《朱子语类》揭底（下） Unveiling the Bottom of "Zhuzi's Language Category" (Part II)

《朱子语类》是朱熹与其弟子问答的语录汇编。中国宋代景定四年（1263年）黎靖德以类编排，于咸淳六年（1270年）刊为《朱子语类大全》140卷，即今通行本《朱子语类》。 我看此书所展现的朱熹，与通常理解的“道学先生”大相径庭。例如，朱熹主张“妓乐可用”——思想相当现代前卫，超过了欧洲社会开放红灯区的程度，因为南宋理学家还主张可以在家私用妓乐。 Executive summary "Zhu Zi's Language Category" is a compilation of quotations from Zhu Xi and his disciples. In the fourth year of Jingding in the Song Dynasty of China (1263), Li Jingde arranged it by class, and published it in the sixth year of Xianchun (1270) as the 140 volumes of "Zhuzi Language Class", which is now the popular version of "Zhuzi Language Category". I see that the Zhu Xi shown in this book is very different from the commonly understood "Mr. Taoism". For example, Zhu Xi advocated that "prostitutes can be used"—a modern and avant-garde idea that surpassed the degree of opening up the red-light districts in European societies, because Southern Song theorists also advocated that prostitutes could be used in furniture.
