The Development of Chinese Philosophy
中国哲学的发展
Generally speaking, Chinese philosophy has passed through three different distinct historical stages： the classical age, the period of synthesis and absorption of foreign thought and the period of further enrichment and maturation stimulated by the introduction of Marxism into China. Through-out all these periods，Chinese thought has tended toward humanism ratherthan spiritualism, rationalism rather than mysticism , and syncretism rather than sectarianism.
一般来说，中国的哲学已经走过三个不同的历史阶段：古典时代，合成和吸收外国思想的时期，马克思主义传入中国进一步丰富和成熟的时期。通过所有这些时期，中国人的思想朝着人性主义而不是唯心论、理性主义而不是神秘主义、汇合而不是宗派主义发展。
