Abstract:The modern construction of Chinese classical studies aiming at holistic knowledge about the ancient classical world is on the way, and the philology as the basis of its common methodology with Western classical studies should be consciously explored. From this we can not only see the continuity of modern Chinese scholarship in sense of knowledge, but also its cosmopolitan nature. Starting from the method of philology, this paper explores the significance of expanding the study of Chinese philosophical history. On the one hand, it activates the ideology heritage of Qiang-Jia sinology in the field of modern Chinese philosophical research, on the other hand, it helps to break through the traditional limitation of thinking about the relationship between exegesis and philosophical study, and establish a new channel from the discourse text to the analysis of the philosophical argumentation. The “further explanation” of Chinese philosophy, which starts from philology and combines with the knowledge of modern linguistics, will be followed by the introduction of comparative literary and discourse semantic structure analysis to generate new knowledge about the philosophical form of Chinese philosophy. This may mean that the future of Chinese philosophy research will lead the tide in a worldwide discussion of general philosophy from linguistics.
