《莊子》「自然」觀的講明,或許可以透過兩方面來進行:一是消極的別異澄清,二是正面的積極詮釋。前者是為了說明《莊子》的自然觀「不是」或「不只是」那種意義的自然;後者則盡可能積極詮釋《莊子》自然觀的豐富意義。因此筆者嘗試對底下幾種理解道家自然觀的方式或內容,進行總覽式的批判考察與詮釋反思,尤其希望對把握《莊子》自然觀的深刻意蘊,提供多層面的觀看角度:一是有關科學「唯物實在論」的自然觀,二是牟宗三「主觀心靈境界」的自然觀,三是郭象「獨化自生」的自然觀,四是楊儒賓詮釋的「玄化山水」自然觀,五是徐復觀理解的《莊子》自然觀,六是何乏筆闡述的平淡美學的當代性與《莊子》的自然觀。
Zhuangzi’s nature view can be explained from two aspects: one is negative clarification, and the other is positive clarification. The former is to display the nature at the meaning of “no” or “not just”; and the latter is to actively explain the rich significance of Zhuangzi’s nature view extensively. Therefore, the author attempts to conduct the critical review and explanatory reflection on the following approaches or content to comprehend the nature view, especially hopes to provide the multi-level viewing perspectives to grasp the profound implication of Zhuangzi’s nature view: (1) the nature view related with science “materialist realism”; (2) the nature view of Zongsan Mou’s “subjective spiritual realm”; (3) the nature view of Xiang Guo’s “individualization authigenic”; (4) the nature view of metaphysics landscape explained by Rur-bin Yang; (5) Zhuangzi’s nature view understood by Fu-Guan Xu; (6) the contemporaneity of plain aesthetics and Zhuangzi’s nature view explained by Fabian Heubel.
