时间是哲学中一个非常复杂和基本的课题。中国传统哲学中蕴藏着浓厚的时间气质，这种气质在《周易》中有着非常强烈的体现，本文围绕《周易》中的时间观念进行了不同角度的分析，并在此基础上考察《周易》时间观涵养出的传统文化的几个特点。论文的第一部分解决的是时间的论述角度问题，即应该从哪些角度理解时间。时间问题相当复杂，如果不在研究之初界定好问题的探讨方向就很容易使问题陷入到纷繁无序的状态中，因此，本文先从对时间进行一般研究的几个重要维度入手，探究理解《周易》时间观念的几个可能的角度。这个部分分别论述了人们探讨时间问题时所引发的时间的运行形态、时间的向度和时间与空间之间的关系这三个重要问题。第二部分主要就《周易》中时间观念的形成原因以及特点做了阐释。首先，将“时”与“时间”做粗略的区分，使本文所要探讨的理论点更加明晰，并挖掘时间观念的形成过程及其特点之间的关系。其次，结合本文第一部分对时间问题所做的区分，说明《周易》中所表现的时间观念的特点，即《周易》中的时间既有循环的特点，也有线性发展的趋势；《周易》中涉及了时间的过去、现在和将来三个向度，但是对三者的重视程度是不同的，相较而言，《周易》更加注重未来；《周易》中的时间和空间的联系相当紧密，但是仍然保留着自己的相对独立性。总体上说，《周易》中的时间是有着生动生命特质的属人的时间。论文第三部分论述的是《周易》的成书过程和它的时间观念形成过程中所体现出来的思维特征，据此分析《周易》时间观念涵养出的民族文化中独特的精神气质：时间是在循环中线性发展的，而且未来在时间的三个向度中更具终极意义，因此要在保持忧患意识的前提下对未来充满信心，乐观奋进；《周易》中时间观念的形成过程表明取象思维和直觉体悟是中国传统思想中非常重要的组成部分，这使得中国传统文化没有沿着对因果关系探究的道路展开，而是向着关注整体性和直觉性的方向发展；中国文化之所以能够容忍因果律的缺失，使直觉体悟能够在中国萌发并成为中国文化异于西方文化的一大特征，正是因为中华文明中始终贯彻着“天人合一”之道，这种对人和宇宙以及二者间的整体关系的关注使中华文明既有维护自身稳定性的自觉，又有积极吸收外来文化的兼容气度。

Time is a very basic and complex philosophical question ，Chinese traditional philosophy contains strong temperament of time. This paper focus on the question of time in The zhouyi from different angles, and analyze the traditional culture based on this. The first part of this paper is to solve the problem that how to discuss the time. Since time is a very complicated problem ,it is very necessary to define the direction to avoid making the problems a state of disorder at the start of the studying. Therefore, this paper first studied from several important dimension of time. This section discusses three problem separately，the modality of time motion，the direction of time and the relationship between time and space .The following article provides a detailed explanation about the following two aspects ,the reason of the formation of the concept of the time ，and the characteristics of the concept of the time in The zhouyi.First, put the argument more accurate by the analysis of the two concepts shi and time, and then tries to explore the connection between the shaping of time concept and its characteristics. Secondly, combined with the first part of this text, the time concept in The zhouyi includes the characteristics of both circulation and linear; There are past, present and future of the three dimensions in The zhouyi, but they are not equal, comparatively speaking,it pays more attention to the future; The connection between time and space is quite closely ,but the time still retained its relative independence. Overall, the time in The zhouyi is the time of people. In the third part, the center is to discuss the thinking characteristics in the writing process of The zhouyi and the traditional culture Under the influence of concept of time. The features and characteristics of the concept of time in The zhouyi is a unique national culture spirit temperament, time is in the cycle of linear development, and in the three dimensions of time,future occupies a more important position, so it is necessary to be Positive and optimistic on the premise of keeping vigilance.The formation process of the concept of time in The zhouyi explains that imaginative thinking and intuitive thinking are very important parts of Chinese traditional culture ,which makes the lack of causality in China.Chinese culture is different from the western culture features by the theory that man is an integral part of nature,The Chinese traditional culture is concerned about the relationship between the universe and human, it treats them as a overall organization. As a result, The Chinese traditional culture has the quality of maintaining it's own stability, meanwhile,it can show the magnanimity to contain world mind.
