林纾文化立场的再认识

Reinterpretation of the cultural stand of Lin Shu

林纾并不认为西方文化完美无缺,悉皆可学。林纾的文化立场仍可以用"中体西用"这一术语来概括,但"体"的含义是强调中华文化特别是儒家文化的独有价值及其所代表的民族性必须坚守,"用"的含义是强调西方文化可以激活中华文化并使之实现现代转型。林纾也表现出一种试图儒化西学或者援西学以入儒的意图。

Lin Shu claims that the western cuhure is not per{ect, so borrowing is advised, where by Chinese Confucian culture may be blended with the borrowed western culture. This helps with the revival and modernization of the Chinese culture.
