摘要:: 为研究儒家礼乐的认识论障碍，从认识论障碍的概念着手进行研究，认为从认识障碍与认识论障碍两个概念出发,可以较好理解儒家伦理特别是礼乐教化与修养的意义，了解礼乐对于克服人们之间限制性的重要意义。认识论障碍是因有认识障碍，不过前者强调认识中的个性因素导致人际之间对同一对象或概念解释上的差异，后者突出包括这些因素在内的那些影响人们把握真象的要素。为了克服与超越认识与认识论障碍，达到主体间的交往与沟通，力求在不同的解释和认知中找到可以沟通的根据或普遍性条件，所以它们都可以看作广义的克服认识论障碍的活动。人们如果不是在相互之间比谁更阴暗和残忍的话，那就需要以礼乐来安排和规范本能，然而礼乐都可能被其外在形式所遮蔽，还是没从根本上超越人类交往和认识的所有障碍，所以它们不能取代个体自觉的道德认识和道德修养。

Abstract:: To study the epistemological obstacles of Confucian ritual and music, the study was conducted from the concept of epistemological obstacles. From the two concepts of cognitive obstacle and epistemological obstacle, it can better understand the significance of Confucian ethics, especially the education and cultivation of ritual and music, and understand the importance of ritual and music to overcome the restriction between people. Epistemological obstacles are due to cognitive obstacles. However, the former emphasizes that personality factors in cognition lead to differences in the interpretation of the same object or concept between people. The latter highlights the factors that affect people’s grasp of the truth, including these factors. In order to overcome and transcend the obstacles of cognition and epistemology and achieve the interaction and communication between subjects, the basis or universal conditions for communication in different interpretations and perceptions are found. So they can all be regarded as generalized activities to overcome epistemological obstacles. If people are not darker and crueler than one another, it is necessary to arrange and regulate instincts by ritual and music. However, ritual and music may be obscured by their external forms, and they still do not fundamentally transcend all obstacles of human interaction and cognition, so they can not replace individual selfconscious moral cognition and moral cultivation.
