马克思对人的本质的探讨乃至最终形成科学的人的本质观,经历了一个由不成熟到成熟,从抽象上升到具体的演化过程,这一过程同他的整个思想形成过程是一致的。马克思对人的本质的探讨过程不仅体现了马克思关于人的本质的思想观点的转换,同时也体现了其对人的问题的研究方法论的根本转换。马克思关于人的本质理论的真正意义并不在于提供了所谓关于人的本质的经典定义,而在于为人们提供了一种研究人的本质的新方法,实现了一次研究视角的转换。 Marx’s discussion of the essence of human and even the scientific concept of human nature eventually went through a process of evolution from immaturity to maturity and from abstraction to concrete. This process is consistent with his entire thought-forming process. The process of Marx’s exploration of human nature embodies not only the conversion of Marx’s ideas on human nature, but also the fundamental conversion of his research methodology on human problems. The true meaning of Marx’s theory of human nature does not lie in providing the so-called classic definition of human nature, but rather in providing people with a new way of studying the nature of human beings and realizing a conversion from a research perspective.
