摘　　要：孔子所言“吾其为东周乎”竟为何意,这是《论语》学史上聚讼不已的一则公案。以“东周”为焦点,《论语》学史上形成了“兴周道于东方”说、“黜周王鲁”说、“东都·王朝”说和“成周”说四种观点。综合时代语境、思想观念和历史地理等因素,唯“成周”说最符合孔子思想本义。孔子以“王子朝之乱”时周敬王前往“成周”(东周)为借喻,表达了自己坚持恢复周代礼乐制度的政治态度。明析《论语·阳货》“吾其为东周乎”之本义,不仅有助于对相关经史问题的理解,窥探孔子“从周”政治思想的实践逻辑,亦可为以史证经提供一个有效的方法论之案例。The meaning of"wu qiwei Dongzhou hu"(吾其为东周乎,I am concerned about the Eastern Zhou)in The Analects of Confucius has been debated in the academic circle.Four different interpretations have been raised.Among them,only the theory of that Dongzhou(东周)refers to Cheng Zhou(成周)is acceptable.By saying so,Confucius used the story of King Jing of Eastern Zhou(周敬王)as a metaphor to express his determination of restoring the Zhou ritual system.A clear analysis of the original meaning of this saying in The Analects of Confucius would be helpful to understand Confucius'practical logic of"following the Zhou Dynasty".It is also a meaningful practical case of using historical evidences to achieve interpretation of the Confucian classics.
