摘要
德字自商代出现，其最初的含义是“以弓缚首，牵之以祭”，用来赞美征服者的胜利。德在西周时被赋予普遍道德的含义，并由此产生了“以德配天”的政治法律观念。春秋末期产生的儒家在此基础上创立了“德治”的理论。德观念的演变正是那个时代社会大变革的反映。
The Chinese character de was originally used to indicat e “binding the head of cattle for sacrifice ritual”, when it was first used in Zhou Dynasty to accolade the victory of the conqueror. De was given the meaning of universal morality, and the political and legal concept of supreme morality was brought up in the West Zhou Dynasty based on which the confucienists arisen during the late Spring-Autumn period created their theory of 'rule of morality'. The evolution of the concept of de was an expression of the great social change at that time.
