In terms of the construction of meaning, what  jingxue  (study of the classics) deals with is precisely the hermeneutics of the Confucian classics.  Jingxue  hermeneutics is fundamentally practical statecraft; therefore, its specific objectives do not point to an objective existence unrelated to human beings, but to  yi  (meaning) or  yili  (principles), otherwise known as  jingyi  (meaning of the classics) or  dayi  (profound significance). “The meaning of the classics” is the product of interpretation. In  jingxue  interpretation, this concept is a process of construction rather than one of finding or discovery; it has different connotations in different historical contexts. In terms of method, the objective of interpretation changed from  weiyan dayi  (profound significance conveyed through subtle words) to  yijing liyi  (basing one’s arguments on the Confucian classics) and thence to  yanyi  (deducing meaning). The method of  jingxue  hermeneutics also changed from  quzhe chengyi  (reaching meaning indirectly) to  tiren  (personal experience and cognition) and  hanyong  (deep immersion in the text). An in-depth study of the purpose, objective and methods of  jingxue  hermeneutics and their interrelationships can allows us to draw on them and stimulate the construction of contemporary Chinese hermeneutics.
