摘　　要： 近代中国社会正处于内外交攻的艰难境地,西方世界全面入侵,儒家制度化荡然无存,旧的社会秩序已被破坏,新的秩序尚未建立。以章太炎等人为代表的中国知识分子在危机面前试图用佛教来挽救日益沉沦的中华民族,他们以现实需求为旨归,不仅试图用佛教的核心理念来拯救世道人心,亦通过利用佛教思想、思辨性来整合、建构可与西方文化对抗的形而上学。这一行动促成了一股思想潮流,推动了佛教复兴的发展进程。通过对章太炎接受佛教之缘起及过程的探究,充分彰显宏观时代背景下有识之士以佛教救世意识的萌发和各种表现,为当前中国社会的道德建设、文化建设提供一定借鉴。 Modern China was faced with external and internal difficulties the invasion of western powers, the collapse of Confucian system, the destruction of old social order and the immature new order. The Chinese intellectu- als represented by ZHANG Taiyan tried to save the degenerate Chinese nation with Buddhism. With the aim of meeting the needs of reality, they not only tried to apply the main Buddhist concepts to saving social ethos but also utilized Buddhist ideas and reasoning to consolidate and construct the metaphysics which should be used to resist western culture. Their work facilitated a current of ideas and promoted the development of the revival of Buddhism. By probing the whys and the wherefores of ZHANG Taiyan accepting Buddhism, this article amply presents the ger- mination and demonstration of the consciousness of saving the world with Buddhism of the far - sighted personages under that certain time background in order to provide the experience for the moral and cultural construction of the present China.
