Since modern times,the great changes in Chinese society have led the academic circles to try to solve the Chinese problem from the cultural level by constructing the Chinese Confucian system.There are not only ways to sort out the inner meaning of Confucianism based on traditional forms of learning,but also ways to construct Confucianism by means of Western philosophy.Among them,Zhang Xianglong interpreted Confucianism with the help of phenomenology,especially Heidegger’s phenomenology,presenting a new approach to the development of contemporary Confucianism.As an iconic figure,the study of Zhang Xianglong’s Confucianism can enable us to check and reflect on the successes and failures of contemporary Confucianism.Zhang Xianglong’s vision of phenomenology came from Heidegger,and he reorganized the Confucian context by "facing the thing itself".He regards "Shangshu Yaodian" as the source of Confucian ideology,the source of spiritual belief,and the source of existence structure,which contains the sense of filial piety full of time.The sense of filial piety at this time also belongs to an unconscious state.Until Confucius completed the Confucian consciousness of filial piety through the non-objective contextual experience of "being prosperous in poems,standing in etiquette,and being happy",Confucius regarded the parent-child relationship as the source of Confucianism and built his own Benevolence.The political situation of the pre-Qin society was more turbulent.In the face of the reality of ritual collapse,the Confucian way of life based on the filial piety consciousness and the ritual and music system began to collapse.To save Confucianism.In the process of passing filial piety to the body,Zeng Zi experienced filial piety in a real sense full of timing.The Simeng School further expanded the dimension of filial piety from the level of mind and nature,and internalized filial piety into personal moral cultivation.Xunzi argued that filial piety was only possible through external norms.At this point,the pre-Qin Confucianism made filial piety completely Chinese’s social and historical consciousness,and continued the development of Confucianism at its root.Later,in the face of social realities during the Qin and Han dynasties,the Confucianism deduced the concept of filial piety established by blood to the composition of state governance and political structure,forming a thorough theoretical approach of homeland and homeland practice,which made Confucianism become Chinese traditional mainstream.This process was completed in Dong Zhongshu’s telepathic theory.After that,Confucianism experienced the impact of Buddhist ideology.For this reason,Song Confucianism absorbed the Buddhist thought to enhance the speculativeness of Confucian philosophy,hoping to solve the problem of confronting the Buddhists.But this problem has not been solved.After the Opium War,the Chinese Confucian tradition faced an unprecedented crisis,which has continued to this day.For this reason,Zhang Xianglong put forward the idea of establishing a Confucian cultural protection area.He hoped that in this way,Confucianism would survive and the time consciousness of filial piety should be extended from the family to the whole society,so as to realize Confucianism and the entire Chinese cultural tradition Modern revival.
