春秋战国时代人类理性认识的突破性发展,孕育出邹衍这样博大瑰伟的思想家。其思想成就着重表现于社会历史观方面,五德终始与大九洲说在历史时空意识的构建上,几乎可称在古代是空前绝后的。由于当时及后世鲜有真正的知音解者,故被目为怪迂而一误于方士的比附曲解,再误于汉代神秘化趋向的阴阳五行儒学之中,这种误解且在神仙、谶纬及佛学等思想传衍中一直延续下来。所以,邹衍思想的宏硕渊深,既成就其伟大,同时也使之成为一位古今最少为人所能理解的孤独思想家。 The breakthrough development of the human rational understanding in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period gave birth to such a magnificent thinkers as Zou Yan. Its ideological achievements are mainly manifested in the social history view. The five virtues of the end and Dijiuzhou say that in the construction of historical space-time consciousness, it can be said that it is almost unprecedented in ancient times. Because at that time and in the future there were few true knowledgeers, it was misunderstood in the Confucianism of the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements in the mysterious tendency of the Han Dynasty. Buddhism and other ideas spread has been extended. Therefore, Zou Yan’s profound and profound thoughts have not only accomplished his greatness but also made him a lonely thinkers whom at least people can understand from ancient to present.
