留欧学人李思纯及其《金陵日记》

Li Sichun and His Jinling Diary

李思纯1919年留学欧洲,1923归国,时或为官,然主要从教高校。与梁启超、王国维、陈寅恪、吴宓等众多著名学者和文化名人过从密切,是当时学人圈中的活跃人物和知名学者。但因李氏辞世较早,其名鲜为当代学界所知。李氏在1946年赴南京出席"制宪国大"期间写下了一部记事甚详的《金陵日记》。手稿为李氏家人珍藏了半个多世纪未为人知。其中涉及众多人物与事件,尤其是对"国大"细节,李氏政治态度,生活情境反映真切,呈现出一个颇具多样性的历史"世界"。

In 1919,Li Sichun went to study in Europe,and back to China in 1923.He held an official post for some time,but,in most of his time,he was teaching in higher institutions.He maintained close relations with such famous celebrities as Liang Qichao,Wang Guowei,Chen Yange and Wu Mi.He was very active in the community of scholars at that time.Yet Li Sichun died so young that he was not well-known to the academic society in his time.In 1946 when he went to Nanjing for the Constitution Congress,he wrote a very detailed Jinling Diary.His manuscript of this diary was very confidentially kept by his relatives for more than half a century.Recorded in the diary are many important persons and political incidents,which reflect the details of the Constitution Congress,Li's political attitudes and life conditions,which present a world of varieties in the history.
