In his earlier years, he especially emphasized the formalist meaning （not touching on content） of metaphysical concepts and propositions and defined the negative method too narrowly, leading to some theoretical confusion over the inherent unity of the two methods. In his later years, he employed the concept of the ＂concrete universal＂ to reflect on his philosophical system; while affirming the formalism of philosophical conceptual category, he revealed the ＂peculiar content＂ of the category as a means of grasping actuality and its intellectual movements, thus realizing the mutual accommodation of rationality and intuition （mystery）. A review of Feng＇s philosophical system in accordance with the theoretical reflections of his later years will indicate the consistency of his thought throughout his life. His new understanding of his own philosophical system and the nature of philosophy on the basis of the ＂concrete universal＂ was the logical outcome of his previous ideas. Only with this in mind will we be able to attain a better understanding of the methodology and true spirit of Feng＇s philosophy and draw inspiration for the contemporary reconstruction of Chinese philosophy and culture.展开更多
