Pan Fuen: Member of Academic Committee of Confucius Institute of China Renmin University. Born in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, 1933. He used to be the director of the China Philosophy History Teaching and Research Section of the Philosophy Department of Fudan University, the director of the Academic Committee of the Philosophy Department, and the doctoral supervisor. The main representative works are: Research on Cheng Zhu's Neo-Confucianism, Comments on Lv Zuqian, Comments on Fan Zhen, Comments on Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi, etc. , and published many papers in important journals such as Philosophical Research, Academic Monthly and New Construction.
On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the 80th anniversary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), 1999 and 200/kloc-0 respectively, People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency's Daily Telegraph reported in a prominent position the names of foreign friendly people who came to China to participate in the celebration. One of them is Titalenko. He is the chairman of the Russian-Chinese Friendship Association and an academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences. He has made positive contributions to Russian-Chinese friendship. Generally speaking, people only know his official status, but they don't know that Titarenko studied in China in the late 1950s, let alone that his tutor is Pan Fuen, a famous philosophy professor at Fudan University.
Pan Fuen, 70, was born in an intellectual family in Wenzhou, Zhejiang. His father, Pan, graduated from the American-founded missionary school Arts and Literature School, and then went to Shanghai Sanshen College to study. Later, he became the pastor of the Christian parish in southern Zhejiang. He is good at English and ancient poetry, and he is eloquent. Unfortunately, he died of tuberculosis at the age of 40. Pan Fuen was 6 years old. Due to the bombing of the Japanese invaders, the family moved from Wenzhou to the suburbs with their mother, namely Shanghe Township, Yongjia County, which is the hometown of Ye Shi, a giant of Yongjia School in the Southern Song Dynasty, and now belongs to ouhai district, Wenzhou City. My mother, Xu Shuliang, is an obstetrician, running her own clinic, single and widowed, raising children. He has been practicing medicine in the countryside for more than 60 years, and his age is 100, and he just died. Pan Fuen grew up in the countryside and heard about the poor life and oppression of farmers in the old society. Mother has always wanted to give Pan Fuen a better future through reading. He studies in the local central primary school. During the winter and summer vacations, his mother ordered Pan Fuen to go to a scholar named Ding in a neighboring village to learn children's enlightenment books such as "Three" and "Study Tour". Because my mother thought that the phrase "the kitten makes noise and the puppy barks" in the primary school textbook at that time was too superficial and needed to be supplemented. As I grew older, my mother asked Pan Fuen to recite Peach Blossom Garden and Humble Room Inscription with the eyes of the ancients. Under the supervision of his mother, he came into contact with a little common sense of ancient Chinese.
Since middle school, Pan Fuen went to town to attend a missionary school-Sanyu School in southern Zhejiang. I like reading literary and artistic works at school, and I am not used to teaching various rules of the school. After graduating from junior high school, I was admitted to the senior middle school of Ouhai Middle School. At that time, Mr. You Renkui, a Chinese teacher, gave free and easy lectures and had a solid foundation in Chinese studies. When reading ancient poems, he is full of cadence and charm. He has a unique way of grading students' composition scores, with 20 points for each lap and one point for each. It was three laps. On one occasion, Pan Fuen's composition was approved four times plus five points, 85 points, the highest score in the class. This is a great encouragement to Pan Fuen, and it can be said that it is an opportunity for Pan Fuen to develop China's ancient literature and history in the future. When I was a sophomore, that is,1May 949, Wenzhou was liberated, and many students joined the army and took part in the work. Pan Fuen also signed up for the army, but failed. /kloc-at the beginning of 0/950, I transferred to Nanjing Zhonghua Sanyu School to continue my high school life according to my mother's instructions. At this time, there was a 75-year-old teacher in the school, who was a famous literature and history veteran. He converted to Christianity in his later years, and his temperament was a bit eccentric. The first time I gave Pan Fuen a class, everyone was required to write an autobiography in classical Chinese. Only Pan Fuen could write an essay in the class, so he appreciated it and personally awarded Shuo Wen Jie Zi and Zhao Wenming Xuan. He said to Pan Fuen, "A poor literary selection is half a scholar." Therefore, during this period, Pan Fuen laid a solid foundation of Chinese studies.
After graduating from high school and returning to my sister's home in Shanghai, it has passed the unified college entrance examination, so Pan Fuen was admitted to the Chinese Department of Shanghai University and studied for one year. In the same year, Pan Fuen joined the New Democratic Youth League, and the article written in memory of Lu Xun was included in the special issue of the school. 1952 department adjustment, Pan Fuen was merged into the Chinese Department of Fudan University according to his major. At that time, there were ten professors in the Chinese Department of Fudan University. The head of the department is composed of Sister Liu, Chen Zizhan, Wu, Zhao, Jiang Tianshu, Zhang Shilu, Fang Lingru, etc. The teachers in the Chinese Department are very strong, and Pan Fuen and others study hard. There are 32 students in the class, each of whom has his own interests and chooses his own academic development direction. Some study aesthetics and literary theory, some immerse themselves in China's classical literature, and some engage in modern literature or linguistics. Everyone has his own interests. There are very few classes, but there are only 18 classes a week. Pan Fuen is interested in pre-Qin philosophers. After reading Mo Zi Lun, he wrote Mo Zi Lun, which is his work. At this time, Shi Changdong, Pan Fuen's hometown, emerged from the class. He published "On Beauty is Life" in Literature, History and Philosophy magazine, which attracted academic attention, but it was also the root cause of his accident. Pan Fuen's undergraduate thesis is about Yuefu poems in Han Dynasty. They are facing graduation, each with a beautiful ideal, ready to work in the assigned unit. However, the case of "Hu Feng anti-party clique" that shocked the whole country suddenly broke out, and one third of the students in their class were implicated to varying degrees. Some were expelled from the Party membership and league membership, while others were criticized. Among them, Shi Changdong was arrested, which made everyone feel insecure. Because Pan Fuen is dull and quiet on weekdays, he likes to engage in classical literature, so he stays away from literary theory disciplines involving politics and is left as a teaching assistant by the school. At first, he was assigned to the China Classical Literature Teaching and Research Section of the Chinese Department, and later transferred to the philosophy teaching assistant of the school's political class. Pan Fuen was not very interested in philosophy when he was a student, and thought it was not suitable for philosophy. But on second thought, all his classmates are scattered, and he is lucky to have such an arrangement. So I followed the lecture teacher of philosophy class, doing teaching auxiliary work, listening to the class of Soviet philosopher Koschev at the same time, and earnestly studying the original works of Marxist-Leninist philosophy to make up for the lack of philosophical knowledge in the past.
65438-0956 Fudan University established the Philosophy Department and began to recruit the first batch of students. As a teacher of philosophy department, Pan Fuen was sent to Peking University to study the history of China's philosophy. At that time, the philosophy department of Peking University was the only university in China with a philosophy department after the adjustment of 1952. At that time, Fudan University, Wuhan University and other institutions were preparing to set up philosophy departments, and there was a shortage of teachers, so they sent people to Peking University for further study, hoping to "borrow chickens and lay eggs." At that time, there were many famous professors in the Department of Philosophy of Peking University, and Feng Youlan was the head of the department. Zhang Dainian is the deputy director, in addition to Zhu, He Zong Baihua and Ma Cai who study China's aesthetics; Associate professor and Zhu Bokun lecturer. Pan Fuen was appointed as Professor Zhang Dainian's tutor. In just over a year, under the guidance of Zhang Guangsheng, he further understood the truth of learning. He was Pan Fuen's first mentor to study the history of China's philosophy. During his further studies at Peking University, he chose to listen to special lectures by famous scholars: Feng Youlan talked about Mencius, Liang Qixiong talked about Xunzi, Zhu talked about Yangming, Rong Zhaozu talked about Dai Zhen, and there were philosophical lectures by Hou Wailu, Hu Sheng and Ai Siqi, which opened Pan Fuen's eyes. 1957 In the spring, a seminar on methodology of philosophy history of ten countries was held in Linhexuan near Huming Lake at the end of Peking University, and Feng Youlan's "abstract inheritance law" was put forward at this time. There was a heated debate at the meeting, and Pan Fuen attended the meeting. Increase your knowledge. Under the guidance of Mr. Dai Nian, Pan Fuen published his first book "Ye Shi's Materialist Epistemology" in the history of China's philosophy in Guangming Daily on March 1957. Later, Pan Fuen borrowed the Collection of Thinkers in Song and Ming Dynasties from collection room, an ancient book in Peking University Library, and extracted relevant information. When he was ready to continue writing a paper on Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, the "anti-rightist" struggle began. Pan Fuen had no choice but to suspend his studies at Peking University and return to Fudan in advance.
/kloc-0 At the beginning of 958, Pan Fuen went to Luxi Township, a suburb of Shanghai, to exercise and become a new farmer, while most teachers and students of philosophy department went to Haining, Zhejiang Province to "run the department in the countryside" and do the work of "planting philosophy in the hoe". When the Great Leap Forward and the people's commune movement were in full swing, he soon became a member of the peasants, often burning the midnight oil and even sleeping in the fields for the night. During this period, there was only one word "forbearance" in his mind, and he worked hard. He doesn't want to consider or doubt what happened.
1959 summer, when he was a new farmer in the countryside 18 months, Pan Fuen was transferred back to the philosophy department of Fudan University to assist Professor Yan Beiying in teaching the history of China philosophy. He helped Professor Yan with his lessons and taught students the history of China's philosophy. At this time, there was a Soviet student named Titarenko. His newly married wife, Galia, is studying in Shanghai East China Textile Institute. In order to take care of their reunion in Shanghai, he transferred from the philosophy department of Peking University to the philosophy department of Fudan University. Titarenko was the first international student in Fudan University after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the only one at that time. He is very conspicuous at school. Although Sino-Soviet relations were tense at that time, the people knew nothing about it.
The leaders of Fudan University attach great importance to this Soviet student and take special care of him in life. At this time, it was a difficult period of three years of natural disasters, but the school still supplied him with enough food such as soybeans and steaks, which was enviable at that time. The leader appointed Pan Fuen as his mentor in the history of China philosophy. According to Titarenko's request, he attends classes four times a week, each time 12 hours, and tells him the original works of China's philosophy. Pan Fuen said word for word. He carefully translated word for word. Titarenko worked very hard to learn ancient Chinese day and night. He was deaf for a while, and then he often said "Lian". The topic of his graduation thesis is Research on Mozi Thought, and Pan Fuen interprets it according to Sun Yirang's Interpretation of Mozi. Pan Fuen spent two and a half years tutoring him, and didn't finish the task until he finished his defense of Mozi's ideological thesis and returned to China.
After Titarenko returned to China, Sino-Soviet relations broke down publicly, and Pan Fuen never got any information from him again. During the "Cultural Revolution", the propaganda team specially interrogated Pan Fuen for this purpose. After a lapse of 20 years, 1980, the Foreign Affairs Office of the school informed Pan Fuen that Titarenko, as a senior adviser in the diplomatic capital of the Soviet Union, was negotiating the normalization of relations between the two countries in Beijing, and he took this opportunity to personally ask to visit his teachers, Hu Quyuan and Pan Fuen, in Fudan. At that time, Sino-Soviet relations thawed slightly, but Pan Fuen still had scruples. On the morning of the meeting, Titarenko warmly embraced Pan Fuen and said, "I thought you were gone during the Cultural Revolution and I was always worried." . Later, I learned that Titarenko was the director of the Far East Institute of the Soviet Academy of Sciences and the first vice chairman of the All-Soviet China-Soviet Friendship Association. Twenty years ago, he printed 50,000 copies of the first edition of A Study of Mozi's Thought, so he obtained an associate doctor's degree and a doctor of science degree. Pan Fuen returned to Fudan from "decentralization" on 1959, and wrote articles on similarities and differences between Zhu and Lu Jiuyuan in his spare time.
Shi Changdong, a fellow countryman of Pan Fuen, is a famous aesthetician who has experienced political ups and downs. 1955 was arrested for "Hu Feng" case, and 1957 was added as "Rightist". After taking off his hat, he worked in the reference room of Chinese Department. Pan Fuen knows that he is decent and talented. Although Shi Changdong was wronged several times, he still did not change his original intention and devoted himself to studying aesthetics. Pan Fuen didn't alienate his old friends because of adversity. On the contrary, he comforted and encouraged him like a good friend and often discussed knowledge together. At that time, the discussion about the philosophical nature of Laozi was very intense, and nearly 100 articles had been published. To this end, they carefully read various versions and annotations of Laozi, gathered the focus of various debates, and jointly wrote On Laozi's Tao, which attracted the attention of academic circles. People's Daily and Wen Hui Daily published abstracts one after another. 1983, when Shi Changdong was dying, he only saw the cover of Essays on China Philosophy written in cooperation with Pan Fuen, which was sold out quickly after publication.
During the Cultural Revolution, most intellectuals were impacted to varying degrees. Pan Fuen was sent to the countryside and married there. Because his wife's family background is three generations of poor peasants, and he has been living in his father-in-law's house in the country with three children born one after another. The Cultural Revolution was about class background, which saved Pan Fuen a lot of trouble. From the "Cultural Revolution" to 1983, during the busy farming season and on Sundays, Pan Fuen rode his bike to the countryside to participate in productive labor. After nearly 20 years of hard work, he has become accustomed to the life of chopped green onion and soy sauce soup. It was not until 1984 that Comrade Xiaoping implemented the policy of senior intellectuals that his family was transferred to Fudan.
197 1 Fudan university recruits the first "students of workers, peasants and soldiers". Pan Fuen is regarded as a "teacher" and allowed to offer writing exercises for students. Soon, Comrade Mao Zedong issued the instruction of "learning a little history of philosophy", so Pan Fuen opened a course on the history of China philosophy. During this period, he completed China's monograph on ancient epistemology, The Contradiction between Two Epistemologies in Ancient China, which was published by Shanghai People's Publishing House and distributed 800,000 copies. Revise the reprint in 1985.
During the period of 1978, the national conference on philosophy planning was held in Jinan, Shandong. Pan Fuen was invited to participate in the discipline group of the history of philosophy in China, where he expressed his views with great enthusiasm. The following year, the China Conference on the History of Philosophy was held in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and the Society of the History of Chinese Philosophy was established. Pan Fuen, as a representative of Shanghai, became a director of the Society, and made a speech on "How to carry out the research method of seeking truth from facts in the history of China philosophy".
1980 colleges and universities officially resumed professional title evaluation, and Pan Fuen was named as an associate professor. At this time, an assistant professor from Japan (that is, an associate professor) came to Fudan University as a senior advanced student, named Shenze Jiefu. He is engaged in Indo-European comparative philosophy. The main research topic in Fudan University is Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, and the school leaders appointed Pan Fuen as the instructor. Pan Fuen tried his best to pass on his experience of studying Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties for more than 20 years without reservation. Shenze is modest and studious. They learn from each other together and stay up late at night. Pan Fuen took him to Hangzhou and other places to attend academic conferences, and specially introduced him to visit Zhang Dainian and Zhang Liwen, masters of Chinese studies. Under the careful guidance of Pan Fuen, Shen Ze wrote two papers with high academic value in Chinese: Song Studies and Indo-European Philosophy. One is A Survey of Modern Japanese Song Studies, published in zhejiang academic journal 198 1, and the other is A Comparison between Song Studies and Indo-European Philosophy, which attracted academic attention after the publication of A Study on the History of Philosophy in China. On the eve of Shenze's return to China, he bowed down to Pan Fuen three times in order to show his affection for teachers and students, which made Pan Fuen at a loss for a time. This matter was passed down as a much-told story in Fudan University. Shenze became a professor soon after returning to China and became an enthusiastic person to promote Japan-China friendship and cultural exchanges between the two countries. From 65438 to 0985, Pan Fuen went to Tsukuba, Japan to attend the International Conference on Tuixi. After hearing the news, Shenze rushed all the way from Hokkaido to Tokyo Airport to meet him, and spent a lot of money to hire a substitute teacher to make time to accompany China tutor Pan Fuen for several days. This friendship between teachers and students has aroused the feelings and envy of colleagues from all over the world.
After Yasuo Shenze, Pan Fuen has successively instructed many foreign advanced students who came to Fudan University for further study. Nikolai Stendhal, a master of China studies at Leiden University in the Netherlands, came to Fudan to write a doctoral thesis, and his research course was the introduction of western learning to the east in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Pan Fuen mainly taught him Neo-Confucianism and psychology of Zhu Cheng and Lu Wang. In addition to giving lectures, he also took him to Xiamen, Quanzhou, Fuzhou and other places for investigation. This Belgian student gained a lot. He finished a paper of more than 500,000 words, Yang Tingjun, a Catholic and Confucian in the late Ming Dynasty, and received a doctorate. His papers are published in English and Chinese. During the period of 1993, Pan Fuen and Professor Peking University Chen Lai stayed at Taipei Yuanshan Hotel to participate in the "Seminar on Cross-Strait Cultural Thought and Social Development". During the meeting, Taipei Minsheng Daily reported the academic reports of mainland scholars in detail. One night, the hotel manager told Professor Pan that a foreign priest had come to see him. He is confused. He has no acquaintances in this strange place. As soon as we met, it turned out to be Zhong Mingdan, a senior advanced student in Belgium who was instructed by him in the early 1980s. Zhong Mingdan returned to China after studying at Fudan University 10. He received a doctorate in philosophy and a doctorate in theology, and taught at the Seminary of Paris University and Fu Jen Catholic University in Taiwan. At this time, he happened to be at Fu Jen Catholic University. He learned from the newspaper that Pan Fuen had come to Taiwan Province to meet teachers and students. He is very happy with each other. Nikolai Stendhal is currently the head of the Sinology Department of Leuven University. In addition, Zhai (Chinese name) should be mentioned in Germany. His research direction is China's ancient concept of time and space. Under the guidance of Professor Pan, he is now a well-known sinologist in Germany.
In the early 1980s, Pan Fuen's teaching task was mainly to guide advanced overseas students, domestic advanced teachers or foreign visiting scholars. Domestic graduate students come from universities in Kunming, Xiamen, Guangzhou, Ningxia, Lhasa, Urumqi, Chongqing and other places, including Hui, Yi and Uygur teachers. Most of these students who come to Pan Fuen for further study are already professors, and some have retired or are about to retire.
In terms of scientific research writings, Pan Fuen has published more than 100 influential papers since 1980. In addition, he cooperated with Shi Changdong to complete the 250,000-word Essay on China's Philosophy; He wrote the book "The Opposition between Two Epistemologies in Ancient China", which was published by Shanghai People's Publishing House and Du Fu, with 800,000 copies. Fudan University published his monograph A Brief History of Ancient Cognition in China. This book discusses the history of the opposite development of materialism and idealism in ancient China, comments on nearly 40 influential philosophers and their schools from pre-Qin to Qing Dynasty, and draws lessons from the development of ancient theoretical thinking, which has enlightenment and guiding significance for learning and understanding the basic clues and main contents of the development of ancient epistemology in China.
For a long time, Pan Fuen has been pondering how to discuss the Eastern Zhejiang School in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the past, academic circles paid more attention to Ye Shi and Chen Liang, but not enough attention to Lu Donglai (Zuqian), another representative of the East Zhejiang School. In fact, Lu Donglai was a scholar who reconciled Zhu and Lu and absorbed Yongjia's "practical learning". His eclectic and "miscellaneous" ideological characteristics reflected the academic trend of thought in the Southern Song Dynasty. So Pan Fuen published a 6.5438+0.5 million-word Preliminary Study of Lv Zuqian Thought, which was published by Zhejiang People's Publishing House, and comprehensively discussed Lv Zuqian Thought. This is the first book in this field after the founding of New China, which fills the gap in the research field of China's philosophy history. From 65438 to 0985, Pan Fuen was promoted to professor, served as the director of teaching and research on the history of philosophy in China, Fudan University, and was elected as the director of the academic committee of the department, responsible for evaluating and hiring the titles of teachers in the department. This is a sensitive matter and the most likely to offend people. However, Pan Fuen presided over justice and was trusted by everyone, so he was re-elected to this day. Now, Pan Fuen is the only surviving elder when Fudan Philosophy Department was founded. Over the years, courses such as China Philosophy History, Pre-Qin Philosophy, China Ancient Dialectics History, China Ancient Epistemology History, Neo-Confucianism of Song and Ming Dynasties, and Special Study of Zhu Cheng Thought have been offered to undergraduates, masters and doctoral students respectively. However, the content is hierarchical, and the methods are different according to the different teaching objects. He lectures step by step and pays attention to the training of basic skills such as deconstruction and textual research of ancient historical materials. Since the State Council Academic Degrees Committee approved him as a doctoral supervisor, his main job is to guide doctoral students. From 1990 to 1998, 17 students received their doctorates under the guidance of Professor Pan Fuen, and most of their doctoral theses have been published. He said: "Every student of mine who passes the doctoral thesis defense will make me excited. As a teacher, I am gratified! "
Since 1985, Professor Pan Fuen has made great achievements in scientific research. The first is to concentrate on writing three dictionaries and a monograph. The first one is the Dictionary of Philosophy, China's Philosophical History Volume, edited by Yan Beiying and deputy editor-in-chief by Pan Fuen, responsible for writing some entries in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties; The second part is Biography of China Thinkers, edited by Wang Quchang, with Pan Fuen as one of the deputy editors, responsible for the interpretation of some biographies of Song and Ming Dynasties; The third part is 300 Topics of China's Philosophy, which is co-edited with Xia Nairu, Zhu Ruikai and Ding. This book answers the school events, characters' thoughts, conceptual propositions and famous classics in the history of China's philosophy in the form of questions and answers. It is well received by readers and reprinted many times. He finished the 370,000-word monograph "A Study of Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi's Neo-Confucianism", which was unconventional and put forward the view that Cheng belonged to a political thinker who attached importance to change in history, which caused great repercussions in academic circles. He believes that the book "fills the gap in the lack of systematic research on Cheng's monographs in China". Professor Wang Yu of the Chinese University of Hong Kong made such an evaluation in a book review specially written for this purpose, "Pan Zhu is the most comprehensive and meticulous study of Cheng Cheng itself".
With the development of reform and opening up, he often participates in cultural exchange activities. During 1985, a delegation composed of China Academy of Social Sciences and Peking University went to Tsukuba University to attend the international conference on tuition fees, and Pan Fuen read the paper as a member of the delegation. Since then, he has participated in many large-scale academic seminars such as "International Symposium on Confucianism" and "International Symposium on Commemorating Confucius' Birthday in 2540".
From the end of 1989 to the beginning of 1990, Titarenko invited Pan Fuen to Moscow for a one-month academic visit as a "guest of the Soviet Academy of Sciences", and all expenses and round-trip travel expenses were borne by the other party. Pan Fuen flew from Beijing alone for more than ten hours and arrived in Moscow at midnight. Fortunately, Titarenko sent his graduate students and drivers to wait at the airport exit. His student Sasha hung a banner written in Chinese on his black coat, "Know Comrade Pan Fuen". That day, it happened that Titarenko was hospitalized with flu, and his student Sasha carried out the scheduled activity schedule. During my stay in the Soviet Union, I held a symposium in the Philosophy Department of Moscow University and the Institute of Philosophy of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. I also visited the Far East Institute, which is a huge institution with more than 400 researchers and affiliated graduate schools and publishing houses, and its scale can be compared with that of China Academy of Social Sciences. Titarenko was discharged from hospital after recovering from illness, that is, he went to Pan Fuen's residence to discuss with his teacher the selection and style of the Russian version of China's Philosophical Dictionary, and hired Pan Fuen as a consultant to review the relevant entries (the book was published in the Russian Far East on 1994). Titarenko was then the chairman of the Soviet Sinology Research Association. The Far East Institute, which he presided over, published a large number of works translated by early Marxists in China such as Li Dazhao and Qu Qiubai, and The Memorabilia of China Philosophy was also published here. At that time, Titarenko was an adviser and academician of Soviet President Gorbachev. Although he is a senior government official, only two years younger than Professor Pan Fuen, he pays attention to distinguish between teachers and students. On any occasion, he introduced "Professor Pan Fuen was my mentor when I was studying in China". Titalenko invited the teacher to attend concerts and circus performances. On one occasion, he invited his China tutor to eat at the China restaurant "Jinlong Hotel" opened by the Soviets. As far as cooked food is concerned, Professor Pan Fuen dare not compliment, but it is packed, and most of the diners are students studying in China in the 1950s. They came here to eat, not to express nostalgia. Shortly after Pan Fuen's academic visit, the Soviet Union disintegrated.
After returning from a visit to the Soviet Union, Pan Fuen, as the editor-in-chief of the philosophical volumes, participated in the compilation of the Summary of China's Academic Masterpieces headed by Zhou Gucheng, and served as the editor-in-chief of this series of philosophical volumes. After the publication of 1992, the book was reprinted many times and became a necessary reference book for doctoral students majoring in philosophy in China.
1990 At the beginning of this year, Kuang Yaming, honorary president of Nanjing University, edited the Biography Series of China Thinkers, and Pan Fuen was identified as the author of Biography of Lv Zuqian. This book, with 320,000 words, was published in 1992 and 65438+ 10. After publication, critics believe that the success of The Story of Lv Zuqian lies in: "First, study others extensively and trace back to the source;" Second, under the broad vision of social thoughts; Thirdly, the unity of logic and history; fourthly, it seems dull and profound, which represents the highest level of Lv Zuqian studies in China. Later, as one of the main contributors, his Dictionary of Philosophy was finally published after ten years, and won the first prize of the national book. 1996, Pan Fuen published two monographs with a total of 390,000 words, one about Fan Zhen and the other about Cheng Yi in Cheng Hao, among which the latter won the first prize of the "Golden Key" in the Eighth National Book. He believes that the emergence of Fan Zhen's "Deism" and Cheng Hao's and Cheng Yi's thoughts has an important relationship with the relatively liberal academic environment at that time. Professor Pan Fuen has a lot of textbooks on the history of China philosophy, but many of them are similar in content and of average quality. So he thought of combining the original historical materials of China's philosophy with theoretical analysis, so that students can have more opportunities to contact with the original works of representative thinkers in various historical periods and enhance their ability to read the original works of classical philosophy and theoretical analysis. To this end, he took the lead in writing a book "Interpretation of the History of China's Philosophy" with the teachers and students of the graduate school. The book selects representative historical materials of philosophers and makes detailed explanations and comments, which can effectively improve students' independent thinking ability. The book has more than 800,000 words, which has been included in the publishing plan of Fudan University Press in 2002.
During the period of 1993, the "national studies fever" quietly rose. Fudan University gave a lecture at the China Forum on the Essence of Traditional Philosophy, with Pan Fuen as one of the main planners and speakers. The main purpose of the forum is to preach to college students the "way to be a man" of China's traditional philosophy. This "forum" has effectively promoted the patriotic education of college students.
In Shanghai, Pan Fuen, as a professor who began to teach the history of China's philosophy in the 1950s, was relatively early among his peers. However, he is self-aware. He said frankly: "My academic achievements are limited, but I pay attention to the way of being a man, attach importance to academic ethics and ethics, and despise literati for flaunting their bad habits. The person I admire most in my life is Mr. Zhang Dainian. His moral demeanor and knowledge are our role models. I am fortunate to be a disciple, and I can't humiliate my teacher morally. " . In an exchange with Dai Nianshi, Pan Fuen said about the situation in Shanghai: "Zhangmen disciples can unite and cooperate whether in the room or in private. Academically learn from each other's strengths and be kind to others, which embodies the spirit of' harmony is precious'. " Mr. Dai nian wrote back and was sincerely happy about it.
Pan Fuen is very generous to his students. When they discuss problems with him, they sit in the spring breeze. Professor Pan believes that students, especially graduate students, generally have the ability of independent scientific research, and do not need to be bound by fixed frames. They should give full play to their strengths and let them develop freely. He often said, "Teachers are friends, and teachers and students should be friends." He warned students that although doctoral students in philosophy live in poverty, they should be willing to sit on the bench, apply what they have learned, cherish their three years of doctoral studies, and never go out for part-time profit. Don't get involved with "seawater" (doing business) during your blog. He also said that being a man and studying are like two sides of a coin, which are inseparable unity. He asked his students to do what he did. Professor Pan Fuen is a teacher and should be strict with himself everywhere.

Since 1956, Pan Fuen has made many reports on joining the Party, but failed to do so for various reasons. In fact, the main reason is the result of his cooperation with his friend Shi Changdong in writing a paper. When Shi Changdong was in trouble, Pan Fuen still cared about him like a brother, encouraging him to "live, and only by living can he do things". 1September 1983, Shi Changdong realized his wish to join the party organization before his death. Wen Wei Po reported the matter with the title "Shi Changdong, an aesthete, joined the Party". After the death of Shi Changdong, Pan Fuen wrote many applications for joining the Party. After he was over 60 years old, Pan Fuen wrote an endless application: "I am over 60 years old and want nothing more.
