摘　　要："象思维"是中医学最具代表性的思维方式之一,其形成与中国古代文化有着深厚的渊源。"象"的语义扩展和思想演变与古人早期的"通天"实践紧密相连。随着西周末期人文理性的逐渐觉醒,"象"的涵义从宗教神学背景下的"龟象"、"易象"实现了向自然之"道象"、"气象"的理性超越,"象"最终获得了作为"气"的显露萌兆的变化状态的本质内涵,并受秦汉系统宇宙模式的规范而具有了系统类化的特点。"象"作为认知中介的符号模式,在整个演变过程中保持着特有的连续性。成熟于这一时期的中医学正是基于这些人文领域的思想成果才建立起以"象"为理论特点和思维特点的理论体系。“Image” is one of the most representative thinking styles in TCM. It is closely connected with Chinese ancient culture. The extensions and changes of the meaning of this term are mostly involved in the attempts of the ancients to communicate with heaven. As the rise of human rationality at the end of Xizhou dynasty, its meaning was transformed from “Guixiang” and“Yixiang” in the context of religious theology to “Daoxiang” and “Qixiang” in the Spring and Autumn Period, and finally to the meaning formalized and systemized by “lei” affected by the systematic model of the cosmos in Qin and Han dynasty. There was a common cognitive sign pattern mediated by “image” that kept unchanged during the whole evolution. It was just based on these achievements that the theoretical system of TCM characterized by“image”was fully formed in these periods.
