Abstract

Zhang's philosophy of history and the true meaning of history is not just some specific way, but that which contains the whole of Chinese history and culture and philosophical thinking. It is traditional in Lu and Wang Qing study the evolution of the product. It relieved the intellectual tradition static, mechanical and logical analysis of dualism, and the historical, academic and cultural change as a constant motion, from quality to the text of the cyclic process, all of which are special, limited, and reasonable , are said external display, there is no absolute truths, that "the Six Classics are all history of it." The significance of Zhang Xue-cheng's historical philosophy lies not only in some practical historical methodologies but also in its general and philosophical thinking about Chinese history and culture. As the offspring of the development of Lu and Wang's doctrine of mind in the Qing Dynasty, Zhang's historical philosophy dissolved the static and mechanical logic analyses of the intellectualist tradition and considered history, academy and culture as an ever-changing and cyclic process, of which everything is specific, limited, and reasonable. They are the manifestations of dao rather than the absolute truths, as what is meant by "all the six classics are history"
