian religious atmosphere.The philosophy of the scholasticism left a clear trace in his thoughts,and his educational experience and his own knowledge system and religious theology are fundamental.The entanglement is quite deep and cannot be discussed separately.After Leibniz completed his own accumulation of original knowledge,he began a long theoretical study called "The Plan of God." He placed all his knowledge systems under the framework of theology,including his ethical thoughts,and his rational theological ideas are subordinate.The top of Leibniz's ideological structure is his rational theological thinking,followed by ethics,mathematics,logic and many other disciplines.Under ethics,it is justice,happiness,good and evil,etc..This paper is divided into three parts,which is intended to grasp Leibniz's ethical system as a whole,and to grasp its enlightenment and influence on contemporary society through the study of Leibniz's ethical thought.The first part analyzes the basis and basis for the formation of Leibniz's ethical thoughts from the objective social background,life background,theoretical basis and theoretical origin of Leibniz's ethical thoughts,and finds the reasons for the formation of Leibniz's ethical thoughts.The second part is the core part of this article,which elaborates on the main content of Leibniz's ethical thought.Although Leibniz's ethical thoughts aredisorganized,but by sorting and categorizing his entire ideological content and referring to the contemporary ethics system,he can find that the core content of Leibniz's ethical thought is based on “God.To define the concept of good and evil,Leibniz believes that good is God,evil is the lack of good is another manifestation of good.Leibniz is divided into two categories: personal goodness and collective goodness,as well as natural goodness and practical goodness.The evil is divided by Leibniz into physical evil,moral evil and metaphysical evil.Kind.After clarifying Leibniz's understanding of good and evil,by studying Leibniz's methods of avoiding evil and avoiding evil,including using love and happiness to solve the contradiction between personal good and collective good,use rational to solve the talent.The contradiction between good and practical good,and the use of universal justice to establish a satisfactory social and political system,to ensure that we lead the road to good,not to fall into the trap of evil,while grasping the practical direction of Leibniz ethics.Under such a large framework,understanding Leibniz's understanding of specific ethical concepts such as good and evil,happiness,justice,virtue and freedom constitutes a relatively complete system framework.The third part is to explain the historical influence of Leibniz's ethical thoughts and my understanding of Leibniz's ethical thoughts and his reflection on contemporary enlightenment.Through the development of Christian ethics,and Leibniz's theoretical contribution to the representative of German classical philosophy,Klein's theoretical contribution to the influence of Leibniz's ethical thoughts on later generations,and through the modern philosophers such as Russell for Leibniz Criticism of the ideology to reflect the limitations of Leibniz's ethical thinking.Finally,the fourth part,through Leibniz's research on the relationship between man and nature,man and god,man and man,finds the enlightenment of Leibniz ethics on contemporary society.For Leibniz's ethical thoughts,it is not difficult to find that few scholars discuss his ethical thoughts from the perspective of Leibniz's theology.Leibniz's ethical thoughts cannot be separated from Christian theology.It is inevitable that misunderstanding and confusion will arise when Atheism is left alone to see Leibniz's ethical thoughts.Therefore,I feel that Leibniz's ethical thought should be re-examined from theological perspective.Such academic inquiry has theoretical and academic value.
