Abstract

In philosophical theory, the understanding of "truth" can be divided into axiological truth and epistemological truth. The truth in the axiological sense mainly involves the problem of meaning and value, while the truth in the epistemological sense involves the problem of the conformity between the subject of knowledge and the object of knowledge or the objective reality. From the epistemological point of view, we can clarify the difference between the coincidence theory and the Chinese Neo-Confucianism in the view of truth so that we can not only explain the truth of each theory but also understand the harmonious relationship between the two views of truth.
