帛书《易之义》键川、阴阳、刚柔、文武思想合论 摘要:帛书《易之义》通过对《周易》卦象的分析,探讨了键川、阴阳、刚柔、文武的意蕴,凸显了阴阳协调、刚柔相济、中和的思想。作者将这些思想的阐述,导入人生实践,这样便与《中庸》的庸常之道、道家贵柔主张具有相关性。其阴阳调和、刚柔有体而文武兼备的思想倾向,很能说明作者在人生领域的折衷态度和价值取向。 关键词:帛书《易之义》;键川;阴阳;刚柔;文武 Abstract:By analyzing the images of the hexagrams in the Zhouyi , the author of the chapter of Yi zhi yi of the silk manuscript of the Zhouyi discussed the implications of Qian-Kun , yin-yang , hardness-softness as well as civiland military affairs, stressing the balance between yin and yang , the complementariness between hardnessand softness, and the thought of harmony.
