近代温州医学代表人物和维新思潮

On modern representatives of Wenzhou medicine and their reform thoughts

维新思潮是近代温州知识群体的思想主流,对医学学术和医事活动的影响非常巨大和深刻;教育是晚清温州知识群体重要的维新实践,利济医院和利济医学堂即是这一维新实践的代表性产物。陈虬为思想家兼医者,徐定超则属官僚而兼医者,陈葆善为正式科班出身的医学家,而徐润之乃出身中医世家的民间医生。温州医学的四位代表人物出身不同,从医目的、医学经历不同,医学思想自然有别,他们的医事活动颇为全面地反映了近代温州医学的概貌。

Reform thought was the mainstream of thoughts among the modern Wenzhou intellectual communities. It exerted great and profound influences on medical learning and activities, with medical education as the chief reform practice of Wenzhou intellectual communities in the late Qing Dynasty. Liji Hospital and Liji Medical School were the symbols of the reform. Chen Qiu was a thinker and doctor; Xu Dingchao was an officer and doctor; Chen Baoshan was a professionally educated physician; and Xu Yunzhi was a folk doctor inherited the experiences handed down from his family. The four representatives of Wenzhou medicine, though with different social backgrounds, and their purpose of studying medicine and experience of being a doctor different alike, their medical thoughts are naturally different, reflected the overall condition of Wenzho medicine in the late Qing Dynasty.
