嘉道学术中的近代转型趋势——以浙江学术为例

Tendency of Modern Transformation in Jia Dao(嘉道) Academic Learning:A Case Study of Zhejiang

从清代嘉道年间浙江学术的变迁可以看出,中国学术的近代转型并非始于鸦片战争之后。在嘉道年间,中国学术已经开始出现学术研究内容的世俗化、客观化,学术体系的多元化,研究方法和过程的实证化,以及学术寻求并锻造新义理等趋势。这一趋势也可以说是中国学术指向近代、或者说是可与近代相对接的发展趋势。因此,中国学术的近代化,并不完全是西学输入的作用,西学对中国学术近代化进程的促进、引导作用,是以中国学术本身的内部变异为前提和基础的。

Taking the rise and fall of Zhejiang learning during Jia Dao（嘉道）period of Qing Dynasty as an example,this article explores the modern transformation of Chinese academic learning.The author argues that the modern transformation of Chinese learning doesn＇t begin with the Opium War.During Jia Dao period,Chinese academic learning started to present a tendency of secularization and objectification in research contents,pluralism of the academic system,positivism of research method and process,as well as quest for new theory in academic research.This tendency may be considered as the development trend of Chinese academic learning to point to or connect with modern times.Therefore the modernization of Chinese academic learning cannot be entirely attributed to the import of Western knowledge,the internal variation of Chinese learning is the precondition for Western learning to function as a promoter in the transformation of Chinese learning.
